EW has learned that actress Jessica Biel has decided to pass on playing Wonder Woman in Warner Bros. live-action adaptation of Justice League of America. The former 7th Heaven star had been in early talks to play the Amazonian princess. She's currently shooting the drama Powder Blue with Forest Whitaker. —Nicole Sperling

This movie has "train wreck" written all over it.

I'm glad their first choice actors are passing (Welling, Biel) just because it may piut the brakes on them rushing this into porduction when it is so obviously flawed.

Can a live-action JLA movie work? Sure, but so far nothing that has been reported makes me think this one will.

Good for the movie also, i dont think she would have fit the role.

Just find some no name actors that can act and look that part. im sure there is people out there that wil put there heart and soul into the roles for a shot at stardom, rather then people like holley berry screwing up storm in x-men etc.....

Plus pay them less mula and more mula into the graphics!!!

I agree completely.... WB will screw this up if they continue at this pace.....

They need to follow through with Batman & give SInger a chance to correct the situation involving Superman

DC/WB may end up shooting themselves in the foot with this movie. Think about it: if the movie is awful, it's not just connected to one of their top characters, it involves ALL of their top characters.

Too bad, I'd have loved to see her in that costume.

When did Tom Welling pass on Supes?

So..since many of you didn't like the idea of Biel being WW, who would you guys want? I honestly have no idea who I'd pick.

Small? Is she a teenietiny? In Blade III she looked like an amazon. I don't know why everyone was so down on her. She could have pulled it off.

Jess is super hot and all (can't wait for this powder blue movie, yay for boobies :D) but i can't see her as WW at all. shame this movie wasn't made a few years ago, i think a slightly younger Jennifer Connoly would have been perfect for the part

she's a stretch at 5'7"

she looked bigger because Snipes is a whopping 5'10" (if that)

Thank Goodness.This would have been as bad of a choice as Jennifer Garner as Elektra.:puke2:

I'd favor a younger Krista Allen or Monica Bellucci for the part myself:thumbs2:

Actress's name is Cobie Smulders. I have a thought that she'd be fantastic in the role of WW.

i still say Jennifer Connoley from a few years back would've been perfect, got the body, face and she can actually act
