A deal is being made between Jessica Biel's management and Warner Bros. so that the actress can play Wonder Woman in 'Justice League of America'.
Jessica Biel is set to play Wonder Woman. The '
I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry' star - who is currently dating
Justin Timberlake - is said to be in talks with film bosses to star as the sexy superhero in a movie version featuring the Justice League of America, a crime fighting superhero team featured in DC comics.
A representative for Jessica, 25, said: "It's too early to confirm the deal will go ahead." Warner Bros. also refused to comment on Jessica's involvement in the movie.
'Babe' director George Miller will helm the live-action film which is based on the comic book which brings Batman, Superman and Wonder Woman together, along with a host of other DC superheroes. Jessica is currently shooting '
Powder Blue' with Oscar-winning actor
Forest Whitaker and
Ray Liotta.
Jessica is one in a long line of stars tipped to play Wonder Woman. 'The O.C.' star
Rachel Bilson was recently said to be taking on the role. Other actress' rumored to be donning the famous cape included
Catherine Zeta-Jones and
Cameron Diaz. 'Van Helsing' actress
Kate Beckinsale turned down the part saying she "did not want to embarrass her daughter" by wearing the revealing red, gold and blue outfit.
The character was made famous by Lynda Carter in the classic 70s TV series. 'Buffy the Vampire Slayer' creator Joss Whedon was originally planning a big screen adaptation, but abandoned the project in February.
