« Today's News: Our Take
Biel May Lasso Wonder Woman Gig, More Film News
Jessica Biel by Lester Cohen/ WireImage.com
You know I'm all about Ms. Charisma, but I could kinda see this: Jessica Biel is in talks to make Wonder Woman's cups runneth over in the Justice League of America film, says Variety. The studio has no comment on the buzz, instead saying it will announce its Batman, Aquaman et al all at once, at a later date.... Jennifer Aniston is a floral designer who befriends Aaron Eckhart's hypocritical self-help guru in the drama Traveling.... Kevin James will write, produce and star as a Mall Cop thrust into comedic action when a band of thieves take over his turf.... Rachel McAdams, Helen Mirren and Robin Wright Penn have come on board State of Play, an adaptation of the U.K. miniseries.

NOOOOOOOOOO! This has got to be played by Charisma. Anyone who watched the Angel episodes where she was the princess (i don't remember the season, but it's when Fred was introduced), anyway, she was beautiful, she could definitely make Wonder Woman's outfit look smokin.

I agree about Charisma.
But, damn, Biel is pretty hot. I might actually have to start batting for the other team if this happens... I'm already giddy thinking about her in the outfit... stop!
I need to go stare at some guys in their jockeys now....

I think Biel would be perfect for this role. I mean, both actresses can really act, so I'm glad to see they're casting for more than just filling out the costume. But, honestly, I can see Biel in the role more than Carpenter.

Add me to Camp Charisma! Jessica Biel may be the va-voom du jour (not that there's anything wrong with that - especially with that body!), but I can see Charisma filling out Wonder Woman's bustier... not to mention that she's also got the booty to fit in those tights. More importantly, I look at Charisma and see her as a warrior princess, whereas with Jessica, I see her as just the warrior. (Hmm, maybe she can play Artemis [one of Diana's fellow Amazons in the DC books]...)

Wow! It's true. A movie can jump the shark as early as the casting phase.

PS: Lauren should play Aphrodite, Athena or, if Lynda Carter passes on it, Hippolyta.

I think Jessica Biel is a tad You-Gi-Lee especially with those big plastic surgery cheeks.
If they did it correctly they would cast based on who could pass as a clay transformed to human princess warrior and that would be none other than Lucy Lawless as Wonder Woman.
Halle Berry is absolutely beautiful but she was a horrible choice to play Storm, in the comic book storm is about 6' 4" tall African Queen well Halle not so much.

I love Charisma-and I definitely think she can get the look of Wonder Woman right-But I'm concerned about the voice. I think once she opens her mouth it will ruin any illusion of her being the warrior princess!
Quick disclaimer-No, I have never spoken to the actual WW, so no, I don't know what see really sounds like, and Charismas' voice if fine-just in other roles..........IMO!
Have to try and keep a step ahead of those evil opinion bashers!!

Jessica Biel is a horrible choice. Charisma and Lucy Lawless are too old to be WW now. Ten years ago it might work.
Morena Baccarin would be a better Joss-related selection than Charisma. She's just not that hot anymore.

Pft. Wonder Woman talk. Whatever.
The real news is Helen Mirren and Rachel McAdams together in a film? That's AWESOME.

Biel is okay. She's smoking but thats not all that it is about. She didn't exactly sparkle in Blade 3. Jennifer Garner would be the best wonder woman.
