Jessica Biel Reconsiders Wonder Woman Role

By Anne M. on 05.18.2009

Megan Fox may have brushed off Wonder Woman as “lame”, but Jessica Biel isn’t as fast to dismiss the DC hero. Although maybe I should say she isn’t as fast to dismiss the hero now.

You see, Biel had her chance at the part back in 2007 and passed on the project, instead choosing quality films like “I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry”.  Meanwhile, the Wonder Woman project hung around in development purgatory, giving her time to reconsider.

But!  Don’t be fooled by the flip-flop, friends. Ms. Biel might be rethinking her decision, but she still has standards.  “If Wonder Woman had the right script and it was really powerful and emotional and interesting, I would be into that kind of thing. I feel that sometimes the character development gets thrown to the wayside in those movies, and I’m really interested in that kind of thing.  So if both the elements could be there—the physicality and a real developed character, whether it’s a Wonder Woman thing or a Justice League thing—I’m open to it.”

As far as the casting goes, Biel is athletic enough, but beyond that? Personally, I’m wondering what Morena Baccarin is up to these days.  On the other hand, I’ve read that the Justice League filmmakers are eying Megan Gale for WW in their flick, which may carry across to the solo film.  Time and telling, I suppose.

Now, I believe this is the part of the article where I’m supposed to make crude, sexual Wonder Woman and/or Jessica Biel innuendo, right?  Sorry, Biel has never done it for me, so I’m finding the innuendo-summoning difficult.  To make it up to you, here’s a picture of Jessica in a swimsuit.

Oooh, hang about, I’ve got one!  She’s a “real developed character”, all right.  Eh?  Eh?  No?  What about this, then:  Oh, I’ll bet you’re into “that kind of thing”, Jessica.  Better?
