EXCLUSIVE: Shannyn Sossamon In Contention for Wonder Woman in 'Justice League of America'

Cinematical has learned conclusively that actress Shannyn Sossamon (A Knight's Tale, One Missed Call) has auditioned for director George Miller for the upcoming film Justice League of America. Details are scarce, but we know the following: Sossamon did audition for Princess Di and she apparently blew away the writing team of Kieran and Michele Mulroney and has heard back from them since. According to our source, the Mulroneys were so taken with Sossamon that they championed her to director Miller, even going so far as to state that they had envisioned Sossamon in the Amazonian role all along. But now comes the bad news ... our source also tells us that Miller was less than over the moon about Sossamon's audition (or just didn't see her as being the right casting fit), which means that a resulting stalemate will almost certainly break in his favor. The audition apparently took place sometime prior to the recent 'Young Hollywood' open casting call, and that's all we know at this point.

No further details about the project have leaked out in the last couple of days, and all of Hollywood is waiting for word on who will land the coveted roles of Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, Flash, Aquaman and Green Lantern. Oh, and that Martian Manhunter guy, too. Other actors known to have thrown their tights into the ring include Adam Brody, Mary Elizabeth Winstead, Common, and Teresa Palmer, of Wolf Creek, who I think would do a bang-up job. Stay tuned for Cinematical as we continue to try to eek out more details of this and other fabulous pre-strike projects! As a footnote, we can also confirm earlier reports that Warner Bros. is in a tizzy over how the film's title will play worldwide, considering how, you know, the rest of the world hates America.

The title of this thread makes it sound like she "blew it"--like she did badly. But she didn't, it sounds like. Sounds like the opposite.

Yeah, she's a pretty crappy actress. One of the crappiest around

Pilaf, you get a billion points for "the Josh Hartnett boner movie."

**Pilaf** · October 18th, 2007, 06:03 PM

I drew a blank on the title. 40 Days & Nights or something?

Lilly loses a billion points for attacking the #1 in my spank bank.......

Leave Shanny ALLLOOOONE.

She is no Wonder Woman, she doesn't favor her at all.

Too damn skinny. I bet something got blown. *wink wink*

She's one of those actresses where I know the name but can't for the life of me remember the face. For some reason I keep thinking of Piper Perabo but I'm pretty sure they don't look alike.

Why don't they just call it "Justice League" no America about it and be done with it?

I can see Megan Fox as Wonder Woman as young Hollywood goes.

Hahahaha that movie was so lame, I especially hated that flower/sex scene. I too think she's a crappy actress. My apologies Soth...

Didn't she name her kid Audio Science or something equally strange?
I like her cause she doesn't fit in with the "mold" but I thought they'd go with someone more "pop" for this role.

Lax - I love your guts but I have shanny whenever I boot up my comp. My love for her will never die and I think she'd be fantastic in the role.

Yanna - George would NEVER go for Megan Fox, God you would have been closer with LaBoef
