Hollywood actress Jessica Biel has reportedly turned down the chance to play comic book superhero Wonder Woman.

The 25-year-old was last week said to be in talks to take on the role in the forthcoming movie Justice League Of America.

But U.S. publication Entertainment Weekly claims that the Illusionist star has followed in Kate Beckinsale's footsteps and declined the part.

The film – which will be directed by George Miller - will follow the adventures of an elite group of superheroes, including Batman, Wonder Woman, Superman, Aquaman and the Flash.
