Could Jennifer Love Hewitt Be Wonder Woman?
The Hollywood ladies all want to be Wonder Woman.
Even though a live-action take on the tiara-wearing, gold-bracelet-sporting, Amazonian superhero has been stuck in development hell for years, a wide swath of actresses has been itching to don that star-spangled suit and bring Wonder Woman back into the pop-culture mainstream.
Beyoncé has said she’d like a shot. Vanessa Hudgens wants a go. Keri Russell actually portrayed Wonder Woman, albeit in voice only for an animated DVD. Jessica Biel hasn’t ruled out taking the part. Meanwhile, Megan Fox has been outspoken in her criticism of the character. And then there’s talk of supermodel Megan Gale and “Legend of the Seeker” star Bridget Regan.
Of course, at this point, there are only rumors that a big-screen adaptation is finally moving forward. That hasn’t stopped another actress — perhaps an unlikely candidate for superhero-dom — from volunteering for the gig.
“I want to play Wonder Woman really badly,” Jennifer Love Hewitt told MTV News at San Diego Comic Con. “I want them to make the movie of Wonder Woman, and I want to play Wonder Woman so bad. That’d be really fun.”
From “Ghost Whisperer” and “Garfield” to a super-strong woman with an invisible plane and a Lasso of Truth? Hewitt told us she simply wants to do an action movie, mentioning “Tomb Raider” as another possibility. But she thinks she’d be the perfect fit for Wonder Woman, and she ticked off the reasons why.
“Curvaceous,” she began. “Gold bracelets! Look at these wrists — tell me gold bracelets would not look good! And I love little tiaras, and Wonder Woman got to wear one of those. I’m very athletic.”

Jennifer Love Hewitt’s Comic Book Series Is A “Very Fun Nightmare”
Jennifer Love Hewitt’s comic book series is like “a very fun nightmare.” The “Ghost Whisperer” star was thrilled and terrified when she was asked to create “The Music Box,” a 10-issue horror comic about an evil music box, but is very proud of the finished product.
The 30-year-old actress explained: “The chance to create my very own comic, and a horror/thriller at that, is like a very fun nightmare come true.”
“I’ve always been fascinated by the notion that an inanimate object can hold as much malevolent energy as a human being can. And when the two meet, or are at cross purposes, very bad things can happen.”
“I’m so proud of ‘The Music Box’ and can’t wait for people to read it… with the lights on, of course!”
Jennifer was recently forced to deny rumors she is engaged to her co-star Jamie Kennedy after it was reported he proposed live on stage at California’s Laugh Factory.
Her representative said: “There is no truth to the report.”
Jamie, who has been dating Jennifer since earlier this year, also blasted the engagements claims – insisting he would never have proposed in such an unromantic setting.
He wrote on his Twitter blog: “There’s a lil rumor going round that i got down on one knee in Long beach. If i was gonna get down on one knee do u think i wud do it in the LBC???? I mean i’m down with Snoop but L Beach dosent scream Romance. I luv my girl and wen it happens you’ll be the first to know (sic).”

Jennifer Love Hewitt Creates Comic Book Series
ET has the latest on Jennifer Love Hewitt’s ten-issue, thrilling comic book series.
Jennifer Love Hewitt’s The Music Box details a mystifying music box that creates bizarre occurrences for those that possess it. Each story from the anthology is a standalone tale.
“The chance to create my very own comic, and a horror/thriller at that, is like a very fun nightmare come true,” said Hewitt. “I’ve always been fascinated by the notion that an inanimate object can hold as much malevolent energy as a human being can. And when the two meet, or are at cross purposes, very bad things can happen. I’m so proud of The Music Box and can’t wait for people to read it… with the lights on, of course!”
The first issue of Jennifer Love Hewitt’s The Music Box debuts in November 2009.

Ghost Whisperer panel unveils new game, comic – Comic-Con Report
When I looked at the panel schedule for Comic-Con International, I asked myself, “What’s Ghost Whisperer doing on there? Really? Ghost Whisperer?”
I have nothing against the show, and I guess it has supernatural elements that put it in enough of a genre category to qualify for Comic-Con treatment. But I thought it was just an uber-sensitive, feminine product.
Then again, when you consider how Twilight dominated this convention, “chick stuff” ruled the day. There’s no reason why Ghost Whisperer can’t have its moment, too.
So, creators took the chance to announce two product tie-ins coming for Whisperer fans.
First, a Ghost Whisperer video game is in the works. Entitled Ghost Whisperer: Shadowlands, the game will have players become Jennifer Love Hewitt’s character, Melinda Gordon. I think it’s safe to assume you’ll prettily and petitely glide about whispering to ghosts and solving their problems. It’s not something I’m likely to give up EA Sports’ College Football for, but to each her own.
Also, Hewitt is teaming up with IDW Publishing to release her own comic — The Music Box. It’s not strictly Ghost Whisperer-based, but it’s Hewitt’s baby. The 10-issue anthology series details a music box that causes strange occurrences for the people who possess it.
The Music Box hits stands in November.

Ghost Whisperer Travels Back to the Future
We have so much juicy goodness to share from the Ghost Whisperer panel at Comic-Con that Grandview’s town square—which, coincidentally, was also used as the set for the Back to the Future film trilogy—can’t contain it.
Most important, we meet the new addition to Melinda’s family: baby Aiden Lucas (star Jennifer Love Hewitt confirmed to us that he will be taking his, um, stepfather’s name).
But Aiden will only be a baby for a “moment,” said J.Love, at least in our eyes: “Then we will jump the season five years in the future”—and see that 5-year-old Aiden (Connor Gibbs) is “more powerful” than even his preternatural mother.
Haunted Hospital? Show runner P.K. Simonds revealed: “We have a brand-new mythology, a place that becomes very central to the characters’ world [and] careers that people are building.” And Jim (David Conrad) is now building a new career as a physician—Dr. Sam Lucas? (This sounds like a great storyline for General Hospital. Kidding!) The idea of a haunted hospital is not such a huge leap, right? Anyway, said P.K., “You’ll find out in the first episode,” so if our guess is wrong, you can yell at us when the new season premieres on Sept. 25—also Melinda’s due date! (“What a coincidence!” exclaimed executive producer Ian Sander during the panel.)
Romance for Everyone…Except Eli? Since the show is set five years in the future, Ned (the adorable Christoph Sanders, who told us how excited he is to finally be playing his own age) is in college…and dating: “He gets to make out with lots of hot girls,” giggled J.Love. Like son, like mother: Delia (Camryn Manheim), too, will be enjoying an active love life. As for Eli, Jamie Kennedy pointed out, “I had a girlfriend in the last episode and she got killed.” He was also asked whether all his girlfriends on the show would kick the bucket. “Yes,” responded his real-life girlfriend. “They will all die. And then I will cross them over.”
Meet the Parents: At least Eli “gets a very, very interesting family,” according to Love. The third episode introduces his father (’70s cult star Barry Newman) and mother (Christine Estabrook—Desperate Housewives’ nasty blackmailer Martha Huber). But Jamie alluded to daddy being a ghost in the panel (spoiler slip?), so we know at least one of his folks is dead.
Bringing Up Baby: Family is an important theme this new season—especially because of Grandview’s “extra-special” new star, Aiden, said show runner Simonds: “Melinda is a character who can see and hear things that the rest of us can’t. Wouldn’t it be interesting if someone could [sense] things that even she can’t? This child…introduces us [not only] to new characters but really to a kind of whole dimension. What happens to these spirits when they cross over? We never answered that question, really very deliberately. But now we’re going to get some really big hints about where beings go. Where spirits go after they leave this plane, their earthbound existence. And what that gives to us is a lot of stories. But also some real brand-new, very intense jeopardy…This is a child [who] because of his gifts has a greater responsibility. [Those are] big shoes to fill.”
If anyone can fill those shoes, it’s Melinda. And we’ll be there when she kicks off the fifth season of Ghost Whisperer on Friday, Sept. 25, at 8 p.m. on CBS.
