Hollywood actress Jessica Alba has been voted as the sexiest film superhero.

The 26-year-old bagged the title for her role as Sue Storm in the Marvel comics based Fantastic Four movies. The second slot went to actress Jennifer Garner for her portrayal of Elektra in Daredevil/Elektra, while Halle Berry stood third as Storm in X-Men in the Pearl & Dean poll.

Hugh Jackman was voted the sexiest man for his role of Wolverine in X-Men, while the original superhero Superman Brandon Routh only managed the fifth position.
