Wonder Woman

[Emperor]

For the record, I think bring this show back to TV is terrible... ala Bionic Woman and The Cape. With that said I like the actress they selected.

 

 

Adrianne Palicki, all 5’11 of her, will play Diana Themyscira in the pilot for David E. Kelley’s contemporary NBC reboot of “Wonder Woman.”

 

If the rumors were true, Palicki was on the short list to play the same Amazon princess in George Miller’s aborted “Justice League” movie.

 

The actress is likely best known as the towering player-dater on another NBC series, “Friday Night Lights.” She also starred on Fox's short lived "Lone Star" and in the upcoming big-screen remake of "Red Dawn."

 

The project is rare detour into the fantastic for Kelley, who earlier created "Ally McBeal," "The Practice," "Chicago Hope," "Picket Fences," "Boston Legal" and "Harry's Law."

Actually, I can see Wonder Woman being a good show, if they go the Smallwood route with it (make it at least as much about her struggling to deal with her powers/fit in as it is about fighting bad guys), and de-power her a bit. Odds are the "invisible airplane" will be gone, too.

WHATTTTT!!!!!! No invisible plane no show... I mean really.. IT"S INVISIBLE!!!! So it looks like she's flying but she's not! right thats cool, it's just too bad they never figured out how to make her invisible while she was flying it....

Again sounds like a bomb to me based on the below info.

 

We know it’s out there—David E. Kelly’s script for “Wonder Woman” tempted industry execs and ultimately landed a deal for the show at NBC. (And a popular rumor has McG favored to direct the pilot.)

 

As to what the TV reboot — and Wonder Woman herself — will look like, well... there just might be a way to find out. Claiming to have scooped a draft of said “Wonder Woman” pilot script, Bleeding Cool has paraphrased some of its elements (without spoilers), including takes on comics continuity and windows into the character that is Wonder Woman, a.k.a. Diana Prince, a.k.a. Diana Themyscyra.

 

That’s right, this hero has three separate identities. Of course everything about the supposed script is unconfirmed, and even if the scoop proves valid, these points might not make it to any version of the show seen by human eyes. So read on with a grain of salt!

The potential pilot is said to include plenty of characters and storylines from the comics, as well as a few reinterpretations and straight-up additions. Here are some of the highlights (and possibly, lowlights) of the alleged script:

 

- Diana has a BFF named Myndi Mayer, with whom she has ice-cream sleepovers.

 

- Etta Candy makes an appearance.

 

- Diana has a government-affiliated boyfriend named Steve Trevor, who, according to the site, “crashed onto Wonder Woman’s island and brought her back to New York, but now they’ve split up.” Their relationship is said to be a focus.

 

- Within the pilot, Diana does not have an invisible jet — she does, however, have her famous lasso and bullet-deflecting bracelets.

 

- Veronica Cale is Diana’s nemesis, and “an evil scientist and rival businesswoman with a secret, nefarious plan...”

 

- Wonder Woman doesn’t just double as Diana Prince, but juggles a third role as “Diana Themyscyra,” the head of Themiscyra industries. While “Diana Prince” functions as a disguise, Themyscyra is the fully public Wonder Woman while she’s not in costume. (The blog makes an analogy to Iron Man and his off-time persona, Tony Stark.)

 

- There’s a “CSI-ish” group of 20-somethings that live in Diana’s basement and probably help Diana solve crimes.

 

- Finally, with a seemingly satirical nod, Diana deals with the daily marketing and merchandising of her commercialized hero persona. (Apparently there is a joke regarding Wonder Woman’s recent comic makeover and costumed dolls.)
