As previously reported on Nerdsociety, NBC had greenlighted a Wonder Woman pilot to be written and produced by David E. Kelley of Harry’s Law and Ally McBeal, a guy who obviously has a lot of experience writing for strong female characters. According to Deadline Hollywood, Adrianne Palicki has landed the title role in the reboot. She was reportedly the only actress called in to screen test. You also might recognize her from Friday Night Lights, Legion and Electra Luxxx. The director of the pilot Jeff Reiner, coincidentally, also directed Friday Night Lights.
Wonder Woman is described as a corporate executive by day and a crime fighter by night. This just might be one of the most anxiously awaited TV pilots in a long time.
