That Young Wonder Woman TV Show Is Being “Redeveloped”

by Jill Pantozzi | 2:00 pm, May 16th, 2013

When we first heard there was going to be another attempt at a Wonder Woman television show after the failed attempt that was David E. Kelley’s pilot, we were shocked. We got as far as character descriptions and even a few actors’ names being thrown in the ring to play Princess Diana but then came a pause, one we hoped didn’t mean the end of the project. Thankfully, we can now report the series, titled Amazon, is still being worked on.

Sarah Michelle Gellar and Robin Williams Team up To Kill Vampires – I Mean, Make a Sitcom

by Susana Polo | 4:18 pm, February 19th, 2013

If Robin Williams and Sarah Michelle Gellar were to engage in a successful television phenomenon it would be a significant to return to television for both of them. Williams hasn’t been a television regular since Mork & Mindy, and while Gellar recently graced screens in Ringer, the show was short lived. And that’s what, according to Deadline, is happening.

Thor’s Jaimie Alexander On Wonder Woman: It’s Embarrassing For Me As A Woman

by Jill Pantozzi | 2:03 pm, January 10th, 2013

Thor star Jaimie Alexander’s name is one that pops up frequently on dream casting for Wonder Woman, and if you saw her kicking butt as Sif, you know why. But while the actress herself would love to play Diana, she’s not sure she actually would if asked. Why? Well because no one treats Wonder Woman with respect, of course. Click ahead to see the awesome truths Alexander laid down recently about women in superhero properties.

Joss Whedon Knows Why David E. Kelley’s Wonder Woman Failed, It Rhymes With Mavid B. Jelly

by Jill Pantozzi | 4:00 pm, September 16th, 2012

Joss Whedon is in the exclusive hands of Marvel for the next two years which means he’ll have nothing to do with the planned Wonder Woman television show on the CW but that doesn’t mean he won’t stop talking about the Amazon Princess. In fact, he recently had a few words to say about David E. Kelley’s failed pilot.

This is Not A Drill: The CW Is Developing A Young Wonder Woman Show

by Susana Polo | 5:50 pm, September 6th, 2012

If someone was thinking about making a Wonder Woman show, you would want to know, right? No matter how many times we’ve been burned? No matter how early in the production it is? No matter if it’s just a concept and not a script?

Yeah. I know. I’d want to know too.

Oh No They Didn’t! NBC Recycles Failed Wonder Woman Pilot Costume On Lois Lane

by Jill Pantozzi | 11:05 am, December 30th, 2011

You may think that sounds like the most ridiculous title in the world and you’d be right. This is really happening. Smallville’s Lois Lane, Erica Durance, will be sporting Adrianne Palicki’s failed Wonder Woman pilot outfit when she guest stars on David E. Kelley’s Harry’s Law. We are not amused. Hit the jump for the reveal.

Smallville’s Lois Thinks She’s Wonder Woman On David E. Kelley’s Harry’s Law

by Jill Pantozzi | 11:50 am, November 16th, 2011

Erica Durance, who played Lois Lane on the CW’s Smallville, has just been cast as Wonder Woman. Sort of. David E. Kelley, you know, the guy who tanked his Wonder Woman televisions series? He’s chosen Durance to play “a psychologically infirm woman who retreats into the persona of the DC Comics heroine to help wreak revenge on perpetrators of domestic abuse,” on his dramedy Harry’s Law. David, slowly back away from the Amazon Princess.

The Wonder Woman Pilot Has Not Been Picked Up For A Series

by Megan Arellano | 1:14 pm, May 13th, 2011

Wonder Woman, we hardly knew ye.

Oh wait — yes we did.

That’s why we’re not too sad that Entertainment Weekly has reported that NBC passed on the revamped Wonder Woman. Is this a jab at all the women-in-something-arms across the nation? Well, we’ve decided not to take it that way. So why did they pass?

Was Wonder Woman Picked Up For A Series?

by Jamie Frevele | 1:58 pm, May 11th, 2011

Some vague news about David E. Kelley‘s new Wonder Woman series is coming through the wires today saying that it’s been picked up by NBC for a full series. This would be a good sign of the quality of the show (among television executives and test audiences, at least), but its fate still looks a bit unclear for the moment.

Lynda Carter Might Be In The Wonder Woman Show

by Susana Polo | 1:57 pm, April 20th, 2011

For many people Lynda Carter is the definitive Wonder Woman, for her starring role in the 1975-79 television series. And though she hasn’t had many other screen credits, she’s still a lady with great class, and has never forgotten that Wonder Woman put her on the map.

Fans of Carter should be excited to know that she’s been talking to David E. Kelly, writer and director behind the new Wonder Woman show as well. From Monsters and Critics:

The 59-year-old actress revealed she had been in talks with writer David E. Kelley but refused to confirm whether she would have a role.

‘I’ve talked to David E. Kelley, who’s a brilliant writer, a number of times and we’re hoping to plan something,’ she said. ‘But I cannot reveal.’
