Live-Action Wonder Woman returns

After years of trying to get DC's Amazonian Princess, Wonder Woman, to the big screen, there's now some serious movement to get her on the small one.

According to THR's The Live Feed, freakin' David E. Kelley (Ally McBeal, Boston Legal, The Practice) is developing the modern day reboot of the super-strong, scantily-clad comic book heroine for Warner Bros. Television! For years, the likes of Joss Whedon and Joel Silver have attempted to get a Wonder Woman movie off the ground, but it never worked out. So now it looks like the character is returning to the medium that brought her great fame in the 1970s, via the classic (albiet very cheesy) Lynda Carter series.

There are no more details as of yet, including a possible network, but that doesn't mean that we can't kick off a storm of rampant internet speculation! Who will play her? What will her new costume look like? Will the storylines be faithful to the comics? And what will a guy like David E. Kelly -- known for his dialouge-heavy legal series -- do with an action-oriented character like Wonder Woman?

with today's standards her look will be killed.

I don't see this going very well. Her look would be killed by being too covered up or overly scantly clad.

well hopefully they can make a decent series that won't kill the name of the show.

I hope it does not feel like a Smallville spin-off and has a good plot that is original.

I believe Wonder Woman was never in Smallville. I don't see WW getting the same rattings as Smallville as well.

you never know, I believe the old show was very popular. So if the new one is made just as good, then it could rival smallville.
