NBC Passes on Wonder Woman Pilot

Do you see that Invisible Jet? Yeah...neither do we.

After initially being turned down by NBC, and later greenlit by the network's new governing body, David E. Kelley's much-talked-about Wonder Woman television series has not been picked up.

Planned as a serious, real-world take on the life and times of DC's Amazon princess, Kelley's pilot gained a lot of attention from the fan community after the release of the first costume photo. Photos from the set followed, featuring a revamped costume and showing actress Adrianne Palicki in action.

With the hype (and costume controversy) that has surrounded this project, it is likely that the pilot might see the light of day, even if the series will not.  This assumption is based on the precedent set by the 2007 Aquaman pilot, starring Smallville's Green Arrow, Justin Hartley. That fully-produced pilot was released through iTunes and sold as a Best Buy exclusive.

So, there is still hope, fanboys.  You may get to see Adrianne Palicki kicking ass in her skinny jeans after all!

Twitterer @WonderBoyLB managed to snag some footage of our leading lady in action as well. You can catch that here at his Twitvid page.

It looks like they made a few alterations to the costume, but I'm not sure if it helps or hinders... I still think she looks like someone who got confused as to the exact date of Halloween. It makes one wonder whether NBC really cares about this show or not.

First Look at Adrienne Palicki as Wonder Woman

Great Hera!  I don't know if I should shield my eyes or stare uncontrollably...

Entertainment Weekly has posted the first image of actress Adrianne Palicki in the retooled costume for David E. Kelley's Wonder Woman pilot.    

The good news is it finally answers any questions anyone had about the style of costume we would see on this show.  No one knew if they would go with the classic costume, or the newer design that appeared in Wonder Woman comics last year.  From this photo, it appears that they stuck close to the new design, sans the jacket.

The bad news is it looks like an ad for a Halloween costume.  Yes, Adrianne Palicki is a lovely woman, but even she looks less than thrilled to be wearing those bright blue latex pants and plastic-looking belt and bracelets.

We'll just have to see what the future holds for this production...
