Lynda Carter Approve Of New 'Wonder Woman' Adrianne Palicki

Casting Adrianne Palicki seemed like a good move, and may well have been, but the first draft of the costume was terrible, and revisions only partially rectified things. But the costume isn’t the only thing getting revisions.

More problematic is word that the pilot script kicks off a series. That reportedly involves three separate identities, a good deal of crying and an Ally McBeal tone that doesn’t sound very Wonder Woman at all. The latest round of info is that script revisions were done late in the process, as the pilot was shooting, to make the show a bit more tough.

New Wonder Woman Adrianne Palicki can breathe a bit easier now, now that she’s got the seal of approval from the original Wonder Woman.

During an interview with Billy Bush and Kit Hoover on Tuesday’s Access Hollywood Live, Lynda Carter talked about the "Wonder Woman" reboot from David E. Kelley and the show’s new leading lady.

"She’s got quite a body! She looks good", Lynda told Billy and Kit of Adrianne, when shown a photo of Adrianne in the iconic superhero costume.

While Adrianne’s reboot costume sticks fairly close to the original, with the wrist cuffs, gold lasso and red corset top, there are a few differences, such as blue pants instead of short shorts.

io9 has the new script, and the short version is that there’s more violence lifting bad guys by their throats, gouging eyes, high kicks and more.

As the new Wonder Woman has rapidly gone through development, casting and started shooting, many have wondered if the original and still iconic TV Wonder Woman would make an appearance. Speaking to The Talk (via MTV), Lynda Carter said this week,

I’ve talked to David E. Kelley, who’s a brilliant writer, a number of times and we’re hoping to plan something. But I cannot reveal she said, not wanting to give too much away. David E. Kelley is full of surprises, so you never know what’s going to happen.
