Seems that after all the stink, the proposed Wonder Woman TV show has been shot down before it even got out the gate.
NBC has passed on David E. Kelley’s much-discussed Wonder Woman pilot, which reimagined the DC Comics superheroine as a successful corporate executive who fights crime in Los Angeles.
No official reason is given why, but I am sure the raging fanboys who were already upset about the show’s first looks can list their assumptions.
After such a shit storm was raised about the costume (which I had little issue with – pants are fine.. boots should have been red, and they did that) the filming of the pilot and reading of the script were getting mixed reviews.
How she pulled off the role, how the supporting cast looked, how it dealt with its differences from the source material.
Too many things to point fingers right now, but it sounds like it was a mix of a lot of things and that kind of doubt is enough to can a show this early.
And when the network passed on this consider that the more Battlestar Galactica writer Ronald D Moore’s supernatural crime drama (staring many B*G alum) was also rejected.
