Adrianne Palicki Is NBC’s Wonder Woman

Ladies and Gentlemen… we HAVE a Wonder Woman!

Adrianne Palicki (“Friday Night Lights,” “Red Dawn”) will star in the title role of “Wonder Woman,” a new series pilot from David E. Kelley (“Boston Legal,” “Ally McBeal,” NBC’s “Harry’s Law”).

The series pilot is a reinvention of the iconic DC Comics title in which Wonder Woman – a.k.a. Diana Prince – is a vigilante crime fighter in Los Angeles but also a successful corporate executive and a modern woman trying to balance all of the elements of her extraordinary life. Kelley and Bill D’Elia (“Boston Legal,” “The Practice”) are the executive producers. The pilot was written by Kelley and will be directed by Jeffrey Reiner(NBC’s “The Event”).  “Wonder Woman” is from David E. Kelley Productions and Warner Bros. Television.

Palicki, who appeared as Tyra Collette in NBC’s acclaimed “Friday Night Lights,” will star in the upcoming feature-film remake of “Red Dawn.”  She also starred in the horror film “Breaking the Girl” and in the recent series “Lone Star.”

Now I am not sold on this casting. I think there are other actresses out there who might fit the look better, but itsKelly’s show. I can live with Adrianne as Diana but ”vigilante crime fighter in L.A. but also a successful corporate executive and a modern woman trying to balance all of the elements of her extraordinary life.” What the HELL IS THAT? Until I see or read more on this I don’t think this invisible jet is gonna fly.
