Wonder Woman gets another shot at a television show!
It appears that the thought of getting Wonder Woman on television is not yet dead. Vulture is reporting that the CW is currently writing up a script for a possible show based on the DC superhero. (At the moment it is just a script. No pilot or production of any kind have been ordered.)
The CW has had success in the past with hero shows (Smallville) and is hoping that their current project Arrow will keep that success going. Now they are looking further into the future with another big DC name. The big catch is that this script is going to be an origin story of our beloved Wonder Woman, Diana. The show "will focus on Wonder Woman as a young, budding superhero, rather than a fully formed defender of liberty." Similar to how Smallville had the "no tights, no flights" rule. Like Smallville focusing on Clark, this show will focus on Diana. The show will be written by Allan Heinberg (Grey's Anatomy, The O.C., Young Avengers) and will be titled Amazon.
Would you be interested to see a show with this kind of spin on Wonder Woman?
