From ew, Red alert! Or should we say blue? EW has obtained an exclusive first look of Adrianne Palicki as Wonder Woman — aka Diana Prince — from NBC’s reboot of the classic 1970s series.
What’s different from what we’ve seen before? Well, how about those shiny blue pants? And blue boots instead of red ones? Compared to Lynda Carter’s get-up, this body-hugging extravaganza de-emphasizes the patriotism and seems to play up the comic’s Greek mythology. And a special shout-out to those bracelets!
Wonder Woman is being remade by Boston Legal writer David E. Kelley, who has incorporated the superhero’s signature lasso, cuffs, and plane in the pilot. NBC promises the project, if picked up to series, will offer a serious, non-campy take on the DC Comics character.
Along with Palicki, Elizabeth Hurley (Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me) and Cary Elwes (Saw, The Princess Bride) have joined the cast. Hurley’s character runs a pharmaceutical company that is creating a drug that makes people stronger while Elwes plays the CEO of Diana’s company, Themyscira Industries.

Ummmm. I can't see a lot of crime fighting happening with those giant BOOBS in the way! Can't we wrangle those puppies a little bit better?
Terrible
I mean, Megan Fox was right when she pointed out that Wonder Woman is "a lame superhero."
Maybe in the 1940s it was cool but since Lynda Carter it's been this way-outdated 70s cheescake idea that's just stupid. In the era of Tomb Raider and female Starbuck and Scarlett Johanesen as Black Widow, who needs this dull, colorless "Amazon Warrior Princess" whose "noble" personality somehow coexists with her chesty-sexpot-in-spandex presence.
And the "truth lasso" and "invisible plane"...come on. Leave it in the 1940s where it belongs.
Yikes. The worst thing about fake boobs is when you can see the artificiality in their shape; the lines describing the top of those gazongas don't look any more real than the chunky parts of the costume that hold them up.
And yeah, Wonder Woman is kind of a bad idea from the silly name forward.
Also, Lynda Carter had REAL tits!
