Just read over the weekend that Brandon Routh will once again play Superman for the upcoming Crisis crossover. Though I didn't care for "Superman Returns" I do enjoy how the CW is including the fringes. Maybe we can get a Burt Ward or Cathy Lee Crosby cameo?
Over the decades, Cathy Lee Crosby (and the 1974 Wonder Woman TV movie she headlined) had been treated (more often than not) in a manner similar to some wicked, 19th century families who locked away their family "shame" in the basement, away from public view. Oh, they have acknowledged its existence as a matter of record in books and a few documentaries, but there's never been a lot of love or respect for the film, or Crosby, for that matter. Unless the Berlanti group has a soft spot for Crosby or her lone turn as WW, I would not expect her to show up.
What's ironic is that the Crosby Wonder Woman was the first mainstream (as in Big Two publishers) superhero to be adapted in more real world, less fantasy/spectacle terms--something that would take root (in some significant comic book movies) nearly four decades later.
