So, NBC has ordered a pilot:

Thats good news..very good news
Though, I am not sure if I like this part:

However, Wonder Woman fans still may have cause for concern. If Deadline’s information is correct, Kelley’s take on the nearly 70-year-old superheroine will differ dramatically from her portrayals in the comic books or the ’70s TV series: Here she’ll be Diana Prince, a vigilante crimefighter and successful corporate executive in Los Angeles who tries to “balance all of the elements of her extraordinary life.”

Lets see...a corporate ex,who is strugling with her superheroine alter-ego..we allready have that in the comics..she is called Power Girl!
Why dont make a show about her instead, since they dont want to respect WWs comic book origins?!?
Well, at least they didint make her a lawyer

I know its too early to judge the pilot but I am somewhat concerned about this.
Must wait and see..
I hope they get the casting done well..thats very important.
Though Kelleys previous shows have had good actors, so Im not that worried about it.

They're keeping what works (Wonder Woman the icon) and ditching what doesn't work (Wonder Woman the character)
