TV bosses have launched a hunt for the next Wonder Woman amid fresh plans to bring the superhero back to the small screen in a prequel. The character was famously played by Lynda Carter in the 1970s "Wonder Woman" TV show, and actress Adrianne Palicki was cast in the role last year, but David E. Kelley's planned reboot was scrapped when bosses at NBC decided not to pick up the series. Bing: More about 'Wonder Woman' | More about Lynda Carter
However, executives at Warner Bros. TV and America's CW network are now working on a fresh project called "Amazon," which will resurrect Wonder Woman and focus on her pre-superhero origins. Casting has now begun to find a suitable actress for the lead role of the warrior princess, according to Deadline.com.
