See the First Photo of Adrianne Palicki as Wonder Woman

Last month, NBC's "Wonder Woman" reboot cast its titular superheroine, with "Friday Night Lights" star Adrianne Palicki stepping into Lynda Carter's invisible plane. Today, the production has released its first image of Palicki in costume as Wonder Woman...and here she is!



As James Hibberd notes on EW.com, "NBC promises the project, if picked up to series, will offer a serious, non-campy take on the DC Comics character."

I'm not entirely sure how that pledge jibes with this image. I understand that this take on Wonder Woman's look is congruent with her costume in the comic books, but the only thing less practical for crime-fighting than vinyl leggings is a bustier (and don't even get me started on the high-heeled boots). A "serious, non-campy" vigilante has to be dressed for speed and flexibility — and, one would hope, utility.

So if this pilot — and, with it, this get-up — makes it to series, I guess we should just wish good luck to Palicki's stunt double, and to the NBC censor who's definitely going to have to spend a lot of time pixelating her costume malfunctions.

WOW....I"m not really sure how this is going to go over.  It's not really representing the original but it is trying to reboot it, so that's somethingl.  GOOD LUCK WW.  I'm in your corner.

I'm not on board with Katheryn Heigl but the books are absolutely WONDERFUL!!!   I read them, my 81 yr old grandfather reads them, they are great.  I highly recommend them.  The movie will be very interesting if it stays true to the book.
