Wonder Woman remake shelved
January 11th, 2011 - 4:37 pm ICT by ANISydney, Jan 11 (ANI): The small screen remake of ‘Wonder Woman’ has been put on hold after producers failed to find investors for the TV show.
Lynda Carter, starred as the scantily-clad superhero in ‘The New Adventures of Wonder Woman’, adapted from the classic DC Comics series, which aired in the United States from 1975 to 1979, reports the Sydney Morning Herald.
TV bosses recently announced plans to remake the show with Boston Legal creator David E Kelley, prompting rumours to fly speculating about who would land the coveted role as the new leading lady.
Mad Men star Christina Hendricks even made a public appeal to be cast as the heroine.
According to Deadline.com, producers offered the show to a number of US networks last week but failed to find an investor.
The remake has now reportedly been shelved, with an option to revive the project in the future. (ANI)
