Adrianne Palicki Is The New Wonder Woman
I can live with this choice. She is a virtual unknown (Friday Night Lights). Let's wait to see what she looks like in costume. The costume is VERY important to create the illusion of a live action superhero icon.

Sorry, but...meh.
I think she's an alright choice... I'm more worried about the premise, than the casting... ;) What's cool, though, is she was in Smallville as "Kara" (Clark's fake cousin who was actually a girl that died in a car accident and was used by Jor-El to convince Clark to do whatever he wanted him to do at that time... Season 3, I think.. and she is NOT to be confused w/ Laura Vandervoort), was also in the Mercy Reef (Aquaman) pilot as a villainous Siren... And was even in Supernatural a few times as Sam's girlfriend Jess who got killed in the pilot... So while unknown by most, she has at least well paid her dues to the comic/sci-fi community!!
I don't have too much hope for the series. They should have gone for a movie. She seems to pedestrian.
I am worried about the premise, too. WW here is a business woman by day, vigilante by night. Uh, no Amazonian Princess? Does this mean her powers are gone, too? Her costume?? Her Wonder Woman-ness???
Instead of thinking "Smallville" here, I am thinking "Bionic Woman" reboot, and that was just sad.
She is cute enough to give her a chance and then i will decide.
The whole thing will be a train wreck.
