The Wonder Women (Womans?) Of The Big And Little Screens.

The Wonder Women (Womans?) of the big and little screens.

Ellie Wood Walker (NOT Linda Harrison, as indicated above) was in a short pilot from the producers of the live action Batman TV series. It's available on the Interwebs, and the kindest thing I can say is thank the stars that it never got approved. See it here:

Cathy Lee Crosby was in a television movie, fighting a villainous Ricardo Montalban (where have I heard of that concept before?). This Wonder Woman had no superpowers and was presented as a super-spy. The telefilm was the pilot for a proposed series but, luckily again, it was not approved. Good thing, too, because this was 90 minutes of boring.

Lynda Carter. 'Nuff said.

Megan Gale was cast in George Miller's never-produced Justice League: Mortal film. While I wasn't a fan of most of the casting, I am a big George Miller (the Mad Max films) fan, and had high hopes for this one. Despite being greenlit, completely cast, and having production set-up in Austrailia, a dispute over tax credits ultimately led to the film never being made.

Adrianne Palicki starred as Wonder Woman in yet another unaired television pilot. Despite having a decent cast (Pedro Pascal, Cary Elwes, Elizabeth Hurley) the tone was all wrong. And the costume, which was rightfully made fun of at the time, had those awful blue plastic pants (although they were replaced with the traditional shorts by the end fight).

Gal Gadot. 'Nuff 'nuff said.
