Wonder Woman TV series shelved

Wonder Woman TV series shelved

A small screen reboot of Wonder Woman has been shelved after producers failed to land a TV deal.

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 US from 1975 to 1979.

TV bossses have announced plans to remake the show with Ally McBeal creator David E. Kelly, sparking rumours to fly speculating about who would land the key role of the leading lady.

Mad Men star Christina Hendricks has made a public request for the role as the heroine.

Producers offered the role to various US networks last week but failed to find an investor according to Deadline.com.

Now the remake has been shelved, but with the option of reviving the project sometime in the future.
