Wonder Woman Is Cursed

People have been trying to get a Wonder Woman series going for years now. In 2011, Adrianne Palicki was filming a version for NBC which they ended up passing on because of less than stellar early test screenings.

Turns out that Wonder Woman isn’t happening either. At least this year. The CW didn’t pickup the series and has moved the Wonder Woman project, titled Amazon, to next season.

They should scrap the idea altogether or at least cater to their demographic and make it Wonder Girl. It’d be set in high school and one of the plots will be about “OMG, did you hear what Jenny said about Diana?”
