Contents.Plot In an inner city home a teenager tells his family that he has been accepted to college moments before he begins convulsing and bleeding from the eyes and ears. Meanwhile, Wonder Woman is in a foot chase with a super-strength criminal on Hollywood Blvd and, after knocking him out, takes a sample of his blood and leaves him to the police. Wonder Woman returns to the headquarters of Themyscira Industries, a large corporation which she runs as the CEO in her alter-ego of Diana Themyscira. Themyscira Industries owns and operates the concept of Wonder Woman as both a privately run crime fighting operation and for marketing the image of Wonder Woman as a role model to the outside world. Diana has trouble balancing her life as both the CEO of the corporation and as Wonder Woman.
An Amazon princess (Gal Gadot) finds her idyllic life on an island occupied only by female warriors interrupted when a pilot (Chris Pine) crash-lands nearby.
Diana's frustration with having to maintain a perfect image to the outside world in both these capacities leads her to create a third identity for herself, 'Diana Prince,' so that she can have an element of normalcy in her life and sit at home with her cat watching romantic comedies and surfing the internet. At Themyscira Industries Diana grows suspicious of evil businesswoman for distributing an illegal that gives users super-human strength and endurance, but can cause death through repeated use.The blood sample she draws from the Hollywood Blvd fight and the story of the college-bound teen confirm Diana's suspicions. Without enough hard evidence to bring Cale to justice as Wonder Woman, Diana holds a press conference and airs her beliefs about Cale to the world. Cale in turn confronts Diana in person to intimidate her and threaten legal action. In a flashback, Diana ends up breaking it off with her boyfriend because of her busy life. Back in present day, the college-bound teenager dies from his drug sickness and Diana is galvanized to confront Cale as Wonder Woman.
She arrives at Cale's facilities, defeats all of her super-powered henchmen and confronts Cale face-to-face. Cale threatens legal action and to release security footage of Wonder Woman killing the henchmen, but Wonder Woman responds by pulling Cale down with her lasso and throwing her against the wall. Later Cale is put in jail and a Justice Department representative comes to meet Diana. This turns out to be Steve Trevor who says that he will be working with Diana in her capacity as Wonder Woman but also reveals that he has married another woman.Cast and characters. as, the title role.

As Wonder Woman.In the pilot's first two acts, Wonder Woman wears a new version of her classic comic book uniform: the familiar red top with gold 'W' insignia chestplate (formerly an eagle symbol chestplate) is still used, as are her golden belt and; but, these are now worn with blue slacks that have gold stars running along the sides, rather than with shorts.
Her boots are blue with gold trim (whereas the traditional boots had white, vertical trim). Her bulletproof bracelets/gauntlets are more stylized, and her tiara is much thinner. During the final act of the pilot, when Wonder Woman flies to Cale's hidden laboratory for the final showdown with the villain, her clothing switches from the blue pants, to the more-recognizable shorts.Though Wonder Woman's is referred to as the 'Lasso of Truth' by a reporter in the episode, she never uses it to magically compel anyone to tell the truth. For instance, in the first act, she uses the Lasso to end a pursuit of a man down city streets at night. In a later scene, she breaks the arm of one of Cale's henchman to 'make him talk,' instead of using the Lasso's magic. In this interpretation of Wonder Woman, the Lasso is only employed as an entangling weapon; Wonder Woman snaps it round a target (usually the neck) then jerks it roughly, throwing the target off-balance.
Her bracelets can still stop bullets (as in the -starring, 1975-1979 TV series). For example, she uses them to protect herself from a security guard's gunfire during the episode's climax (and retaliates by hurling a steel pipe at the hapless guard, impaling him through the neck and killing him instantly). One of this interpretation's greatest departures from WW might be its version of her /'the Invisible Jet.'
Here, she gets around Los Angeles in a very small, one-seater aircraft that is reminiscent of a shuttlecraft in a sci-fi space TV show. While highly sophisticated, the plane is also highly visible (painted an opaque white).Production Reports surfaced in October 2010 that Television was teaming with writer-producer to pitch a new Wonder Woman to networks.
The major networks all turned down the series, but, the final network to initially pass on the project, announced that they had ordered a pilot on January 21, 2011. In February 2011, was hired to direct the pilot. A few days later, it was announced that was selected to play the title role. Lynette Rice of commented that compared to Lynda Carter's costume, Palicki's costume de-emphasized patriotism and played up the character's Greek mythological origin. Lynda Carter herself said Palicki looked gorgeous.
Kyle Buchanan of stated the costume, 'looked less like a superhero outfit and more like a challenge gone awry, the kind of thing would dismiss by sniffing, 'Shiny, cheap, and tacky'.' Borys Kit of pointed out that the costume was causing a divide, with many exclaiming it was 'too trashy and too bad porn-y'. After the first official images of Palicki in costume were revealed, republished a story criticizing the loss of Wonder Woman's American symbolism.
Later changed the costume, replacing the blue boots and rubbery pants, due to fan criticism. But in the episode 'Gorilla My Dreams' of Kelley's show, (best known as from the television series ) as Annie Bilson, wears the original costume now with the red boots.In March 2011, and were cast as villain and Diana's personal assistant, respectively. Pedro Pascal was cast as Ed Indelicato, Wonder Woman's liaison to the police department and as Henry Detmer, who runs the day-to-day operations of Diana's company. Actor was cast to play.The plot is described as 'a reinvention of the iconic in which Wonder Woman – aka – is a vigilante crime fighter in L.A., but also a successful corporate executive and a modern woman, trying to balance all of the elements of her extraordinary life.'
No clear reference is made to Diana or her superhero persona of Wonder Woman being a true Amazon or coming from the legendary island of Themyscira, except one vague line of dialog during a board room scene. Within the pilot's own self-contained narrative, Wonder Woman's origins appear to be without any of the mystical elements from her comic book origins.On May 12, 2011, NBC announced that it would not be picking the project up for a series.

Reception After watching the pilot, television critic described it as 'embarrassing. It was all I had feared, and more'. Writing about the show for Flickering Myth in 2017, Neil Calloway said 'it has its moments.
But it was probably dated in 2011. We didn’t really lose anything by it not being commissioned into a series.' See also. ^ Porter, Rick (March 25, 2011). Retrieved March 25, 2011. ^ Andreeva, Nellie (March 3, 2011). Retrieved March 3, 2011.
