NBC's redrafted Wonder Woman now balances her single-gal woes with plenty of violence
Other than the Frederick’s Of Hollywood costume that accounts for at least one-third of her crime-fighting ensemble, much of the preemptive criticism of David E. Kelley’s upcoming Wonder Woman reboot has been based on an early peek at the script, which essentially recast the Amazon princess as a sort of super-powered Bridget Jones whose yen for fighting evil is matched only by her love of Katy Perry-soundtracked pajama parties. But of course, there have been several rewrites since then (and lots and lots of Internet complaining), and now io9 has gotten hold of the new draft that’s being used for casting purposes—and while there’s no word on whether those character traits have been scrubbed completely, at least now we know that Wonder Woman doesn’t spend all of her time singing sadly into her hairbrush or drowning her sorrows in ice-cream binges.
