'Wonder Woman' in the flesh!

Red alert! Or should we say blue? EW has obtained an exclusive first look of Adrianne Palicki as Wonder Woman ? aka Diana Prince ? from NBC?s reboot of�the classic 1970s series.

What?s different from what we?ve seen before? Well, how about those shiny blue pants? And blue boots instead of red ones? Compared to Lynda Carter?s get-up, this body-hugging extravaganza de-emphasizes the patriotism and seems to play up the comic?s Greek mythology. And a special shout-out to those bracelets!

Wonder Woman is being remade by�Boston Legal writer David E. Kelley,�who has incorporated the superhero?s signature lasso, cuffs, and plane in the pilot. NBC promises the project, if picked up to series, will offer a serious, non-campy take on the DC Comics character.

Along with Palicki, Elizabeth Hurley (Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me) and Cary Elwes (Saw, The Princess Bride) have joined the cast.�Hurley?s character runs a pharmaceutical company that is creating a drug that makes people stronger while Elwes plays�the CEO of Diana?s company, Themyscira Industries.
