Vulture is reporting that a new Wonder Woman series is in the earliest stages of development at the CW, home of Smallville and this fall's Arrow. Notes the stie, "Our sources say the new take on the comic book crime fighter is being written by Allan Heinberg (Grey's Anatomy, The O.C.) under the working title Amazon. Unlike past TV incarnations, it will focus on Wonder Woman as a young, budding superhero, rather than a fully formed defender of liberty. (Think Smallville, but instead of a 'no tights, no flights' rule, this show might have a "no bracelets, no crown" mandate.) Heinberg seems a logical candidate for the job: His resume includes work on the kinds of soapy dramas the CW favors as well as comic-geek street cred (he wrote the Young Avengers comic book series back in 2005).
It should be noted that CW is only developing a script at this point; no pilot production has been greenlit or even contractually guaranteed." For more, click HERE.
