NBC has picked up David E. Kelley‘s Wonder Woman to pilot. Kelley, who’s legal drama Harry’s Law just debuted on NBC, had brought the project to the network once before, but NBC reportedly passed due to executive reshuffling.
“I think the likelihood is we’ll see it next year,” Kelley hinted in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter. “I’m being optimistic but I don’t think I’m being unrealistic.”
“I like to think of it as a smart script,” he said, adding that Wonder Woman would be a “real complex woman and not just a superhero.”
