Blue pants replace the bare-legged 70s costume …
EW provided the exclusive first look at the new Wonder Woman in her superheroine costume. Adrianne Palicki will reprise the role that was made famous by Lynda Carter, who starred in the CBS television series The New Original Wonder Woman from 1975-1979.
The NBC reboot is being orchestrated by Boston Legal writer David E. Kelley. Other co-stars include Elizabeth Hurley and Cary Elwes.
We thought it might be fun to put the two women side-by-side for a little comparison. Has Carter’s original costume stood the test of time? Does Palicki rock the blue pants and boots to their best advantage? Are the bare legs with red boots hotter?
Carter was 24 when the series began, compared to 27-year-old Palicki. The veteran actress will turn 60 in July. She’s not alone — check out all of the celebrity baby boomers born in 1951.
