6 Writers who could put the 'Wonder' in the Wonder Woman TV Series


If NBC wants the Wonder Woman series to be a hit, they may need to put it in the hands of these possible writers.

I truly believe their skills could keep the fans watching and new ones dying for more.

 So here we go...


Michael Jelenic - He wrote the Wonder Woman animated movie. He gave her strength and fierceness. It was nice to see Diana at her warrior's best.


Gail Simone- She was the 1st woman to write about Diana and she did a mighty fine job keeping WW real. She also wrote the plot outline for the WW animated movie. I think Gail could make Diana very interesting and likable to masses. Her talents are amazing and television would benefit from whatever Gail has to offer.


John Schulian & Robert G. Tapert - He created "Xena, The Warrior Princess" the closest Wonder Woman-ish series we had in the 90s. He also wrote for the series. I think he could give us plenty of battles and great mythical ties to Diana's heritage.

Robert produced and wrote for Xena. He has a flair for the supernatural and he could give the series some edge.

Phil Jimenez - His love for Wonder Woman made fall in love with Wonder Woman all over again. He wrote for the series in the early 2000's and his art put Diana in forefront of the comic world. I'm sure Phil could give us pretty good stories.


Steven Moffat - The man who has wrote the best of Doctor Who could easily make Wonder Woman watchable and very engaging. I mean, this is the man who gave us the creepy Weeping Angels. I know he would deliver.

I feel John, Robert and Phil will be the best bet for WW. You can just see it.
Besides any one that had anything to do with Xena is a Hand in glove.

From that list, I like Michael Jelenic.
I'd like to throw Zach Snyder's name in the ring too. And maybe JJ Abrams or Damon Lindeloff.
