My Idea/Outline for a Wonder Woman TV pilot

 After seeing the pilot breakdown of Wonder Woman, I wasn't feeling it. This is maybe a Wonder Woman Earth-543 pilot, but not the one we have grown to love all these years.

So as I mulled over this, I thought I would create my own script outline for my favorite amazon.
  • Diana would come to America in the 'classic way'. She would save Steve Trevor, win the tournament, and bring him back to the US.
  • Her mother (Queen Hippolyta) has taught her everything she knows, however the Queen has secret past... She has been to man's world before. 
  • As Diana travels to America, the mystical field between Themyscira and the US closes, leaving Diana trapped in our plane.
  • In America, Diana will be completely 'Amazonian', meaning she will not be familiar with man's world. She will be naive and very guarded. 
  • She will meet Julia Kapatelis, Steve Trevor's former history teacher/mentor and her daughter, Vanessa. 
  • Steve wants to keep Diana a secret, considering he works for a shadow part of the government who would love to learn more about a magical isle of Amazons.
  • Julia agrees to help Steve and teach Diana English and basic social norms. Diana actually lives with Julia.
  • During all of this, Diana falls for Steve and he also develops feelings for her.
  • Steve goes back to work, but his organization is breached by the evil group called, the H.I.V.E.
  • This group has killed Steve's colleagues and now they've focused their sites on him. 
  • The H.I.V.E. sends one of their best assassins, Cheshire to kill Steve. 
  • One night as Steve takes Diana out on a date, Cheshire attacks. However, Cheshire has no idea that Diana is not an average girl. 
  • The two women battle it out, the match ends as a stalemate.
  • Later, Cheshire reports to the H.I.V.E. about Steve's 'Super Agent'. The H.I.V.E. sends Cheshire and a group of mercenaries to take out Steve and Diana.
  • The two are attacked again, but this time it's in public.
  • Diana stops Cheshire and the her team, but now the world knows that she has superpowers.
  • Diana's life gets interesting as the media gets involved and names her 'Wonder Woman'.
  • Now the party really starts.
Okay that's my take. I thought I would remix her origin a little and bring in some other DC Comic Characters

  1. Good. I have no complaints.
    However, onething I want to see is Wonder Woman fighting villains in her weight class.
    Screw fighting humans all the time. Bring in The Furies for a special episode.

  2. If I was on the project, I would bring them in later.
