Adrianne Palicki Pictures
Palicki, here are the basics. The 27-year-old hails from Toledo, Ohio and, an athlete at nearly 6 feet tall, is about as physically formidable as a hot girl can get. No stranger to the Sci-Fi genre, Palicki first pinged our radar as Kryptonian Kara on "Smallville" before Laura Vandervoort stepped in to play the real Supergirl. It's a tough job, casting someone to be the most beautiful (and ass-kicking) woman in the universe, but David E. Kelley has found his Wonder Woman: Adrianne Palicki.
on the role of Wonder Woman, closely associated with Lynda Carter, who played Diana Prince in the 1970s series, in a decisive manner - she was the only actress invited to test for it. Wonder Woman reunites Palicki with the pilot's director Jeff Reiner who previously served as director/co-executive producer on Friday Night Lights for the series' early run on NBC. Palicki, repped by UTA and Anonymous Content, next stars in the feature remake of Dawn.
