The CW Pushes The AMAZON Pilot Back Until Next Season

After some recent casting rumors, it seemed that CW's interpretation of Wonder Woman before she was a hero, titled Amazon, was picking up steam. Now, it would appear as if The CW has decided against moving forward with the TV show this season and will wait until next season to shoot it.

A couple weeks back we got some news that Amy Manson was the front runner to land the roll of Diana Prince, AKA Wonder Woman, in the upcoming CW pilot titled Amazon. All indications seem to show that the show was moving full steam a head. Now, according to Deadline, the show is at a stand still. Instead of moving forward with the project for this seasons pilot orders the network has made the choice to wait until next season to shoot the pilot.

Amazon was the first pilot that The CW started working on for this season, even starting the casting process back in November. That was before the script was even ready. It just appears that the show was no where near ready to shoot. Given the success of the television show Arrow, which is based on DC's Green Arrow, the network is wanting to make sure they go about handling Amazon just right. As of right now the show is still very high on the priority list for The CW. For the latest on all things Wonder Woman, make sure to check back here at CBM.

Warner bros are [frick]ing up so badly its not even funny. Canceling cartoons, making this crap, rushing a JL movie out the same year as Avengers 2. When does the horror end?

Again, this just proves how fricking stupid WB execs are. This never should have been green lighted. It's a stupid idea given birth by stupid people.

Big screen, proper treatment, or at least an actual Wonder Woman show executed properly. Themiscyraville sounds retarded. Pull the trigger and lose it altogether.

movie please,yes you can get more stories and character development through a tv series,but with JLA comic out (hopefully) in 2 years it would look stupid to have a series with one actor and have her in a movie with a different actor,she needs a big ass movie,it worked for thor,having him come from a strange over worldy place and coming to earth,do it with wonder woman!

Oh, and I just looked up Amy Manson.

WTF!?

Girl looks like she barely survived a few years in Auschvitz. No damn way some anorexic little girl can pull off Wonder Woman.

Scottish actress, Amy Manson, is not tall enough to be Wonder Woman.



Now super-model, Amy Manson, is.

Well, that inspires confidence... maybe the new CEO told them that they need to be making a movie instead...? Oh who am I kidding. -__-

Normally I'd be very skeptical. But I think in this case the CW would have no shortage of writers who would like to write this show. It might actually be good.

I'll wait to see a pilot before I say Yay or Nay.People always tend to think things are going to be a flop,but you never know it could supprise you.Though a movie outing for the Amazon Princess would be better though.
