Adrianne Palicki recently played Lady Jaye in G.I.Joe: Retaliation, but she was originally supposed to be Wonder Woman in a show by NBC which was never picked up. IGN talked to the actress about her experience as the Amazon Princess. Despite being upset the show was never picked up, she raved about her exciting time playing the iconic character. “I got to play Wonder Woman which was, by the way, maybe one of the coolest things ever,” Palicki said. She was asked if she regrets that the show didn't move forward. “I wouldn’t say regret,” she says. “I was devastated when it didn’t go and it was expected to. It was one of those things that was shocking. But in retrospect it was probably a blessing. It would’ve been a really hard thing to shoot. And I got to wear the costume -- I should say, I got paid to wear the costume! So not many people get to say that. [laughs] I’m really blessed to have gotten to do that and maybe someday down the line I’ll get to play that character or another awesome icon again.” Gal Gadot may have been recently cast as Wonder Woman in the upcoming sequel to Man of Steel, but we can't help but wonder what the series would have been like.
