Deadline reports that actor Cary Elwes has joined the pilot for the new David E. Kelley Wonder Woman show staring Adrienne Palicki as Wonder Woman. It says he will play Henry Detmer.

Here is what they had to say:

"Elwes will play Henry Detmer, the acting CEO of Themyscira Industries who is deeply devoted to Diana. He runs the day to day operations of the company and acts like an Uncle to Diana although he could be a possible love interest down the line."

Like an Uncle or love interest? Okay...

Isn't he like twice Adrianne Palicki's age or something?

Otherwise, he's a great, underrated actor. Hopefully his addition will bring sophistication and some great comedy to the show.

I really like Cary Elwes, but the premise seems dubious.

I really hope this isn't a retreat of that "Georgia Rules" film.

I don't like seeing Elwes as a pervert.

Hope he has a black mask in this show, by the by.

He acts like an uncle to Diana,OK

It does not seem to be a love interest?

Diana Themyscira still love Steve Trevor, her great love of life.
