Earlier today we reported that actress Adrianne Palicki has landed the title role of “Wonder Woman” for the upcoming David E. Kelley produced pilot.
Now thanks to the power of YouTube, we can have a look at what might have been.
The audition tape for actress Tanit Phoenix has surfaced and is on-line. You can view it below.
According to Blastr, this isn’t an official audition by the actress but is instead Phoenix getting the script and creating her own tape to get the interest of producers.

WonderJenn says
Because this may be the only place I HAVEN’T said this: I don’t care who the actress is, but this writing is ATROCIOUS. No where in the 52 multiverses (or how many we’re up to now) would Diana EVER say, “Big tits save lives.”
Gazerbeam says
Are you saying they don’t? I’ve been researching them all this time for nothing? 🙂
Mich67 says
have to agree with WonderJenn…hopefully the final script won’t be this bad.
ALibertarian says
If this is actually material from the TV show. . .
Let”s just hope it isn’t
Sam says
Jeeze! Just kill it now & put it out of its misery.
D C says
Yeah, this is going to blow big time. Just in that snippet, I can smell Kelley’s stink all over it.
Morgothik says
Wow that was awkward. What kind of show are they making?
David says
What in the world? I like the actress but the writing is just horrible! To me, it looks like they’re trying to make a show about Diana being in retirement. I’ll try it, but I won’t be expecting anything great from it.

So………Wonder Woman’s gonna have a PR rep in the new show? Can you say epic failure?
Nuallain says
Well, Wonder Woman’s had a PR rep in the comics since the Crisis (the first one). In fact, it’s the same character.
I really don’t have a problem with the Big Tits Save Lives line (especially since she’s obviously quoting something somebody else has said and which she finds annoying).
Within the context of what we’ve heard about the show — where this is showing Diana being bogged down by the bureaucracy she’s allowed to build around herself and wanting to be free of it — it seems like a good scene. It wouldn’t be my choice to pick to try and sell the show to people, though.

I predict it will take david e Kelly only about 2 episodes to turn this into a social-political skreed.
