Former Knight Rider star Justin Bruening has been cast as Steve Trevor in the upcoming television reboot of Wonder Woman.
Deadline reports the actor has been cast for the pilot episode of the show and could be a regular cast member if the series gets picked up by NBC.
An early “Wonder Woman” casting call described the role as “A leading man Diana can’t look past. Good looking but a real man. An Army vet, he now works in the Justice dept.”
First appearing in a 1941 issue of “All Star Comics,” Steve Trevor’s origin in the comics world had him crashing on the island of the Amazons during World War II. Steve and the island’s princess, diana, fall in love while she nurses him back to health. When he returns to the United States, she follows him and adopts the secret identity of Diana Prince.
Lyle Waggoner played Steve Trevor in the original television series starring Lynda Carter.
