From Actor Feuds To Alcoholism: Behind The Scenes Of Wonder Woman

Another Wonder Woman Project

In 1967, there was previous attempt to bring Wonder Woman to the television screen. This show, called Who’s Afraid of Diana Prince? was created by William Dozier. He saw how successful Batman had been and thought he could bring the same success to a show about a female superhero.

However, only a pilot was filmed and it was never aired, although it’s been rumored that it still can be found online. Ellie Wood Walker, who was the wife of actor Robert Walker Jr., starred in the pilot as Diana Prince. In this case, a second actress would have been used to play the part of Wonder Woman. Linda Harrison was enlisted to play Diana’s “Wonder Woman” alter ego.
