… not Bridget. The role has gone to Friday Night Lights actress Adrianne Palicki. Considering the timeline, I can’t help but feel that David E. Kelly already had her on a short list of actresses he was interested in seeing get the role. However, this does give Bridget more time to work with Camp W. as well as promoting The Best and the Brightest. Congratulations to Adrianne, I hope the show is fantastic and gives an entirely new generation of girls a strong female heroine to look up to.

Bridget has been listed over on TV Guide as one of the actresses perfect to play Wonder Woman in the new series. Stop on over, vote for her, and leave a comment telling everyone how spiffy cool you think it would be if Bridget got the part!

The Wonder Woman Script is officially out! What does this mean? From here the script gets sent to agents/managers and they and their actors decide if they want to go out for the role.

At this point we have no reason to believe Bridget doesn’t want the role and until someone official tells us something to the contrary, we’re going to keep on championing her for the role.

What can you do now?  Contact  David E Kelley Productions at the address below and let them know that you think Bridget Regan is PERFECT for the role!

Now that the dust has settled on the NBC Comcast merger, NBC has announced that it has ordered a Wonder Woman pilot from David E. Kelly! They’ve literally just announced the deal so it will probably some time before we hear anything casting wise. But, here’s hoping that the comments on every article mentioning how perfect Bridget would be as Wonder Woman gets someone’s attention.

It showed up this morning in both my email and here in the comments, a news article saying that Bridget would portray Wonder Woman in Smallville both this season and next with the probability of the character being spun off onto it’s own show. (http://www.kryptonsite.com/news.htm). Before anyone panics, this is an April fools joke. However, it’s nice to know that people are paying attention to our fan efforts to get Bridget the role.

Regan Wins “Wonder Woman” Poll
by Michael Hickerson August 11, 2009

MTV asked and the fans have spoken.

And they want actress Bridget Regan to star as “Wonder Woman.”

Regan, who stars in the syndicated series “Legend of the Seeker,” took in 62% of the votes. The closest runner up was Megan Gale, who was cast for the now defunct “Justice League” movie, with 15%.

Well, Bridget fans have certainly spoken! The results of the Wonder Woman poll came out today and, no surprise to us, she ran away with it. She ended up with just over 62% of the vote. Good work to everyone who voted! This doesn’t mean she’ll get the role or that the movie will even be made but it shows the kind of devoted following Bridget has and, as Lindsey said, it’s great publicity. Thanks all!

ManCouch.com posted an article today that’s basically why Bridget is perfect for the role of Wonder Woman and all the other girls aren’t. It’s a really good article and it’s humorously entitled 1-Da-Woman: Bridget Regan. So go check that out here: http://www.mancouch.com/709351253/1-da-woman-bridget-regan/

Also, the MTV poll for Wonder Woman closes tomorrow at noon Eastern. As it stands now she’s at 62%. But please, go vote (again) if you haven’t already. That’s some awesome exposure if [when] Bridget wins.

(Bill, if you saw the Google Alert, and are now seeing this, Chris caught it for me. He’s going to have to start reading stuff before I post it. hehe)

Update 8/5: When I posted that last night, Bridget was at 11%. She’s now at 47%! Good job guys!

MTV.com is running a poll over who should play Wonder Woman. Bridget is, of course, a choice. So go now and vote for Bridget!

A slight digression here, even if Bridget doesn’t get the part or if the movie never even gets made, this is all GREAT publicity for both Bridget and Legend of the Seeker. And the longer Legend of the Seeker is on the longer we get to see Bridget on our screens every week, so even if you don’t like Wonder Woman it’s worth it to vote.

Thanks to Mike for the link!
