\"wonderwomanteaser.jpg\"Oh, yeah<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Warner Bros. and Silver Pictures have found their man for “Wonder Woman,” tapping “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” creator Joss WhedonJoss Whedon to write and direct.<\/p>\n

Joel Silver and Leonard Goldberg will produce the live-action feature, based on the DC Comics character created by William Moulton Marston. No start date has been set.<\/p>\n

I am very, very interested on seeing Joss’ take on this character.<\/p>\n

UPDATE<\/u>: Much better article here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“Wonder Woman is the most iconic female heroine of our time, but in a way, no one has met her yet,” Whedon said. “What I love most about icons is finding out what’s behind them, exploring the price of their power. When Joel and I began discussing the character, I realized there is a woman behind the legend who is very fascinating, very uncompromising, and in her own way, almost vulnerable. She’s someone who doesn’t belong in this world, and since everyone I know feels that way about themselves, the character clicked for me.”<\/p>\n

Sounds very Whedonesque. Cool.<\/p>\n

And the teaser pic<\/a> is a drawing by Adam Hughes (AH!), who’s done some of the best WW covers in recent history.<\/p>\n
