Meet Adrianne Palicki: 'Wonder Woman's' roots revealed

Meet Adrianne:We've all been waiting with bated breath for the casting of David E. Kelley's "Wonder Woman," and now we've finally, finally got a name: "Friday Night Lights" alum Adrianne Palicki. The immediate response for the casting has been almost entirely positive (though the script itself has been almost universally panned).

If you're not familiar with Palicki, here are the basics. The 27-year-old hails from Toledo, Ohio and, an athlete at nearly 6 feet tall, is about as physically formidable as a hot girl can get. No stranger to the Sci-Fi genre, Palicki first pinged our radar as Kryptonian Kara on "Smallville" before Laura Vandervoort stepped in to play the real Supergirl.
