Unlike her sister, Alexa (Tara Strong, TV's POWERPUFF GIRLS) is scholarly and a weakness on the battlefield. In addition to the primary story, there is a subplot involving Amazonian warrior Artemis (Rosario Dawson, SEVEN POUNDS) and her bookish sister Alexa. Russell brings strong confidence to Wonder Woman, and Fillion provides the right dose of humor without being hammy. I don't know if reuniting the WAITRESS couple of Russell and Fillion was intended, but it works. Of course, this story is told via a romance between her and Col. When she leaves her all-female island, she sees what the other Amazon women warned her about, ruining her dreams of one day being the person who reunites the Amazonians with the outside world. Diana's story is simple she is raised to doubt men, but has resisted believing what she has heard. Diana, in her classic Wonder Woman grab, is sent on a mission to accompany Trevor back to the outside world and stop Ares, who has made a deal with Hades (Oliver Platt, FROST/NIXON), the god of the underworld.ĭirector Lauren Montgomery and writer Michael Jelenic cram a lot of story into 74 minutes, even leaving room for some extensive fight and battle sequences.
#WONDER WOMAN 2009 SERIES#
Steve Trevor (Nathan Fillion, WAITRESS) crashes on the island, a series of events unfolds leading to the escape of Ares. Her name is Diana (Keri Russell, WAITRESS), who grows up to be the greatest Amazon warrior. On the island, the god queen Hera (Marg Helgenberger, TV's CSI) gives Hippolyta a daughter made from clay. The feud between the former lovers leads to the Amazonians secluding themselves from all men on a hidden island where they keep Ares a prisoner. The film begins with a vicious battle between Wonder Woman's mother Hippolyta (Virginia Madsen, SIDEWAYS), the queen of the Amazon women, and Ares (Alfred Molina, SPIDER-MAN 2), the god of war. As an origin story, this version of Wonder Woman will be quite different to those whose only reference to the character is Lynda Carter. Much is made of the PG-13 rating, but in addition to harder violence, the film deals with more mature subject matters. I'm not the first person to say it, but it is nevertheless true - those planning a live-action feature based on the Amazonian princess should check this out.
Following SUPERMAN DOOMSDAY and BATMAN: GOTHAM KNIGHT, WONDER WOMAN is the latest animated feature from DC Direct, and their best thus far.
