Live-Action Features

• Wonder Woman (1974): The TV movie pilot starring Cathy Lee Crosby as a (mostly) non-powered Wonder Woman who earned the nickname "Blonder Woman". The film was based upon a period in the comics when Diana had given up her superpowers and instead worked as an Emma Peel-esque crimefighter, though by the time it aired Wonder Woman had become a superhero again in the comics. Failed to sell as a Modesty Blaise-style TV series, so a do-over was ordered resulting in...
• Wonder Woman: A 1975-79 show starring Lynda Carter. A more faithful adaptation of the comics, it is dated, particularly its early episodes set in World War II, but fondly remembered. And Lynda Carter managed an eerie resemblance to the original character as drawn by Gibson Girl artist Harry G. Peter.
• Wonder Woman Pilot (2011): An attempted pilot for NBC's 2011 season by David E. Kelley, focusing on Wonder Woman fairly established in Man's World and running the Themyscira Corporation to get her word out in between fighting crime, starring Adrianne Palicki as Diana. It wasn't picked up, and fans weren't happy with what word leaked out - partially because Diana seemed to be a Dark Age hero set loose in a Silver Age world, complained about the size of her breasts, and straight up murdered security guards.
• DC Extended Universe, played by Gal Gadot
  • Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016): Diana/Wonder Woman makes her first live action cinematic appearance in this film. She is acting as a supporting character with a pretty big role to play in the climax.
  • Wonder Woman (2017): The invokedlong-overdue solo film focusing on the superheroine. It serves as her origin story, and takes place during World War I.
  • Justice League (2017): She's a founding member of the eponymous Justice League, in its first live action cinematic incarnation.
    • Zack Snyder's Justice League (2021): Director's cut of the above that revisits the creation of the team in a different manner. Includes several missing scenes from the above that feature Diana.
  • Wonder Woman 1984 (2020): The follow-up to the 2017 film, an interquel that pits Diana against Maxwell Lord and Cheetah in, well, 1984.
  • SHAZAM! Fury of the Gods (2023): Diana makes an appearance.
  • The Flash (2023): Diana briefly appears again.

Literature

• Wonder Woman: Warbringer: A DC Icons book by Leigh Bardugo.

Western Animation

• Wonder Woman (2009): A DTV produced by Bruce Timm but set in a separate continuity from the DC Animated Universe and focusing exclusively on her, intending to embrace the classic origin in full. She is voiced by Keri Russell.
• Wonder Woman (2013)
• Wonder Woman: Bloodlines (2019): A DTV movie focusing on Wonder Woman's family heritage. Due to being set in the DC Animated Movie Universe, she's once again voiced by Rosario Dawson.

Appearances in other media

• A four-and-a-half-minute pilot reel was produced by Greenway Productions in 1967 — planned as an ultra-campy Sitcom, with Wonder Woman (Ellie Wood Walker) as a delusional single girl who imagines herself a beautiful superhero. It was never aired, but can now be seen here.
• The Brady Kids (1972): The character's first appearance in animation. In this spinoff of The Brady Bunch, the Brady kids meet Wonder Woman and together they are accidentally transported back to the time of the ancient Olympic Games. The kids plan to compete in the marathon and beat the Greek athletes to qualify for the race. Wonder Woman persuades the kids to disqualify themselves, explaining that if they win the race they will change the course of history. It's all kind of surreal.
• Super Friends: Alongside the male heroes of DC Comics.
• A Poorly Disguised Pilot in Ruby-Spears Superman, titled Superman and Wonder Woman vs. the Sorceress of Time.
• Promotional materials for a show (and accompanying toy line) titled Wonder Woman and the Star Riders, aimed at young girls, which never came to be.
• DC Animated Universe:
  • Justice League: Voiced by Susan Eisenberg as a princess fresh from Paradise Island (Themyscira), and a little bit naive. She had a budding relationship with Batman. Her origin story was retooled to fit with the series narrative, which left out much of the comic origin, though it was revisited in later episodes.
• Justice League: The New Frontier: An animated Direct to Video based on the acclaimed comic series by Darwyn Cooke. This Wonder Woman was closely tied with her classic origin but examined the change from the Golden Age to the Silver Age. She was voiced by Lucy Lawless of Xena: Warrior Princess fame — and her personality was a little Xena-ish too.
• Several DC Universe Animated Original Movies star Wonder Woman, including Justice League: Crisis on Two Earths, Superman/Batman: Apocalypse, and Justice League: Doom. She is voiced by Vanessa Marshall in the former while Susan Eisenberg revisits the role in the latter two. There is virtually no between-film continuity as each DCU film tends to be a reboot. She also appears in Justice League: The Flashpoint Paradox, reprised by Marshall. She also appears Justice League: War and Justice League: Throne of Atlantis voiced by Michelle Monaghan and Rosario Dawson respectively.
• Batman: The Brave and the Bold: She appears in The Teaser of an episode and in the main story of another. Her design is an homage to the Golden Age and has a lot of canon references to the TV series - including the theme music. She's voiced by Vicki Lewis.
• Young Justice (2010): She appears in bit parts in several episodes as a member of the Justice League. Due to rights issues that were not cleared up until after the show had already begun production, her sidekick Wonder Girl was excluded from the show's roster of teen superheroes during the first season. Wonder Girl (Cassandra Sandsmark) becomes a recurring character in Season 2, with Diana getting an expanded role. She is voiced by Maggie Q of Nikita fame.
• Super Best Friends Forever: The series of animated shorts by Lauren Faust which feature the first animated appearance of the Donna Troy incarnation of Wonder Girl in several decades.
• A series of DC Nation shorts that take a James Bond-esque, California beach girl approach to the character.
• Amazon: In light of the success of the CW's Arrow, the network looked at developing possible Smallville-like approach to Wonder Woman, focusing on her teenage years and her emergence into the world outside Themyscira. In mid-2013 it was announced that the project had been cancelled and The CW instead commissioned Gotham, which took Amazon's prequel concept and gave it to Batman.
• Wonder Women! The Untold Story of American Superheroines: A 2012 documentary on the history of Wonder Woman and other superheroine and Action Heroine characters, from a feminist perspective.
• JLA Adventures: Trapped In Time: A 2014 movie that involved Karate Kid and Dawnstar working with the Justice League to stop Lex Luthor. She's voiced by Grey DeLisle-Griffin.
• The LEGO Movie: Minifigures of at least five DC heroes played roles of varying prominence in this 2014 Lego-inspired film, including Wonder Woman. She only had two or three lines (recorded by Cobie Smulders), but this still marked the first time she appeared in a theatrical movie. She returned in The LEGO Batman Movie and The LEGO Movie 2: The Second Part, the latter of which had Cobie Smulders, Margot Rubin, and Emmett Mitchell respectively voice Wonder Woman as a minifigure, a minidoll, and a DUPLO figure.
• DC Super Hero Girls: A web-series tie-in for the toyline. It is set in a Superhero School and features teenage versions of multiple superheroes and supervillains. Wonder Woman is the main protagonist and is the New Transfer Student who rooms with Harley Quinn. She's once again voiced by Grey DeLisle-Griffin.
  • DC Super Hero Girls (2019): A full television series that serves as a Continuity Reboot of the same concept as the web series, with noticeable differences, such as which characters are included and more stylized character designs. She's once again voiced by Grey DeLisle-Griffin.
• Epic Rap Battles of History: Diana appears in the web series to battle Stevie Wonder. She is played by Lily Singh.
• Justice League Action: An animated series that started in 2016 featuring Wonder Woman as one of the three main characters (along with Batman and Superman). She's voiced by Rachel Kimsey.
• Teen Titans Go! To the Movies: A 2018 movie based on the Teen Titans Go! show. She appears in several scenes throughout the movie along with the rest of the Justice League. She's voiced by Halsey.
• Titans (2018): A live-action series in which Donna Troy (played by Conor Leslie) is a main character. Diana herself doesn't physically appear, but she is mentioned a lot by Donna and her influence on her is also evident.
• Scooby-Doo and Guess Who?: A Scooby-Doo Team-Up Series featuring Wonder Woman as one of the guests. She's once again voiced by Rachel Kimsey.
• Dark Nights: Death Metal received an official Motion Comic in DC's YouTube channel, with Wonder Woman being voiced by Chelsea Wolfe.
• DC League of Super-Pets: A theatrical animated film where she appears as a supporting character voiced by Jameela Jamil.
• MultiVersus: Appears as a playable character in this Warner Bros.-based crossover fighting game. Voiced by Abby Trott.

She also appears as a skin for Athena in the aforementioned predecessor game (speaking in Chinese language).
