The David E. Kelley Wonder Woman re-imaging for NBC starring Adrianne Palicki as a modern-day Amazon doing battle in the jungles of corporate culture as a CEO by day and fighting crime by night has gotten the boot.

The pilot, which featured Palicki’s Wonder Woman sporting a spiffy new costume that de-emphasized the Lynda Carter, flag-waving, patriot uniform and resorted to Greek mythology for its iconography, received mixed reviews from test audiences, according to Entertainment Weekly.

Also in the cast were Elizabeth Hurley, who was slated to play a nefarious head of a pharmaceutical company, and The Princess Bride’s Cary Elwes.
