Lynda Carter was passed on for the 1974 movie!
Before the Wonder Woman TV series came to be, there was a made-for-TV movie starring Cathy Lee Crosby. Carter unsuccessfully auditioned for the part. Do you get health insurance coverage as an actor just for trying? We’re not sure.
Lyle Waggoner and Lynda Carter did not get along.
Waggoner and Carter grew further and further apart as the series progressed. Eventually Waggoner would be written out of the show and his character Steve Trevor would be replaced. Cutthroat industry!
