Female Marvel TV Series In Development By Wonder Woman Writer

ABC has given a production commitment to an untitled hourlong drama from Heinberg, Marvel Television and ABC Studios. Written by Heiinberg, it is about female characters with superpowers.

In typical Marvel fashion, further details are being kept close to the vest, but I hear the drama is based on lesser-known Marvel characters. There have been a number of fairly obscure female superhero team-ups that have appeared sporadically in Marvel comics over the years, including A-Force, Lady Liberators and Fearless Defenders.

Heinberg, who is under an overall deal at ABC Studios, is executive producing the potential series with Marvel Television’s Jeph Loeb.

Launching a new Marvel series has been a priority for ABC, with the Heinberg project emerging as a strong contender from the get-go, I hear.

“In terms of Marvel, we have some things that we are in discussions with them right now that we are in development,” the network’s entertainment president Channing Dungey told Deadline last month. “I’m very excited about it.”

Jennifer Walters is the She-Hulk. A female version of the Hulk but she still has her full intelligence and personality.

She's also a lawyer at the law-firm Goodman, Lieber, Kurtzberg, & Holliway. They are specialised in all sorts of cases involving supernatural people.

The series could basically be about how her being a superhero on one side and her trying to live a normal life with a normal job on the other side.



Oh, and one of her co-workers is an invincible warrior-android who can't speak and just wants to be nice.
