The Wonder Woman pilot came before the Lynda Carter television series and featured Cathy Lee Crosby in a costume reflective of Wonder Woman in the comics at the time. Ricardo Montalban plays laconic lothario Abner Smith, who lurks at the top of the conspiracy to make off with ultra-secret code books -- leading Agent Prince to discover an Amazon sister-in-exile.

Guest-stars include George Lazenby and Britt Ekland as Jor-El and Lara; Philip Michael Thomas as Brimstone; Michael Callan as Metallo; and Michael J. Pollard as Mr. Mxyzptik.
