From Wonder Woman to the White House, the eternally gorgeous Lynda Carter is back on network TV! Variety announced today that the actress most famous for playing Wonder Woman in the 1970s has been cast in a recurring role of the President of the United States in the upcoming season of the CW’s Supergirl.
From Variety:
Executive producers Greg Berlanti and Andrew Kreisberg teased the casting in March, telling reporters that they had sought to cast Carter for the role last season, but that her schedule wouldn’t allow it. They added that they intended to make the casting happen in the upcoming second season.
Carter last appeared on television in a 2013 episode of CBS’ “Two and a Half Men.” She appeared on an episode of “Smallville” in 2007.
Her casting follows that of Tyler Hoechlin, who will play Superman in the upcoming second season of “Supergirl.”
Season 2 of “Supergirl” premieres Oct. 10 at 8 p.m. The series migrates to the CW next season after the first season aired on CBS.
