Elizabeth Hurley says she's "thrilled" to be joining the cast of NBC's upcoming reimagining of Wonder Woman. The 45-year-old actress will be playing an evil villain in the show's pilot episode.

Writing on her twitter page, Elizabeth said: "Thrilled to be doing the NBC pilot Wonder Woman. I'll be playing the evil villain. Can't wait."

While Lynda Carter originally played the iconic superhero -- who was first brought to life in DC Comics -- relatively unknown star Adrianne Palicki is set to assume the lead role in the pilot. However, last month's casting announcement may have come as a disappointment to Mad Men actress Christina Hendricks, who recently admitted she would love to play the part.

She said: "I've been wanting to wear that outfit my whole life! I'd love to do it. That would be such fun! Let's put it out there!"

The initial episode of Wonder Woman is to be made by studio giants Warner Bros, with Ally McBeal writer and producer David E. Kelly penning it and the subsequent series if it proves to be popular.

He recently explained while he enjoyed taking the helm, it was a "complicated" show to write.

David said: "I had a lot of fun writing it. It's a very complicated piece, which is the most fun thing about it."

Elizabeth Hurley Dumps Boyfriend

Maybe Elizabeth Hurley and husband Arun Nayar really aren’t getting divorced (as the former model insisted via twitter) but are just going through a rough patch?

Only last Monday a British tabloid published pictures and video of Elizabeth kissing cricket player Shane Warne and both admitted on twitter that their marriages were in trouble.


Now Radar Online reports that Elizabeth has dumped Shane after finding out he’s also dating ANOTHER woman, Adele Angeleri. Adele’s husband, Denis, wasn’t too happy to find out about it, either: he’s released over 100 messages Shane sent his wife.

“My advice to Liz would be to steer well clear of him,” Denis Angeleri said.

Goodness! Maybe this is the reason Elizabeth isn’t hurrying to divorce her husband?

Splitsville for Hurley-Nayar

Reacting to the reports that she cheated on her hubby with cricket star Shane Warne, Liz Hurley has revealed that she had separated from her Indian tycoon husband Arun Nayar "a few months ago".

A Sunday tabloid published pictures of the model and sportsman sharing a series of steamy clinches and claimed Hurley had spent two nights with the womanising Australian, 41, in his London hotel suite this week.

"Not a great day. For the record, my husband Arun & I separated a few months ago. Our close family & friends were aware of this," the Daily Mail quoted Liz as tweeting.

But she didn't make any reference to her relationship with Warne - who she has been exchanging flirty tweets with since the summer - or spell out exactly when she split from Nayar.

The News of the World claims to have captured on video the pair embracing and kissing outside restaurant Sake No Hana earlier this week.

"They were so passionate they looked like honeymooners. It was electric," a source is quoted in the paper today as saying.

The paper said: "Hurley and Warne roared with laughter and chatted like old friends during the lively meal in a first-floor room. And at 1am they were spotted going down the escalator to the lobby area.

"While they waited for their coats to be brought to them Hurley reportedly pulled Warne towards her into a darkened doorway, cupped his face with her hands and leaned in to lock lips.

"After releasing from their clinch they gazed into each other's eyes and smiled adoringly," the paper reported.

They were also said to have flirted again in front of Liz's ex fiance Hugh Grant during the meal on Wednesday night.

Hurley and Warne were reportedly spotted exchanging more lingering kisses after popping out of the cricketer's luxury 1,750 pound-a-night suite at the Bentley Hotel in South Kensington - less than one mile from Hurley's London home.

On their second night together, they were locked away in the same suite for more than 11 hours, the paper said. They were also seen smooching and kissing again during a meal on Thursday at San Lorenzo in Chelsea.

A witness told the paper, "They looked completely smitten and blissfully happy together."

Elizabeth Hurley: ‘I put myself under pressure to remain slim’

Elizabeth Hurley: ‘I put myself under pressure to remain slim’

Hot 45 year-old actress Elizabeth Hurley has something to share:

“I realized I’d got into a terrible habit of wolfing my food – hardly chewing at all. I really try to chew everything now and it’s made a massive difference to my digestion and I think it makes you eat less. I’m also trying not to eat so late at night, which again helps your digestion.”

“I put myself under pressure to remain slim because I still model my own bikinis and I’ve lost about 8lbs in the last few months.The first thing most people ask me when they meet me is, ‘How do you stay slim?’ My organic snack bars are one of my secrets. They’re under 100 calories and help me resist crisps and chocolate.”

… says Elizabeth. (skinnyvscurvy)
