THE BIONIC WOMAN is a Go for Next Season

Variety reports that NBC has greenlit a year’s worth of commitment to a remake of the “Bionic Woman” TV show, to star British actress Michelle Ryan (below). The show will be produced by David Eick, Glen Morgan, Jason Smilovic and Michael Dinner, and Ryan will star as a woman who gets remade into a, well, basically a cyborg — half robot, half human. No idea if they’re going to follow the premise of the original ’70s show, but I’m sure they’ll tweak the character’s origins to fit the contemporary world. Look for Ryan’s Bionic Woman to be a martial artist, ass-kicking super agent or somesuch. Hey, sounds good to me!
