It seems that the Arrowverse will once again be pulling from DC Comics' most famous heroes as a new Wonder Girl series is in development. This time, however, it seems that DC will be using the TV network as a launching pad because this live-action introduction will serve as the official debut of a new comic book character set to take on the Wonder Girl mantle.

Focusing on a young Latina girl named Yara Flora who discovers that she is the daughter of an Amazonian warrior and a Brazilian river god, the show will document her journey as she steps up to take on evildoers that threaten those she loves.

This won't be the first time the Wonder Girl persona appears on the small screen - we've previously seen Debra Winger portray an original version for the classic Wonder Woman TV series and Conor Leslie currently plays the Donna Troy version on Titans - but introducing this new version via a property like the Arrowverse could do wonders for the character's future in both comic books and live-action.
