Bionic Woman Background
The Bionic Woman has been commissioned for a full series on US television, after NBC put together a successful pilot starring British Actress, Michelle Ryan.
Based on the 1970s original, starring Linda Wagner, the series revolves around main character Jaime Sommers (played by Ryan), a struggling-to-make-ends meet bar-tender who is involved in a horrific near-fatal car accident. When she wakes up after the accident, she discovers that she has been implanted with $50 million worth of bionic material - legs, arm, eyes, ear. Now she needs to pay back her mysterious benefactors investment, and there starts the tale - the Bionic Woman’s fight against crime!
Coming from producer David Eick, who revived the Battlestar Galactica series so spectacularly, this series promises to be essential viewing.
