According to Heroic Hollywood, DC’s upcoming live-action Teen Titans series Titans is set to introduce another young hero, with the outlet reporting that Conor Leslie (Other Space, The Blacklist) is portraying Donna Troy, a.k.a. Wonder Girl.
Wonder Girl was first introduced as a member of the Teen Titans in the 1960s, where she was portrayed as the younger sister of Diana Prince/Wonder Woman. However, her origin has been revised on a number of occasions, most recently during the DC Rebirth initiative where she is presented as a golem created out of clay to destroy Wonder Woman, who was then granted false memories by the Amazons in order to allow her to establish a stable life as more than just a living weapon.
