The golden Lasso of Truth won't be needed to confirm the rumors: Keri Russell is indeed the star of the February 2009 animated DVD movie Wonder Woman, the next in a series from Warner Bros. and DC Comics following Tuesday's release of Batman: Gotham Knight. (Check out the full poster here.)The Felicity star voices Princess Diana, the Amazon-turned-superhero. "This story is funny and action-packed and adult in a nice way," Russell says. "Then they said Nathan Fillion was playing opposite me, and that made it that much better." Fillion, who costarred with Russell in the 2007 indie darling Waitress, plays Air Force pilot Steve Trevor, who crash lands on the Amazon's island. "Playing second fiddle to Keri is a wonderful fiddle to play," Fillion says. "I've done it before, I'll do it again—quite happily." The Desperate Housewives star adds, "What I like about Steve Trevor is that he's a very real guy. He's very honest and he's very natural. He doesn't apologize for much. And he's ab...

Fanboys and girls the world over are about to find out what I've known all along: Keri Russell is a superhero! Reliable sources confirm to me exclusively that my reigning BFF is in advanced talks to voice the title role in Warner Bros' straight-to-DVD animated Wonder Woman feature. The flick, which is slated for release in late '08/early '09, is part of a new line of DVD feature adaptations by Warner Bros. Animation and DC Comics. The first, Superman: Doomsday, hit stores in September and promptly flew off the shelves. Upcoming releases include Justice League: New Frontier (2/26) and Batman: Gotham Knight.It's probably safe to assume that new-mum Russell would record her dialogue sometime in Feb./March whilst she's in L.A. shooting the Adam Sandler comedy Bedtime Stories. In related news, a $100 reward has been posted for information leading to the exact dates of those audio sessions, as well as the address of said recording studio. Send any/all tips to ask_ausiello@tvguide.com.So, ...

Question: Is it true that Keri Russell is going to be back on Scrubs this season? If so, got any details?
Answer: She hasn't been approached as of yet — and I know this because I asked her myself when she (wait for it, wait for it) visited me at my office yesterday! Really! The proof is in the pudding, and by "pudding" I mean next week's episode of my Ausiello Report vodcast!

It seems like a more innocent time, when a haircut could rock an entire network. But that's what happened when Felicity star Keri Russell's trademark curly locks were shorn during a summer hiatus in 1999. The early WB fave was never the same after that follicle debacle. Susanne Daniels, who was the creative executive behind many of the network's early successes, and Variety deputy editor Cynthia Littleton have recounted the wild ride of the short-lived six network era in Season Finale: The Unexpected Rise and Fall of the WB and UPN (Harper Books). When reading the story, it's hard to believe two over-the-air broadcast networks were launched only a dozen years before we made a habit out of watching TV on our computers. Both UPN and the WB (which merged to become the CW last year) were born out of their studio-owners' fear that once the government allowed the established networks to produce their own series, they would be shut out of prime time. That never happened. But the youth-orie...

Zach Braff and Keri Russell by Trae Patton/NBC
I never thought I'd say this, but my 19-second cameo as Dr. Kim's insanely irresistible obstetrician is not the biggest thing to happen to Scrubs this season. No, that honor belongs to my reigning BFF Keri Russell, who on April 26 returns to her small-screen roots with a two-episode arc as an old friend of Elliot's. To mark the occasion, I did something I haven't done since I misplaced her digits nearly two years ago: I got her on the phone. Since last we connected, my beloved Felicity grad died in Tom Cruise's arms, posed nude in Vanity Fair, became the new face of CoverGirl, turned 30, became a waitress, was the toast of Sundance, got pregnant, married a carpenter and made out with Zach Braff. Long story short: We had much to discuss. You've been busy since last we spoke.[Laughs] I've had a few life changes.Congratulations on the wedding...Thank you.… and the baby.Thank you.How's everything?Everything is really good. It's a really fun, exciting time in my life, that's for sur...
