From Wonder Woman to married woman: Adrianne Palicki is engaged.

The “Friday Night Lights” alum, who was famously cast in a scrapped reboot of “Wonder Woman” for NBC, is affianced to stuntman Jackson Spidell, her publicist’s office confirmed Wednesday.

No word yet on how Spidell proposed nor a potential wedding date.

The couple met while filming the upcoming action flick “John Wick,” which hits theaters in October, according to People. Spidell did stunt work for Palicki’s costar, Keanu Reeves.

Palicki, 31, hasn’t ventured far from the comic hero genre. The “G.I. Joe: Retaliation” actress is set to appear in the upcoming season of “Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.” and will portray agent Bobbi Morse, a.k.a. Mockingbird.

“So excited to be playing Mockingbird!! Such an honor!” the actress tweeted when the casting news was announced in August.

She’ll also reprise her role as Dr. Samantha Lake in NBC’s “About a Boy” when the comedy returns for its second season in October.

Spidell played a District 10 tribute in “The Hunger Games: Catching Fire” and did stunt work for the previous installment of the franchise. He’s also worked on “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles,” “True Blood,” “The Expendables 2,” “Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows” and numerous other big-budget films.
