Meet the New Wonder Woman!

Have you heard of it? Gal Gadot!



Gal Gadot was just chosen as the new Wonder Woman in the forthcoming DC movie. The 28 year old Israeli was known in the "Fast & Furious" movies. She started her career as a model after winning Miss Israel when she was 19 and made her acting on Israeli TV. She was given a break in Hollywood in 2009 when she bagged a role in Fast & Furious, then subsequently she sealed important roles in the 5th and 6th installments of the Fast & Furious franchise.

Zack Snyder, the director of the "Batman vs. Superman", a sequel movie to "Man of Steel",  said "Wonder Woman is arguably one of the most powerful female characters of all time and a fan favorite in the DC Universe. Not only is Gal an amazing actress, but she also has that magical quality that makes her perfect for the role. We look forward to audiences discovering Gal in the first feature film incarnation of this beloved character."


Gadot tweeted after she had known her new character, "Wonder Women! So exciting!!! Can't express how happy I am :))))".

Linda Carter, who played the role in TV series from 1975 to 1979 also tweeted within a few hours of the news: "Congratulations to Gal Gadot!."

Elsewhere, blogger Drew McWeeny wrote: "I've met Gal Gadot. She's very pretty. She also looks like she'd snap in half if I leaned on her wrong."

While this Wonder Woman character will just be a part of the planned Man of Steel sequel movie, Warner and DC might be considering to launch a new Wonder Woman franchise with Gadot wearing the beloved star-spangled costume.


It has been long years now since Linda Carter flaunted the character. This new development will certainly revive the long forgotten woman superhero!
