Gal Gadot is an Israeli actress best known for playing Wonder Woman in the DC Extended Universe. She rose to fame with Fast & Furious, and later starred in Red Notice, Death on the Nile, Heart of Stone, and Snow White. A former Miss Israel and model, she co-founded the production company Pilot Wave with her husband Jaron Varsano, voiced animation characters, and became a global brand ambassador. In 2025, she received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Gadot played "Wonder Woman" in the movie, Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016), and is signed for two future sequels, which include the Justice League and a solo Wonder Woman film. Gadot received swordsmanship, Kung Fu kickboxing, Capoeira and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu training in preparation for the role. As a result, Gadot's performance as the superhero, which is the first time for the character on film, was hailed as one of the best parts of the, otherwise, poorly-received film.
