Gal Gadot Getting Her Own Wonder Woman Movie? -- The Truth Revealed

Score one for the ladies! After years of female heroes playing second-fiddle to the Avengers and Batmans of the world, it looks like Gal Gadot’s Wonder Woman may finally be flying solo.

Gal Gadot has officially signed a three picture deal to play Princess Diana of Themyscira — or, as she’s widely know, Wonder Woman. Find out the details of this amazing deal — including whether or not it will include a standalone Wonder Woman film — below!

Gal Gadot Set To Star In Her Own Wonder Woman Film

It’s about freaking time. No offense to Scarlett Johansson, Gwyneth Paltrow, and especially Anne Hathaway — who would have been great in a standalone Catwoman film — but it’s been maddening to see the ladies always playing second-fiddle to the male leads in the bazillions of Marvel and DC films that have come out over the past decade or so. Not that Black Widow should take top billing in a movie about Iron Man, but isn’t it time for a female superhero to land her own film?

Gal Gadot Cast As Wonder Woman

Reportedly, Warner Brothers thinks that the answer to that question is a resounding “yes.” HollywoodLife.com‘s sister site Variety confirms that Gal, the Israeli actress who was recently cast as Wonder Woman, has signed a three-picture deal with Warner Bros. We already knew that she’d be playing the role in the upcoming Ben Affleck-led Batman vs. Superman film, but Variety‘s sources say that Gal will reprise her role in both a Justice League movie, and… drumroll please… a standalone Wonder Woman flick!

Now, we can’t get too excited just yet. If Gal’s performance in Batman vs. Superman is poorly received, the studio won’t give her a standalone film for obvious reasons — a Wonder Woman movie has been theoretically “in the works” for years, and of course they’re going to want to make sure they have the perfect star for the badass role.

No one has successfully stepped into Diana’s shiny red boots since Lynda Carter took on the role in the iconic TV series back in the ’70s, so if Gal and Warner Bros. successfully pull off a lucrative Wonder Woman film, it will be a remarkable achievement.

What do you think, HollywoodLifers? Do you agree that it’s about time for a Wonder Woman to step up and be a role model for the millions of girls who love superhero films?

Seriously? She’s The new Wonder Woman Really? First of all she’s way too skinny to fit the bill and second of all i think there’s at least one actress that is deserving of this role. Who u ask? why Phoebe Tonkin of course.

Please everyone: Lauren Brook aka CFLBROOKS on Instagram this woman is the perfect perfect Wonder Woman. The word needs to be spread. I’m only advocating because skinny chick they chose is not WW.

I seriously think if gals going to be the new Wonder Woman she needs to eat quite a few burgers bc she’s too dn skinny. No offense but Wonder Woman is jacked. Not skinny

I intended to put you a tiny remark in order to say thank you once again for your personal stunning things you’ve shown on this page.

I like her

Since they appear to be going to the original roots, where Wonder Woman didn’t speak English at first, this is inspired casting. I’m really looking forward t this movie now.

Jaimie Alexander could’ve been a great fit for the role

Don’t get me wrong, I like Gal Gadot. She was great in the Fast and Furious franchise. But I would have preferred Lynn Collins for the role. You should have seen her in the John Crater movie, she’d fit the Wonder Woman character perfectly. Course, I could be wrong about Gal, when I first heard Heath Ledger was playing the Joker I thought it would not have worked, boy did he prove me wrong. LOL

I hope it’s true, and I hope it works. Gal Gadot is no Lynda Carter, but I wish her well. The little girls of the new millenium need a superhero to look up to. The gay boys need one too. LOL

NOOOOOOO!!!! I’m a DC guy, but Marvel seems to be making all the right moves. I think we can all agree that when you imagine an actress portrayal of Wonder Woman, it looks NOTHING like Gal Gadot. The lady seems nice, but that doesn’t mean you can skip every meal of the day! I was so excited until I heard who cast for the role…. What. A. Shame.

It would have brought me excitement if this happened BEFORE DC Comics Nu 52 revamp of the Super Heroes. They pick an actress that looks NOTHING like Wonder Woman. She can buy fake boobs and work out all she wants she is NO Wonder Woman . Then Warner Bros more then likely is not dressing her in the iconic costume so how is this Wonder Woman? I will NOT pay a penny for a film in title only of the Wonder Woman name if she is does not materialize like Wonder Woman should look. Gal doesn’t exactly have to measure up to the ideal Lynda Carter but they should at least bring the look and actions of Wonder Woman. Katy Perry is a spitting image of what the charactor looks like. AND BLUE EYES! I want it to work but I am not excited at all with DC Comics current gritty direction. It feels like they already took something away that we didn’t even get yet.

I agree she’s way too skinny and if they truly intend on using her then she needs to eat and work out and your right she has blue eyes which gal doesn’t. Bad move DC

It all depends whether the audience responds to her in superman.vs.batman. and seeing as sack snyders in charge of that and it is a superman flick, she will hardly have a part and when she does it will be flat and hypersexualised so I don’t think the audiences will respond very well.

my co-worker’s mother brought in $20235 the prior week. she is making cash on the internet and got a $574200 condo. All she did was get blessed and try the directions leaked on this web page –

let’s pray this is just another made up gossip, folks

you mad?

I agree they should’ve used the other girl in fast in the furious 6 movie the one that used to be a UFC fighter she’s build like wonder woman and would’ve been a way better fit for that role. Not skinny gal.
