‘Fast & Furious’ star Gal Gadot cast as Wonder Woman in ‘Batman vs Superman’
Warner Bros that Gal Gadot will be playing Wonder Woman in Batman vs. Superman.
There are no details about her role, whether she will be in action or just Diana. Director Zack Snyder made this statement:
“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 is famous for her role as Gisele in the last three Fast & Furious films. She will likely have signed on for several films, possibly a solo film as well as an Avengers style teamup Justice League film.
Variety says that The Flash is a lock to “make an appearance in some fashion, whether that’s a significant role or a cameo.”
Wonder Woman and Nightwing had long since rumored to be part of the film.
Batman vs Superman is set to arrive in theaters July 17, 2015.
