Gal Gadot Is A Real Life Wonder Woman

She does her own stunts. She’s trained in combat, multilingual, and isn’t afraid of anything. Are we talking about Gal Gadot or Wonder Woman? Before becoming Wonder Woman, Gal Gadot was as close to a real-life Amazonian warrior as any one could be. The star is bilingual, is combat-trained and well versed in a variety of weaponry. From a young age, Gadot studied dance, and wanted to be a choreographer before eventually pursuing a career as an actress. Despite being hounded by modelling scouts, Gadot was not interested in a modelling career, and shortly after her high school graduation, Gadot’s mother entered her into the Miss Israel pageant in 2004, which 18-year-old Gadot won. Afterwards, the star became a combat instructor for the Israel Defence Force before she became an actor. Gadot found a love of acting in university, when she was scouted, but was eventually rejected for a role in Quantum of Solace as James Bond’s love interest. After years of near misses for life-changing roles, Gadot was about to quit acting, but a mystery audition for an unnamed role landed her the part of Wonder Woman, making Gadot a household name. For the film, Gadot underwent six months of gruelling training harder than her army days and gained 17 pounds of muscle, and even reshot scenes while pregnant. A true wonder woman on and off screen, Gadot feels responsible to use her platform to shed light on important issues, raising money for children’s education, COVID-19 relief and more. On and off screen, Gal Gadot is a real life Wonder Woman. Written by: Marlena Fulkerson Narrated by: Carmen S. Edited by: Fabián T.
