Gal Gadot has recently revealed that she stayed busy during the filming of “Wonder Woman” while five months pregnant with her second child. The actress took it to Twitter to announce her pregnancy. She said that the filmmakers asked her to reshoot several action scenes before “Wonder Woman” could be handed over to the marketing department.
Diana Prince
For the first time, “Wonder Woman” is bringing Diana Prince to the big screen. The leading role is played by Israeli model, Gal Gadot. She made her DCEU debut in the 2016 blockbuster “Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice,” which means Gal is not new to superhero films.
The Hollywood actress tweeted that it wasn’t easy to wrap filming of “Wonder Woman.” She faced a lot of problems on the set. The film is packed with numerous fight sequences and Gal spent a lot of time training for the character.
