Gal Gadot's Wonder Woman Returns in a New Phone-Shot Video
Zack Snyder, the visionary director behind the iconic 'Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice', has unveiled a captivating behind-the-scenes glimpse into the making of Wonder Woman. In a heartwarming display of cinematic magic, Gadot reprises her role as the iconic superhero, showcasing one of her signature moves in slow motion. This newly released video offers a rare, intimate look at the meticulous preparation and dedication that goes into bringing these larger-than-life characters to life.
Snyder's Instagram post, captioned 'First ever Gauntlet Smash practice with @gal_gadot Shot on my phone. Pure joy, pure power', has already garnered significant attention. The clip, set to the hauntingly beautiful 'Is She With You?' by Hans Zimmer and Junkie XL, the official Wonder Woman theme, has received over 64.5K likes and 2.1K comments since its posting. The video not only showcases Gadot's exceptional talent but also pays homage to the character's iconic gauntlet clash, a pivotal moment in her DCEU debut in 'Batman v Superman' (2016).
Despite the film's mixed reception, with a 28% score on Rotten Tomatoes, Gadot's portrayal of Diana Prince has been widely celebrated. She has since graced the screen in multiple DCEU films, including 'Wonder Woman' (2017), 'Justice League' (2017), 'Wonder Woman 1984' (2020), 'Zack Snyder's Justice League' (2021), 'Shazam! Fury of the Gods' (2023), and 'The Flash' (2023).
However, the future of Wonder Woman in the DCEU remains uncertain. While Gadot expressed her willingness to reprise the role in discussions with James Gunn and Peter Safran in 2023, these plans were ultimately denied by DC Studios. The studio's recent restructuring led to the cancellation of Patty Jenkins' 'Wonder Woman 3'.
Adding to the intrigue, Ana Nogueira, the writer of 'Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow', is currently developing a new Wonder Woman project. The details of this venture remain under wraps, as DC Studios has not yet announced the casting or revealed any plans to include the character in 'Superman: Legacy' or 'Man of Tomorrow'. The excitement surrounding this potential new chapter in Wonder Woman's story continues to build, leaving fans eagerly anticipating further developments.
