Before she smashed the box office records for her portrayal of the strong, compassionate, and lovely Princess of Themyscira, Gal Gadot has long displayed the beauty, athleticism, and grace of Wonder Woman. As a child, Gadot studied dance, played several sports, and dreamed of becoming a choreographer. At 18, she was surprised when she was crowned Miss Israel, and her victory helped her with her career in modeling. However, prior to building her career as a model and actress, Gadot served her mandatory two years in the Israeli Defense Forces, undergoing a brutal three-month boot camp before getting assigned as a combat trainer.

Gadot made her Hollywood debut as Gisele Yashar in the 2009 action film Fast & Furious where she performed her own stunts. Then, she landed the role of a lifetime as Princess Diana of the Amazonian race in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, Wonder Woman, Justice League, and the upcoming Wonder Woman 1984. Her role as Wonder Woman made a cultural impact everywhere, and in 2018, Gadot was recognized by Time magazine as one of the most influential people in the world.
