Gal Gadot (pronounced [ˈɡal ɡaˈdot]; born 30 April 1985) is an Israeli actress. She gained recognition for portraying Wonder Woman in the DC Extended Universe films (2016–2023). In 2018, she was named one of Time's 100 Most Influential People and ranked by Forbes as the tenth-highest-paid actress, later rising to third in 2020. She became the first Israeli actor to receive a  Hollywood Walk of Fame star in 2025. Gadot grew up in Rosh HaAyin and first gained attention locally after winning  Miss Israel 2004. She then served two years in the Israel Defense Forces as a combat trainer, during which time she participated in a Maxim photo shoot that boosted her public profile. She then began modelling and endorsing various brands. She made her television debut in the drama Bubot in 2008, followed by her film debut in a supporting role as Gisele Yashar in Fast & Furious (2009), reprising it in multiple sequels. Her breakout role came in 2016 when she portrayed Wonder Woman in Batman v Superman. The film's success led to her starring in Wonder Woman (2017), a major box-office hit. She also reprised the role in Justice League (2017) and Wonder Woman 1984 (2020). Since then, she has appeared in Red Notice (2021), Death on the Nile (2022), Heart of Stone (2023), which she co-produced, and co-starred as the Evil Queen In Disney's remake of Snow White (2025). Beyond acting, Gadot and her husband have co-founded a film production company, launched a food brand, and invested in Israeli startups. She is widely celebrated in Israel as a national icon and ambassador. However, her strong support for the Israeli military and the hostage crisis has sparked both praise and criticism.
