The next important chapter in Gal’s career was the role of Diana Prince, Wonder Woman actually, in the film of the same name. In 2013 she crossed her ways with Zack Snyder, executive director at Warner Brothers. She was looking for an actress to play the small role of Wonder Woman in “Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice”. Gal captured Zack’s heart with her beauty, strength, and charisma. After that, she was offered not just a tiny part opposite Ben Affleck in “Batman v Superman”, but also the main role in the solo film.

As of now, her schedule is busy till 2024. She has several big screen projects, including the role of Evil Queen in “Snow White” and the main role in the movie “Cleopatra”.
