Gal Gadot

was nervous to play Wonder Woman, here’s why!

Playing Wonder Woman may have seemed like a no-brainer for Gal Gadot, but the actress recently revealed that she had some reservations when she signed on to play the famous superhero. Speaking with Parade, she opened up about feeling nervous on taking the titular role in 2017's Wonder Woman, explaining that she wanted to honour the legacy the character has with fans while also building upon it to deliver something that would resonate with audiences. "It's been an amazing journey that I never could have anticipated, and I've enjoyed every moment of bringing this character to life," she told the outlet. "But I will say that when I was told I was going to have my own movie, I was super nervous. I'd never been the title." Gadot continued, "It was important for me to bring something good to the world and to bring a character that matters.” She revealed that she wasn't aware that she was up for this role, admitting that the secretive nature of her auditions kept her in the dark for some time. Despite portraying one of the most famous characters of all time, she assured that she never expected Wonder Woman to become the massive success that it is today. Next up for Gadot is Wonder Woman: 1984, which is slated for theatrical release in August, and she's confident that the highly anticipated sequel will have the same effect.
