She played a fellow Krypton native and ally of Clark Kent/Superman in an episode of Smallville (2001), she played a villain in the aborted "Aquaman" series, and she played Diana Prince/Wonder Woman in a 2011 pilot that was not picked up for a series.Two years later, Gal Gadot successfully won the role of Diana Prince/Wonder Woman for Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016) and other live action theatrical films involving the DC Extended Universe.
- She worked at Togo's as a sandwich maker when she first got to Los Angeles.
- Ranked #79 on Maxim magazine's Hot 100 of 2007 list.
- When I lived in New York for those three months, I needed to see a play every week, because eventually that's where I want to end up.
- I think the character of "Kara" on Smallville (2001) was a little different from the one in the comic because her motive is different. She's not evil by any means, whatsoever, but she does come to Clark for a specific reason. She doesn't really have a sense of right or wrong; the morality isn't there.
- My psyche has been very impacted in that there are moments where you're, like, 'Do I really want to do this?' Though I know in my heart this is what I really want to do, the question was: would I enjoy the process itself?
- I would love to do Broadway, I don't think there's anything more amazing than theatre. Okay, Supergirl is number one. Maybe I could be Supergirl on Broadway! That would be perfect.
- In all honesty, it's unbelievable to get these roles. You work so hard when you're trying to be cast and to get a guest role on a low budget show would be a dream come true, but to be able to do these two shows and play these characters, there are no words. I am so lucky to have done them.
