Gal Gadot, the star of the upcoming Wonder Woman sequel, is taking some much-needed time to unwind before her hectic promotional schedule begins. The highly anticipated film will be released on Christmas day in theaters and on HBO Max. In a recent Instagram post, the 35-year-old actress showed off her natural beauty, opting for a makeup-free look that highlighted her flawless skin. She appeared completely at ease in the photo, enjoying some well-deserved relaxation time.
Taking a break: Gal Gadot flaunted her natural look without any makeup while lounging on a sofa in a white sundress with beige and gray patterns. She was seen relaxing outdoors, with her arm resting on the top of her head and one leg stretched out to show off her toned physique. The famous 5ft10in Israeli actress had her dark hair tied back and was sipping on a drink while enjoying her downtime. Gal’s peaceful expression was captured perfectly in the photo, which she captioned with the words “The calm before the storm…”
Exciting news! Gal is about to get pretty busy promoting her new movie, Wonder Woman 1984. The film is set to hit theaters and HBO Max on December 25th, and she’s gearing up to spread the word.
Wonder Woman is set to face new challenges in the upcoming film, which is set in the mid-1980s. The iconic superhero will be pitted against two formidable foes, Maxwell Lord played by Pedro Pascal of The Mandalorian fame, and Kristen Wiig’s supervillain Cheetah. Gal Gadot, who plays Wonder Woman, has not divulged much about the storyline but continues to remain busy amid the ongoing coronavirus pandemic. As the release date draws closer, the actress is expected to make several media appearances to promote the film. Interestingly, the new movie sees the return of Chris Pine’s character Steve Trevor, even though he died in the first film’s finale. How his character will be re-introduced remains a mystery.
Director Patty Jenkins, who achieved a box office success of over $800 million with the first Wonder Woman movie, is set to return for the upcoming sequel. The director was spotted alongside the cast in May 2017.
After achieving great success with the first Wonder Woman movie and grossing over $800 million, Patty Jenkins is set to direct the newest installment. Additionally, she and Gal will collaborate on a biopic about the legendary Egyptian queen Cleopatra. Elizabeth Taylor played this historical figure in the 1963 version of the film, which was criticized by reviewers at the time but has since gained popularity. Notably, the 1963 Cleopatra was the most expensive movie ever made and nearly led to the bankruptcy of 20th Century Fox.
Gal has recently wrapped up shooting for a new period movie, Death On The Nile, based on Agatha Christie’s murder-mystery. She will be sharing screen space with Armie Hammer, Annette Benning, Russell Brand, and Rose Leslie, while the film will be directed by Kenneth Branagh who will also be seen portraying the character of Hercule Poirot. However, due to the ongoing pandemic, the release of the movie has been delayed and the exact date is yet to be confirmed by 20th Century Studios. It is anticipated that the movie might hit the theaters in 2021 or 2022.
