The upcoming Wonder Woman superhero film is scheduled for release only in June 2017 but fans of the DC Comics series are eagerly collecting every tidbit available about the impending movie.

Gal Gadot, the Israeli actress who will be portraying the Amazonian Diana Prince in the movie, posted a snapshot of behind-the-scenes fighting on her Twitter and Instagram feeds. The photo fielded over 170,000 views in two days.

It’s not just play acting, either. Gadot, who served in the IDF, has weapons and combat training. After all, that’s how she initially scored the recurring role of Gisele Yashar in the Fast and Furious series.

Gadot is set to star alongside Chris Pine, Robin Wright, David Thewlis, Ewen Bremner, Lucy Davis and Elena Anaya in Wonder Woman.
