Israeli-born “Wonder Woman” Gal Gadot lent her star power to a short video clip celebrating accomplished young Israeli women: an air force pilot, a marketing manager, a physician and a medal-winning kite- and sup-surfer.
The former Miss Israel, who has made it big in Hollywood for her role in feature films including “Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice,” readily agreed to take part in the feel-good film conceived by three female Israeli media students who told Ynet that they “wished to show the world and various audiences a different side of Israel, instead of focusing on its landscapes or the Tel Aviv nightlife.”
Gadot was an IDF combat trainer before going on to her career as a model and actress.
