Gal Gadotis already ahead of the curve when it comes to playing Wonder Woman.
During our interview
So, what is the best thing about getting to play Wonder Woman?
GAL GADOT: Not that.
[laughter] The best part?
Somehow I think that I always wished to play Wonder Woman, without even knowing it myself.
Whats the most challenging thing, and feel free to say running on a treadmill forever.

So, its, the physicality of it is really challenging, but I like it.
It makes me happy after I do it right, but I really, really love Diana.
I love everything about her.

I love the story.
She has a heart of a human being, powers of goddess and a very wise brain.
So, I, shes everything.

Whos your favorite character other than yourself.
Whos your favorite character so far?
GADOT: The main one is Steve, and I really, really enjoy working with Chris.

GADOT: Well, the character is different.
In this one, this is the coming of age of Diana.
Building off of that, we heard in the most recent trailer, your voice.
InBatman v Superman, you kind of have…
GADOT: What do you think of my voice?
GADOT: Her accent on, in this one, in Wonder Woman is more Themysciarian.
Shes still foreign, Shes still from a different place.
Can you talk about Dianas relationship with her mom?
GADOT: Yeah, interesting question.
So, as you know, Connie Nielson plays my mother.
Shes fantastic, and I really enjoy working with her.
Diana is a very opinionated girl.
So, shes very, very opinionated.
Her mother is very opinionated.
Shes veryits easy to relate to her.
Other than her physical strength, what do you think makes her such a feministic hero?
GADOT: Other than her powers?
Its not even an issue, you know.
She sees, she feels that she can do everything and she will go for it.
Shes a peace seeker; she wouldnt go and look to start a battle or a fight.
And I asked her, And what about the princesses?
And how do you think they should be, Alma?
(My daughters name is Alma.)
She said, They should be strong.
She believes she can do everything, and thats a true woman for me.
Did you follow Wonder Womans story when you were growing up?
GADOT: Not really, to be honest.
After I got cast, I saw some of the reruns.
Is your daughter familiar with Wonder Woman?
GADOT: Yes, she is.
Yes, she is.
GADOT: Yeah, shes super excited.
You were talking about pop culture figures for young people to look up and the boys had many.
Who did you look up to in pop culture when you were young?
How would you sell this movie to boys who may be thinking well, this is for girls?
GADOT: This is such a universal story.
Its such a universal story.
How do you juggle the fantastic of gods and goddesses and superpowers with the actual historical setting of WWI?
So the actual setting really?
Weve heard that Diana really has own fighting style for her, that mixes things.
Can you talk about figuring that out and training for it?
GADOT: The training, yeah, I did a lot of training.
I trained, I do swords training.
GADOT: Im going to call it WonderFu.
