Gal Gadot happened to be all over the news yesterday but not for Wonder Woman 1984. The actor is all set to play famous Egyptian Queen Cleopatra in the historical drama directed by Petty Jenkins. But it seems like this news has not just garnered love and praises, but some questions too. Many have questioned Gadot’s and the inaccuracy of it on Twitter. Below is what the Twitterati is saying about the news.
Announcing her next collaboration with the Wonder Woman filmmaker, Gal wrote, “As you might have heard, I teamed up with Patty Jenkins and Leata Kalogridis to bring the story of Cleopatra, Queen of Egypt, to the big screen in a way she`s never been seen before. To tell her story for the first time through women`s eyes, both behind and in front of the camera…We hope women and girls all around the world, who aspire to tell stories will never give up on their dreams and will make their voices heard, by and for other women”.
