While she served her two-year mandatory Israeli military service, she was a combat fitness instructor.

Gadot had an unsuccessful audition to be a Bond Girl in “Quantum of Solace,” but the casting director remembered her and cast her as Gisele in the fourth film of the “Fast and Furious” franchise. She reprised the role for the fifth and sixth films.
Her first appearance as Wonder Woman came in “Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice” in 2016.
More recently, she appeared in Netflix’s 2021 film “Red Notice” with Dwayne Johnson and Ryan Reynolds and in 2022’s rendition of the classic Agatha Christie story “Death on the Nile” alongside Kenneth Branaugh and Armie Hammer.
She currently has seven projects in various states of development and will reappear again soon as Cleopatra, Hedy Lamarr and the Snow Queen.
