Actress Gal Gadot has signed on to play Wonder Woman in three films, with the character premiering in Superman Vs Batman.

Gadot is best known for her role as Gisele in the Fast and Furious series. She is an Israeli actress and model. It was confirmed that she was cast in the role of Wonder Woman back in early December, but now we know that the studio plans to use her for at least three films, which includes one solo film.

This could mean that they’ll be taking a shot at a standalone Wonder Woman film if the character is well received in Superman Vs Batman. Man of Steel’s sequel was recently delayed by 10 months, pushing the release date to May 6, 2016.

As with Ben Affleck being cast as Batman, there was also some backlash about Gadot being cast as Wonder Woman. Fans cited that she was “too skinny” to play the female superhero, but we think she’s quite capable of pulling it off. She recently revealed she’s working with a trainer to “bulk up” for the role.

Director Zack Snyder released a statement about Gadot’s casting, saying, “Wonder Woman is arguably one of the most powerful female characters of all time and a fan favorite. Not only is Gal an amazing actress, but she also has that magical quality that makes her perfect for the role.”

While a three picture deal is fairly normal in the superhero department, it does give us an idea of how big her role will be in Superman Vs Batman. The interview also revealed she was being paid $300,000 for her part in the first film, which sounds about right compared to what other first time superheroes have made. For reference, Chris Hemsworth made $200,000 for his first outing as Thor.

Ben Affleck, who has been cast as Batman in the film, recently discussed his role in the film and says that he was “won over” after some time discussing the character and film with Snyder and the film’s writer David S. Goyer.

Henry Cavill will reprise his role as Superman from 2013’s Man of Steel. Man of Steel went on to garner fairly positive reviews and pulled in a worldwide total of $662 million.

Gal Gadot is a solid choice for Wonder Woman, as she has gained quite a lot of experience dealing with fighting sequences in the Fast and Furious franchise, as well as completing some substantial stunt work.

Now that we know she’ll be a pretty major player in the first Superman Vs Batman, it’s exciting to know where she’ll be headed for her second film. We’re hoping it’ll be the first female superhero centered film in quite some time.

Jennifer Lawrence has paved the way with The Hunger Games: Catching Fire, proving that strong female leads can bring in massive box office totals. Catching Fire recently became the highest grossing domestic film in 2013 with $418 million and $853 million worldwide.

We look forward to seeing Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman and hope the recent film delays don’t cause any issues moving forward.

Superman Vs Batman, which is most likely a placeholder title, has its new release date set for May 6, 2016.
