Gal Gadot Talks on Wonder Woman’s Coming of Age and Core Story

Gal Gadot in a recent interview with the United Kingdom magazine SciFiNow, spoke on the theme of the solo Wonder Woman movie on Diana’s place in life that differs to her introduction in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice and one of the reasons Patty Jenkins took on the job to direct the film. 

“In Batman V Superman, you are being introduced to a very experienced, dark Wonder Woman. She has been around for a while. Something happened 100 years ago that made her not want to be involved in a man’s world. However, we are going to tell the entire coming of age story of Diana. We’re going to see how she becomes Wonder Woman. She is very different to the Diana that you see in [Dawn Of Justice]. She is more naïve and she’s purer. She is a young idealist who does not yet understand the complexities of life.

I think that the heart of the movie is about the coming of age of Diana. Diana is so passionate about life and she is so passionate about love and truth and justice – and she is very inspiring, even to me. One of the reasons why Patty Jenkins agreed to do this movie was because of the core story. The action is fantastic. You will have action – but we have a very, very solid story to tell.”
