This article, which was written prior to the COVID-19 outbreak in the United States, is being published at a time of significant changes to our daily lives. Gal Gadot, like many of us, has been impacted by the pandemic – her children’s school has closed, and her upcoming projects, including the release of Wonder Woman 1984 in June, have been put on hold (and later postponed until August 14). When reached in mid-March with her family, she remained positive despite the circumstances, stating that they were doing their best to make the most of their time together at home. While these times are surreal and unprecedented, she remained hopeful that we will overcome this challenge.
The cover of the magazine features Gal Gadot, who is dressed in a stunning Louis Vuitton dress and Tiffany & Co. earring. To achieve a similar look, one can try using Revlon products such as PhotoReady Candid Glow Moisture Glow Foundation in Creme Brulee, PhotoReady Candid Antioxidant Concealer in Bisque, PhotoReady Instant Cheek Maker in Sugarplum, So Fierce! Mascara in Black, Colorstay Browlights in Soft Black, and Super Lustrous The Luscious Mattes Lipstick in If I Want To. The hair was styled by Renato Campora, and the makeup was done by Sabrina Bedrani. The photograph was taken by Annie Leibovitz for Vogue magazine in May 2020. Spending time with Gal Gadot is a relaxing experience as she exudes a nonchalant attitude that puts others at ease. Despite her busy life as a parent and a successful actress, she makes it seem effortless and stress-free. Therefore, it feels inappropriate to have a formal interview with her as it is more like a casual hangout.

In an interview, she admitted that she always feels out of place in L.A., where she has been living because of her success as Wonder Woman. She misses the closeness of everything in her hometown, where everything is within a five-minute walk, and all neighbors are friends. Gadot admits that life in L.A. can be alienating, especially for someone as spontaneous as she is, as everything must be planned and strategized. Even a simple errand like buying milk can take an hour because of travel time.
One surreal experience Gadot had was bumping into Adele, whom she did not recognize at first. She stopped to chat with the singer, who was getting her cardio fix before her real workout. The encounter demonstrates that Gadot is not just any cool Israeli chick but an international superstar.
Although it may seem like Gadot became an overnight success after her role in Wonder Woman, she has been acting for more than a decade. She won the Miss Israel pageant in 2004, competed in Miss Universe and served two years in the Israel Defense Forces as a combat fitness instructor. She met her husband while still in the military and later enrolled in law school in Tel Aviv. She started modeling and eventually auditioned for several film roles, including the Bond-girl role in Quantum of Solace. Though she did not get that part, she landed a role in Fast & Furious because of her familiarity with military weapons.
Gadot’s rise to fame was unexpected. After catching the eye of a casting director while studying law and modeling in Israel, she landed a role in the Fast & Furious franchise. However, prior to becoming Wonder Woman, Gadot was considering quitting acting altogether due to the disappointment of repeatedly going through callbacks and not getting roles. Despite now being an actor living in L.A., she sees herself as more than just her job title and wants to continue evolving and taking on bigger and more interesting roles. While she considers herself ambitious, she also believes in karma and not fighting for things that aren’t meant to be hers. Gadot prioritizes her family and finds balance between her successful career and personal life. During a visit to her daughter’s school, Gadot read to her class and helped decorate cupcakes, showing that despite her stardom, she remains down-to-earth and relatable.
Gal Gadot, known for her role in Wonder Woman, has an infectious personality that attracts people from all walks of life, according to Vogue’s May 2020 issue. She is a loyal friend who is always there to make people laugh and has an easygoing nature that puts people at ease. Her husband, Jaron, attributes this to her clear intentions and pure heart. The couple met at a yoga retreat in the desert where they fell in love at first sight and are now raising two daughters together. Gadot, who always knew she wanted to be a young mother, has enrolled her eldest daughter in a London school due to her frequent filming in the city. In addition to acting, Gadot has started her own production company, Pilot Wave, with her husband, which currently has 14 projects in development. The company’s first project is a series based on the book Hedy Lamarr: The Most Beautiful Woman in Film. Despite her fame, Gadot remains humble and is committed to using her platform to inspire young girls to be courageous and make positive changes in the world during trying times.
