‘Wonder Woman’ Spoilers: Gal Gadot Says Film Won’t Be About ‘Women Versus Men’

It’s already been said that Gal Gadot’s Wonder Woman will be quite different in her upcoming standalone film compared to her stint in “Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice,” but, of course, there will be some parts of her that remain the same.

In Zack Snyder’s film, Wonder Woman was reluctant to fight and did not enjoy causing violence. Gadot said that her character will be the same in her standalone film.

“With this character, what I love about her so much is that her agenda is love. It’s not about fighting, it’s not about who is stronger than whom; it’s not about women versus men. It’s about love, and acceptance of others. She stands for love, justice and compassion,” she said during a chat with We Got This Covered.

Apart from that, Wonder Woman will be quite different. “On this film, we went back to Diana’s backstory – to her history, her coming of age. How did Diana become Wonder Woman?” she continued.

She even told Sci-Fi Now that fans can expect to see Wonder Woman as “more naive” and “purer,” since “she is a young idealist who does not yet understand the complexities of life.”

Earlier, Gadot told Cinema Blend that it was important for her to do justice to her character because she wanted to give her daughter Alma a positive role model to look up to.

“Being a mother with a three and a half year old daughter, it's really important for me that, it's really important for me to show her, oh my God, it's really important for me to show her that women are great and women can follow their dreams and do what they feel like doing,” she said.

“Wonder Woman,” which is directed by Patty Jenkins, will be released on June 2, 2017.
