Batman v. Superman: Dawn Of Justice will see DC Comics' long-awaited extended cinematic universe finally come to life when the trinity of Superman, Batman, & Wonder Woman finally come face-to-face on the big screen, which should be a glorious moment for fans everywhere.
After 2013's Man Of Steel, most should already know what they'll be getting when Henry Cavill's Clark Kent returns to the big screen and based on the extensive coverage centered around the new Caped Crusader, played by Ben Affleck (Good Will Hunting), most should also have a pretty good idea about what kind of Bruce Wayne we'll see come March. But what about the eagerly anticipated debut of Wonder Woman, portrayed by Gal Gadot (Knight and Day; Fast Five)? Well, for now, the jury's still out on that one, but if the trailer is anything to go by, it sure seems like no matter the characterization, she'll at least kick a ton of ass.
In a recent interview with YNET, an Israeli news site, while promoting his latest release The Man From U.N.C.L.E., star Henry Cavill (Immortals) took a moment to share his thoughts on Gadot's portrayal of the Amazonian goddess.
Check out his comments below:
Interviewer: Henry, I know you don’t want to talk about Superman, so I’m not going to talk about that. Wonder Woman.
Henry Cavill: Wonder Woman?
Interviewer: Gal Gadot.
Armie Hammer: Are you going to play Wonder Woman?
Cavill: Well you see they offered me the role and I was like– ‘Hmm, you know what, I think Gal did a great job so…’
Armie: You would had filled out that skirt well.
Cavill: It’s a dream of mine.
Interviewer: She’s Israeli, we are rooting for her. How was it, how was she?
Cavill: Absolutely fantastic, yeah she’s really cool, she makes a really cool Wonder Woman.
Sounds like Cavill has given Gadot's Wonder Woman his seal of approval, which really isn't all too surprising, but it should be somewhat reassuring to fans that can't wait for the upcoming Zack Snyder-directed film. What do you guys think? Sound off with your thoughts below!
