The whole "Fake Wonder Woman" thing led to some confusion about Gal Gadot's involvement with Shazam! Fury of the Gods, with some people seemingly under the impression that a "deepfake" was used for Diana's cameo appearance towards the end of the movie.
Director David F. Sandberg has now made it very clear that Gadot was on set to film her scene - even if he wasn't!
Sandberg wasn't able to make it to England because of a Visa issue, so helmed the sequence remotely. You can check out some behind-the-scenes footage of him working from monitors below.
"I was surprised how well it went directing remotely," he added, "but when I told (wife and collaborator) Lotta Losten about it she said 'just don’t think you can direct everything this way now.' I would never though. I love being on set. And you can’t be a unicorn eyeline if you’re not on set."
Fury of the Gods hasn't been performing as well as expected (to say the least) at the box office, so a third movie seems highly unlikely. Even if James Gunn and Peter Safran do decide to keep the franchise going, Sandberg has already stated that he plans to take a "break from superheroes."
