The last TV series about the Amazonian woman in the famously red, blue and golden costume carrying a whip starred Lynda Carter ended in 1979. Wonder Woman was never seen or mentioned anywhere on the screen ever since. Until 2016.
Gal Gadot got the role and really stole the show during the movie. But who is Gal Gadot anyway? You might want to know more about her and heres some fact we got about her:
