Gal Gadot shares new Wonder Woman image from 'Justice League' in honor of Zack Snyder's birthday

Today is Justice League director Zack Snyder's 51st birthday. He already showed us that he's working hard on his special day when he tweeted out new footage of Aquaman earlier, and now Wonder Woman herself Gal Gadot has shared something new in his honor.

"A very happy birthday #zacksnyder!," Gadot wrote on Facebook. "This photo expresses how focused and centered we were on JL but doesn't show all the good laughs and great fun we had!!! I wish you the best of luck,health and happiness. You are such a special talented man with such a unique cinematic vision. I'm happy I got to know and work with you! Happiest bday to you !!!"

Zack Snyder is as good a filmmaker as Gal Gadot's an actress

Considering the films she's been in, she hasn't had much to work with. Zack is terrible tho.

Ready to fight on the Flying Fox? I have a DREAM. I dream that the biggest action piece OF the movie is the Flying Fox being attacked by Steppenwolf and the parademons and the league fighting them in and out of it. Just pictures a live action version of the Crisis on Two Earths air battle.

Her comment does seem to send the message that Zack is definitely done with the DCEU after JL. Or maybe I'm reading too much into it.

  Maybe it'll depend on how JL does. He could come back for JL2, I'm sure that's still up in the air.

Faora...
If Man of Steel 2 is indeed being made, she has to be in it. Hopefully the actress didn't quit acting.
1. Mario
  March 2, 2017
  I would love her to come back, but i think Faora is quite dead after getting sucked by the black hole.
  1. MisFit 138
    March 2, 2017
    Pretty sure it was a worm hole, not a black hole. Major difference
    1. Mario
      March 2, 2017
      Ok then, a worm hole into the phantom zone, without the safety of being inside the ship because it got destroyed in the suction, it shouldn’t change the outcome, all of them are dead.
      But after all, its movies we are talking about, there’s always a way.
    2. MisFit 138
      March 2, 2017
      Exactly, anything is possible is fiction. Also, she was exposed to yellow sunlight and though the movie is pretty unclear about the effects of atmosphere or lack of atmosphere vs yellow or red sunlight, theres definitly wiggle room for a survival story. I just really want to see her and WW fight lol
2. Jamyskis
  March 2, 2017
  Antje Traue hasn't quit acting, but she's not doing a great deal in Hollywood nowadays. Most of what she does nowadays is German-language productions here in Germany along with a small number of British productions.
3. MisFit 138
  March 2, 2017
  I've been hoping that she is revealed to be one of Darkseid's Furies, I dont think it would be too contrived that Apokolips would have access to the phantom zone. Would kill to see Wonder Woman v Faora in one of these movies.
4. Diego!
  March 2, 2017
  Why would she quit acting? She is a german actress with an impressive resume. She speaks german and russian as native tongue and English as well.
  Google Antje Traue.
  1. Halberdier17
    March 2, 2017
    She was going to quit acting if she didn't get a good role by he age of 30. She got the role of Faora when she was 29 so she didn't quit. It saved her career.
    Also Batmario she is still alive just in the Phantom Zone along with all the other people that got sucked into the Phantom Zone; she can come back in Man of Steel 2 if they want her back.
    1. Mario
      March 2, 2017
      I imagine it could be like a crio-state the phantom zone, it would be really silly if they're just floating there in nothing, looking at each other :p, the more i think about it, the more i like it, but she has no plot point to come back, i mean, in Man of steel 2, we should all want a new villain right? maybe Brainiac?, how could she fit in?
    2. Schuyler Finley
      March 2, 2017
      Zod did say that the Phantom Zone is worse than death.
  2. Ezee23
    March 2, 2017
    Because the last thing I heard about her was that she was about to quit acting.
The Enigma
March 3, 2017
Love that scene with Faora when she gets off the ship to see Lois first time. Even as an alien is she is still such a woman...the way she looks Lois up and down to size her up...such a girl thing to do to another woman like saying "you ain't all that".

Imagine the insane task the next person to take on the Justice League will have in however many decades/years to redesign these characters. The first time they've ever been translated to the big screen, they did such a good job!

neodymium
March 3, 2017
i was just thinking about that. Whoever is the next person to take on the Justice League in a new continuum will certainly have their work cut out for them. Cause Zack and Wilkinson KILLED IT. These are like the epitome of DC costumes

March 2, 2017

Maybe she's standing on a platform or it's angle of the photo... but Gal seems, to me at least, to be bigger and taller than all the men in this photo.

She looks awesome though. About as perfect an image of Wonder Woman as you'll ever see.

Mario
March 2, 2017
She's very tall, and the Wonder Woman boots have heels, she's tall as Henry and Ben in the suit.
And yes, she owns the character.
1. CrackerJackie
  March 2, 2017
  Don't let some around here see you call them heels! Holy smokes! I was schooled that they're wedges, NOT HEELS, and they're totally practical for running, punching, kicking bad dudes' butts. Again, NOT HEELS! Heels would be impractical. (FWIW, the heel is elevated, making them heels in my book.)
Sense
March 2, 2017
She's bigger than most guys.

Zack is a genius. His DC films are like art and leave Marvel films in the dust!

Godspeed
March 2, 2017
LMAO yeah sure DC movies are "artworks" and Marvel movies are just dumb films that are nowhere near as popular, well crafted or successful as DCs absolute masterpieces like Man of Steel or BvS.
Lol in what reality are you living in ? wow DC fanboys nowadays really are delusional as fuck. I mean like really ?
You want a superhero movie that is true art that transcends the genre itself. I have one word for you, Bub: LOGAN. 93 % at rottentomatoes. celebrated as one of the deepest and most profound superherofilms ever made. Lets see Zack Snyder making a movie like THAT and then we´re talking. Until then stay off the drugs.
1. Schuyler Finley
  March 2, 2017
  Have you seen Logan?
2. Shane
  March 2, 2017
  First it was critics don't like "smart sophisticated movies" but Inception, Interstellar and The Presitge completely destroys that shitty argument then it became well "critics don't like dark comic book movies". Okay then what is Logan's excuse in this "lighthearted marvel dominated" market?
  1. FUN
    March 2, 2017
    The excuse = FOX, not Disney.

  o·pin·ion
  /əˈpinyən/
  noun
  a view or judgment formed about something, not necessarily based on fact or knowledge.
  Having an opinion or being a fan of a certain thing (in this case DC movies) doesn't make anyone with an opposite opinion (like you) wrong. And the opposite is true. You don't agree with him. That doesn't make him wrong. In his opinion, he likes the DC movies better. You don't have to get butthurt about it just because you disagree. The same goes for anyone getting butthurt about you having the opposite opinion. Just agree to disagree and it'll make life so much easier, I promise.

  Go post your zealot marvel propaganda on Iron Man News. None of that gibberish on this page. This for DC fans, not DC haters. Get lost, mickey! And take your wanna be DC movie, Logan with you.

March 2, 2017
Just because you say it, it doesn't make true.
1. Carver
  March 2, 2017
  Just because you disagree with it, it doesn't make it false. It's an opinion. He's allowed to have it.
  1. Shane
    March 2, 2017
    Funny how that is always a one sided thing. Say crap like this on every article involving Snyder and it's your opinion, criticize him and you are a troll/hater.
    1. Carver
      March 2, 2017
      Did I call you a troll or a hater? You expressed your opinion and you have every right to have it. But I think was unnecessary to shut him out for having HIS opinion. If you're going to disagree, there are better ways of expressing it than "You're wrong". And that goes for both sides.

Reports from the test screening for WW says that Gadot's performance is definitely the weakest out of everyone so that is definitely going to hurt the film. She was purely chosen for her looks, plain and simple, her acting ability was never taken into consideration.

Look at all her previous roles, she is the EXACT same in all of them. Making a fierce face which pretty much ANYONE can do doesn't make you an amazing Wonder Woman. She is equivalent to Megan Fox

Now cue the fanboy attack.

Schuyler Finley
March 2, 2017
Why, because Pine stole every scene?
1. Shane
  March 2, 2017
  Not just Pine, even that fat chick reportedly has a better performance than her.
  1. TØM
    March 2, 2017
    First of all, referring to a woman as a "fat chick" is rude, disrespectful and immature.
    Second of all I don't see how you can compare somebody who is essentially comic relief, to somebody who's playing an Amazonian Princess/Warrior from a secluded island.
    1. Shane
      March 2, 2017
      Oh boo hoo :(
      And just because she is suppose to be the comic relieve doesn't excuse Gadot's shitty performance nor does it make your performance automatically better.
      What kind of dumbass logic is that?
    2. TØM
      March 2, 2017
      You haven't even seen the movie so how can you call it a shitty performance? Bye child
      https://uploads.disquscdn.c...
    3. Schuyler Finley
      March 2, 2017
      Hell, from what I've seen, no one's talking bad about her performance. It's just comparing the film to the animated films.
    4. Shane
      March 2, 2017
      Her performance has remained the same since Fast Five, and even in the the trailers it's the same wooden performance and her execution of lines is just off.
    5. Schuyler Finley
      March 2, 2017
      "Test screening reactions are positive"
      Doubters: Yeah, and so were the reactions for BvS and SS.
      "Reactions say that Pine steals every scene"
      Doubters: I believe that!! Gadot was a horrible choice!! #DCEUReboot
    6. Shane
      March 2, 2017
      Yeah an internet filled with millions of people and one represents all.
    7. Schuyler Finley
      March 2, 2017
      You're not the only one who's saying this.
    8. Shane
      March 2, 2017
      Gadot is front and centre so if supporting characters does a better job and they constantly overshadow her then yeah she wasn't a good fit for WW at all. It's a movie about her!
      I don't even get your first part, what does that even have to do with her mediocre performance in Hollywood so far?
    9. Schuyler Finley
      March 2, 2017
      Dude, this isn't new. Tons of films had supporting characters outshining the lead actor.
    10. Shane
      March 2, 2017
      Doesn't matter, it just shows that they didn't give a damn who they got, as long as she was pretty, she was perfect.
    11. Schuyler Finley
      March 2, 2017
      Yeah, which is why even people who hated BvS said that she was one of the few good things in it. She may not have the stellar acting chops, but she makes up for it in mannerisms.
    12. Shane
      March 2, 2017
      Her screen time was so little, her biggest scene she probably delivered 2 lines and still managed to disappoint with the way she expressed it. And compared that with the other messes, it was the better part
    13. FUN
      March 2, 2017
      Rather have that, than someone ugly who is good at acting. It's Wonderwoman, a comic book character for crying out loud.
    14. TØM
      March 2, 2017
      I must admit I'm not completely sold on her acting ability but unlike that asshole I'll wait until I see the movie and hope for the best rather than shit all over something I haven't seen.
      This could be the role she was born to play.
    15. Schuyler Finley
      March 2, 2017
      Same here. She did sound wooden a bit during her talk with Bruce at the dinner party, but I didn't find it bad. I hope to see that she's improved in this film.
    16. Shane
      March 2, 2017
      They don't just suddenly improve overnight... it literally takes years and tons of practise.
    17. Diego!
      March 2, 2017
      What? I think that was her best dialogue in the movie. Watch it again!
    18. Shane
      March 2, 2017
      She has shown no signs of improvement since her early days, why will it suddenly change now? So if you don't like her acting ability now you sure as hell won't after the movie.
  2. Schuyler Finley
    March 2, 2017
    I can see that since she's supposed to be the lovable comic relief. This isn't really new. Pine is most likely a better actor than Gadot.

      "Troll"
      The ultimate cop out word whenever someone can't bring anything worthwhile to the argument. It's like a liberal accusing you of being racist when you counter their argument or win.

March 2, 2017
dude, supporting actors stealing the show is something very, VERY common in movies, and that doesn't make a movie bad. Was it a problem that Ledger's Joker overshadowed the rest? Or Nicholson's?
And countless others that didn't hurt the movie, but even helped to make it better
1. Schuyler Finley
  March 2, 2017
  Or in Silence of the Lambs where Anthony Hopkins won an Oscar even though he only had less than 20 minutes of screentime.
  1. jrvc
    March 2, 2017
    17 to be exact. Brando in The Godfather was the same, he was very little in it to be even called main actor, but there you have it
    1. ginger gypo
      March 2, 2017
      It's one thing for a good leading actor to be upstaged by an even better, excellent award-winning performance. It's another to be upstaged simply because you suck
    2. Schuyler Finley
      March 2, 2017
      But we haven't seen the performance yet.
    3. jrvc
      March 2, 2017
      Well, with the career that woman has, I would really like to "suck" like her (and don't read with any sexual inuendos)
