WOMAN
Gal Gadot stars in the title role of
“Wonder Woman,” an epic action
adventure from director Patty Jen-
kins (“Monster,” AMC’s “The Killing”)
marking the DC Super Hero’s first-
ever stand alone feature film.
Before she was Wonder Woman,
she was Diana, princess of the
Amazons, raised on a sheltered is-
land paradise and trained to be an
unconquerable warrior. But when
an American pilot crashes off their
shores and tells of a massive con-
flict raging in the outside world, Di-
ana leaves her home, convinced
she can stop the threat. Fighting
alongside men in the war to end
all wars, Diana will discover her full
powers... and her true destiny.
Joining Gadot in the internation-
al cast are Chris Pine (the “Star
Trek” films), Robin Wright (“The
Girl with the Dragon Tattoo,” Netf-
lix’s “House of Cards”), Danny Hus-
ton (“Clash of the Titans,” “X-Men
Origins: Wolverine”), David Thewlis
(the “Harry Potter” films, “The The-
ory of Everything”), Connie Nielsen
(TV’s “The Following,” “Gladiator”),
Elena Anaya (“The Skin I Live In”),
Ewen Bremner (“T2 Trainspotting,”
“Snowpiercer”), Lucy Davis (“Shaun
of the Dead,” TV’s “Better Things”),
Lisa Loven Kongsli (upcoming “Ash-
es in the Snow”), Saïd Taghmaoui
(“American Hustle”) and Eugene
Brave Rock (TV’s “Hell on Wheels”).
Patty Jenkins directed the film from
a screenplay by Allan Heinberg, sto-
ry by Zack Snyder & Allan Heinberg
and Jason Fuchs, based on charac-
ters from DC. Wonder Woman was
created by William Moulton Marston.
