Gal Gadot Criticizes DC Studios For How It Handled Wonder Woman, Henry Cavill’s Superman

Gal Gadot is criticizing DC’s handling of its superhero talent from when the company transitioned away from its Zack Snyder-led era.

The actress told the Happy, Sad Confused podcast that the shift from the Snyder-verse to the current creative era — run by co-chairmen and CEOs James Gunn and Peter Safran — was “not handled elegantly, to say the least.”

First, Gadot was asked if there was a moment where she was told by Gunn and Safran that she would no longer play Wonder Woman.

“No, they told me the opposite,” Gadot said. “They were like, ‘We’re going to develop it with you, the third one.’ But I saw the way everybody else was handled, right? And I, you know — the Henry situation was unfortunate. I was in the middle of that. The Henry situation was not handled elegantly, to say the least.”
