Gal Gadot Declines Wonder Woman 3 Return

Gal Gadot has expressed that she would likely not return to play Wonder Woman again, citing personal life changes. She explained on the "Happy Sad Confused" podcast that with four children, the extended time away required for filming a third installment is no longer compatible with her current life.

Gadot, who debuted as the iconic superhero in 2016, has since starred in two standalone films and "Justice League." While a third movie was once considered, new leadership at DC Studios ultimately moved away from the previous iteration.

Separately, Gadot discussed her involvement in the upcoming film "Bitcoin," directed by Doug Liman. She revealed the production's extensive use of AI for sets and lighting, noting that her lawyers spent six months reviewing the AI components. Gadot emphasized that she ensured her own performance was protected from AI influence, even consulting with SAG on contract updates.

She acknowledged her fear of AI but stressed the importance of engaging with and understanding the technology, stating that one must adapt to remain relevant in the industry. Gadot described the filming experience for "Bitcoin" as unique, comparing it to theater due to the minimalist set and constant shooting without waiting for lighting changes.
