Gal Gadot Birthday Special: Before Turning Wonder Woman For DCEU, She Almost Joined Marvel’s Superheroes!

Today Wonder Woman Gal Gadot turns a year older. The Israelis native is a superhero on-screen and off-screen – she played the Amazon princess while pregnant with her second child. But did you know this DCEU actress could have very well been an MCU superhero before even landing the warrior princess role? And the Marvel character she could have played is still alive.

Wondering what we are talking about? Well, celebrating the Justice League actress’ birthday, we decided to bring you some unknown trivia about her and this is one we came across. In a past interview, the actress revealed she was once given the opportunity to play a blue character that required her to shave her head bald. Ring any bells? The only character that fits this description is that of MCU’s Nebula aka Thanos’ adoptive daughter, and Gamora’s sister.

In a May 2013 interview conducted by Reshet. tv, Gal Gadot spoke about a role where she would be required to shave my head and be covered in blue paint. While describing her life as an actress, she told the channel in Hebrew, “It’s a very complicated life, because you live from role to role, and you never know when your next role will be. So when you work, me at least, I am the most grateful, and the most, you know, enjoying it, because it’s not obvious.”
