Gal Gadot will be the new Wonder Woman! I repeat: Gal Gadot will be the new Wonder Woman!

As our good Arty Semite friends just pointed out, the Israeli actress and model known for her role alongside Paul Walker (RIP) in “Fast and the Furious” series has just been cast as crime-fighting’s most badass lady in “Batman vs. Superman.”

Why is Gadot the perfect choice? The former Miss Universe contestant served in the Israeli army while working as a model.

Just had to join in on the excitement.

Anne Cohen was the Forward’s deputy digital media editor. When she’s not looking for the secret Jewish history of Voodoo in New Orleans, or making lists about Ruth Bader Ginsburg, she writes for The Assimilator. She graduated from the Columbia Graduate School of Journalism with an M.S. magazine concentration in 2012.
