Wonder Woman made star Gal Gadot want to continue pursuing action films.The actor spoke to Entertainment Weekly prior to the start of the SAG-AFTRA strike about her career as a female action star and superhero in which she stated her passion for action films while lamenting the lack of female protagonists in them. Gadot, who has played the Amazonian superhero in five separate films, said Wonder Woman presented a unique chance to tell a female-centric story in a massively popular genre, and its success spurred her to seek out more action film roles in the future. “So many male-led films were made brilliantly, and I just always felt like there’s room for more female-led films,” Gadot said. “Bond, Mission: Impossible, Bourne Identity, Die Hard — these movies I devour, and I always wanted to play one.”After Wonder Woman skyrocketed her into mainstream stardom, Gadot went on to star in films like Red Notice and most recently, Netflix’s upcoming thriller Heart of Stone, to which she credits her time in the DCEU for giving her the confidence to make it. Given Wonder Woman’s success at the box office, Gadot reportedly realized that female-led action films have a larger market outside of solely women, which empowered her to seek out broader roles that led to Heart of Stone’s development.Related: Wonder Woman’s Gal Gadot Reacts to the DCU’s Superman Casting
