"It was the first time for me — as a woman, a girl, a female — that I saw an image of strong women that are beautiful and confident and can take care of themselves. I was shocked by it, and then I was more shocked by the fact that I never saw anything like that," Gadot shared in a recent interview with Kumail Nanjiani on Variety's "Actors on Actors" series.
Meanwhile, in the same interview, Gadot also expressed her thoughts on the sexual harassment controversies in Hollywood that have been recently exposed. For Gadot, while women have the capabilities to avert any form of sexual harassment or abuse as they are empowered, they can fail in doing so if they don't acknowledge that they have the power within.
"But there cannot be women empowerment if women don't have this visual in their subconsciousness, and if men don't have it either. It's important for boys and men to see that a woman can be super great," Gadot opined.
Gadot can be seen as Diana/Wonder Woman once more in the currently showing "Justice League" and is slated to reprise the role for "Wonder Woman 2," which is slated for a Nov. 1, 2019 release.
