Gal Gadot as Nebula?

The actress said in the interview that being an actress means having a complicated life since you never know which role you will end up playing. She admitted to being grateful for whichever role she is offered and tries to enjoy the part. Talking about big productions and opportunities, Gal Gadot confessed to being offered a role where she would have to shave her head and colored in blue paint. 

Gal Gadot in Wonder Woman was a treat for all the DC fans and she is undoubtedly the best choice for the role as she was cast by Zack Snyder in Batman v Superman: Dawn Of Justice. The description given by Gal Godot of the role she was offered was awfully similar to the role of Nebula in Guardians of the Galaxy which was played by Karen Gillan. Fans could not help but wonder how different it would be if it was not Gal Gadot in Wonder Woman
