Impressive: The ex-Miss. Israel truly embodied the role for the most recent addition to the superhero movie series, taking place in the vibrant eighties era.
Upcoming: The recent sighting of the actress comes following the announcement that she will be portraying the late Hedy Lamarr in a limited series on Showtime exploring the life and achievements of the iconic Hollywood star. Lamarr, who was a prominent figure in the film industry from the 1930s to the 1950s, delivered unforgettable performances in movies such as “Samson and Delilah” (1949), “Come Live With Me” (1941), and “The Strange Woman” (1946).
Beyond her successful career in acting, Lamarr also left her mark as an inventor, designing various inventions, including a groundbreaking device that disrupted torpedo control systems via radio signals during World War II, aiding the Allied Powers in their battle against the enemy.
Lamarr’s incredible journey was documented in the 2017 PBS film, “Bombshell: The Hedy Lamarr Story,” produced by Susan Sarandon. In this captivating documentary, Lamarr’s own voice is heard expressing her frustration with being underestimated: “People have the idea that I’m sort of a stupid thing. I was different, I guess. Maybe I came from a different planet, who knows? But whatever it is, inventions are easy for me to do.”
Lamarr passed away at the age of 86 on January 19, 2000, leaving behind a legacy of both artistic brilliance and scientific innovation.

Joining her as executive producers are Gadot’s husband, Jaron Varsano, and Warren Littlefield, a seasoned show business executive and former president of NBC. Littlefield has an impeccable track record, having executive produced acclaimed series like Fargo and The Handmaid’s Tale.
Hailing from Petah Tikva, Israel, Gadot’s star has risen dramatically in recent years. She first gained attention for her portrayal of Wonder Woman in 2016’s Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. Her own standalone Wonder Woman film was a massive success, earning an astounding $820 million worldwide at the box office last year.
