'Wonder Woman' became a turning point in Gal Gadot's acting career. The whole world knows that the actress shot for the movie while being pregnant with her second child.

During in an interview with Rolling Stone magazine, the 32-year-old actress joked about the difficulties she faced when filming action scene re-shoots for the superhero movie while being pregnant.

The 'Keeping up with the Joneses' star shared, "We cut open the costume and had this green screen on my stomach. It was funny as hell - Wonder Woman with a bump."

Adding, "I didn't want attention. The default should be that women get the job done, but there's a long way to go and a lot of reprogramming that needs to be done to both genders."

 

Gadot gave birth to a daughter, Maya, with her husband Yaron Versano in March. Maya joined the couple's five-year-old daughter Alma in the now-family of four.

She also revealed that she was a tomboy growing up in Israel and often got scraped up as she played hard.

"There was no TV-watching. It was always, Take a ball and go play, 'In general, I was a good girl, a good student, a pleaser, and I was a tomboy. Always with wounds and scratches on my knees."

Gadot also ensured fans that Whedon's involvement would completely alter the original film, explaining, "Look. Joss, to my understanding, was Zack's choice to finish the movie. And the tone can't be completely different because the movie was already shot. Joss is just fine-tuning."

Gal Gadot will be seen reprising the role of 'Wonder Woman' in 'Justice League' which will hit theatres on November 17.
