(Rolling Stone) Gal Gadot interviewed by Alex Morris - Gal Gadot is ostensibly here to talk about her rise to become an iconic, worldwide symbol of all that is good and powerful as the film incarnation of Wonder Woman. But it's hard not to see elements of the superheroic in the way she just is. Gadot's mother's father was 13 when the Nazis came to his native Czechoslovakia. His mother and brother died in the gas chambers at Auschwitz. After the war, he made his way to Israel alone. "His entire family was murdered - it's unthinkable," says Gadot. "He affected me a lot. After all the horrors he'd seen, he was like this damaged bird, but he was always hopeful and positive and full of love. If I was raised in a place where these values were not so strong, things would be different. But it was very easy for me to relate to everything that Wonder Woman stands for."
