Gal Gadot, the Israeli actress and model who will play Wonder Woman in the hotly anticipated 2015 Batman Versus Superman flick, has joined the social media hordes and taken on the ice bucket challenge.
The former Miss Israel, who was born in Rosh Ha’ayin and first gained fame in the “Fast and Furious” films, posted her ice-dousing experience on her Instagram feed and wrote that in addition to having the cold bucket dumped her head, she is also donating to ALS research.
She nominated director Zack Snyder, actress Kate Winslet, the original Wonder Woman Lynda Carter, and her own husband, businessman Yaron Varsano.
She then covered her face with her hands, appeared to say a tiny prayer, and then was doused with a massive cold bucket of ice and water by someone offscreen.

Help us report truthfully on social media
As a multimedia journalist, my job is to take the quality, fact-based journalism produced by The Times of Israel newsroom and make it accessible across every platform — from Instagram posts to podcasts to short-form videos.
This is how many, especially young people, consume news these days. But misinformation is rampant on social media. Our team at ToI produces accurate, responsible short-form reporting on Israel and the Jewish world.
If you believe in the importance of factual social media journalism, please consider joining our reader support group, The Times of Israel Community. Your financial support is essential to sustain responsible multimedia reporting.
