Israeli actress Gal Gadot on Tuesday revealed she will soon appear in the hit animated television show “The Simpsons,” as herself.
The star, whose swashbuckling depiction of warrior heroine “Wonder Woman” made her a household name, has since hosted episodes of comedy show “Saturday Night Live.”
In a post to her Twitter feed, she told fans of her next appearance.
“I grew up watching the Simpsons and now I get to voice myself in an episode,” she wrote. “Stay tuned.”
The tweet included a short video of Gadot signing a poster covered in Simpsons characters.
