‘Wonder Woman’ rakes in $500m, Gal Gadot just $300,000
Israeli newspapers are returning today to the question of Gal Gadot’s salary in the widely praised blockbuster superhero film “Wonder Woman.”
The film earned some $500 million in its first month. But the salary of Israeli actress Gal Gadot, who plays the titular character, was just $300,000.
Gadot signed a three-movie contract totaling $900,000 — for last year’s “Batman vs. Superman,” “Wonder Woman” and “Justice League” slated for release in November.
The figure highlights the wage disparity in Hollywood between male and female actors, critics say.
