It is official that Gal Galdot and Wonder Woman’s director Patty Jenkins will reunite for a Cleopatra biopic. In the historical drama, the 35-year-old actress from Israel will become the legendary Egyptian queen. The movie is developed by Paramount Pictures.
Gal Gadot will be the next actress to star Cleopatra, after Vivien Leigh, Claudette Colbert, and Elizabeth Taylor.
The director of this upcoming project is Patty Jenkins who is known for Monster, the Academy-Award winning film, and the Wonder Woman series.
Recently, Gal Gadot posted on her official Twitter account to announce the upcoming movie.
While the actress has received praise for her Wonder Woman portrayal, the news of her being the next Cleopatra has been a controversial topic because of issues related to ethnicity and race.
Cleopatra is the daughter of Ptolemy who is the ancestor of Alexander the Great.
She has relationships with Julius Caesar and Mark Antony. Over time, she has become an icon that has been portrayed in various mediums like cinema, literature, and art.
According to Deadline’s exclusive report, Laeta Kalogridis from Shutter Island and Pathfinder will be in charge of the script.
While Gadot is one of the most popular actresses, her role as the next Cleopatra hasn’t convinced the online community. A certain section believes that she is not the right choice.
However, another section believed she was the right fit for the role and said they would support her project.
