Transcript

00:00 Hey everyone, I'm Gal Gadot and I'm going undercover on the internet.

00:04 It's actually me.

00:06 How do you say "quora"?

00:11 Yeah, that's right.

00:13 Who wins a fight, Gal Gadot or Chris Hemsworth?

00:17 What's with this question?

00:19 Everyone is asking me who would win a fight, me or Chris.

00:23 I will be a smartass and I'll say,

00:26 "Chris and I are not going to fight each other,

00:28 we're going to fight together."

00:30 Against evil.

00:31 Posted.

00:34 I weigh 67 kilos, can Gal Gadot carry me?

00:38 Maybe.

00:41 I don't know, I might.

00:43 Could Gal Gadot be in UFC?

00:46 I mean, let's let the professionals do their thing.

00:50 I will sit from the front row and cheer.

00:53 Posted.

00:55 Let it rip.

00:57 Next one.

00:58 How the heck is she alive?

01:01 Didn't she get sliced and diced by the propeller blades?

01:04 Oh my God.

01:05 Did you see a body?

01:07 I didn't see a body. Did you?

01:09 Let's see some YouTube comments.

01:13 I think she could be the next agent 007, why not?

01:19 That's very nice of you to say.

01:21 Thank you.

01:23 I'm such a big fan of these reactions.

01:25 I'm such a big fan of these genres.

01:27 I grew up watching Bond and Mission and Die Hard and Born Identity

01:32 and the little girl in me always wanted to play one.

01:35 And I think that after the success of Wonder Woman

01:38 was when I realized, "Wait a second,

01:39 there's audience for this when it's female-led.

01:43 There's more space for female-led movies within the genre."

01:46 And that's kind of what gave Yaron and I, my husband, who's my partner,

01:50 the boost of confidence to go ahead and develop one ourselves.

01:55 The action, the twists and turns, the scope, the drama.

01:59 I love everything about these movies and I'm so happy

02:03 that soon we can share Heart of Stone with you.

02:07 Dang, how many languages she can speak.

02:10 Not many, just two, Hebrew and English.

02:13 Enough.

02:14 Twitter.

02:16 [music playing]

02:21 Favorite memory filming with Patti?

02:23 I love Patti so much.

02:24 She's one of my closest friends.

02:26 Our family are so close.

02:28 We were so lucky that this movie brought us together.

02:31 Patti and I, if there's something that we always do together, is laugh.

02:35 There's not just one standout favorite memory.

02:39 Our entire relationship, I feel like we've had so many different things

02:44 that happened to us and that we've been together and we went...

02:47 It's just, we have this connection that is very deep.

02:51 The bond is real.

02:52 And I'll do anything with Patti. She's incredible.

02:55 [typing]

02:57 Gal Gadot is going to be in the live-action Snow White.

03:01 That is correct.

03:03 So yes, I'm gonna play the evil queen.

03:05 It was the first time I had to kind of audition for a project in a while.

03:10 They needed to make sure I can sing because this is a musical.

03:13 So for a month, I was working on the song and then I auditioned

03:17 and we filmed the song and I got the part.

03:21 And it was very exciting.

03:22 And it was so much to shoot

03:24 because it's so different than anything I've ever done.

03:27 It's so delicious and delightful

03:29 and I could really go big and theatrical.

03:32 I can't wait for you to watch this movie.

03:34 My favorite Disney movie, I'm shy to say, was Winnie the Pooh.

03:39 Winnie the Pooh was my go-to.

03:41 I know, I know, it's very for little kids,

03:43 but it's just so peaceful and always came me down.

03:47 Gal, mom of three, please send your best working mom hacks.

03:53 Hi.

03:54 First of all, if you're a mom, a working mom as well,

03:57 I just want to tell you, you're not alone.

03:59 We all have the guilt and the frustration that we feel from time to time.

04:04 When we're with the kids,

04:05 we need to make sure we finish everything at work.

04:08 When we're at work, we're thinking about the kids.

04:10 It's like an inevitable war.

04:12 What helped me, once I read a book,

04:14 and it says you can only do your best when you're with the kids.

04:18 Be present, put the phone away and be with the kids.

04:21 When you're at work, put the phone away,

04:23 be at work and do what you need to do.

04:26 And love yourself. It's okay to work.

04:28 You're giving your kids a good modeling

04:31 on how to fulfill themselves and all of that.

04:34 So just take it easy on you.

04:35 That's my biggest tip.

04:39 Instagram.

04:40 Hey, Gal, I love you. Listen, what's next for you?

04:47 Also, what kind of music do you like? Do you dance?

04:49 I love dancing.

04:51 I love music. I listen to everything.

04:54 Lately, my go-to would be to go on Spotify if you do Polo and Pan.

05:00 I really like them. They put you in a good vibe.

05:03 I also love, if you want to dance,

05:06 I also love Noga Erez, who we also brought for Heart of Stone

05:10 to create the theme song for the movie.

05:12 And I fell in love with her work when I listened to The End of the Road.

05:17 So check that out, too. That's a good one for dancing.

05:20 Next, Wikipedia.

05:22 Her first jobs were working at a local Burger King

05:28 as well as babysitting.

05:30 This is correct.

05:32 And I still remember the flavor of the delicious garlic Whopper.

05:36 Garlic Whopper is the shit.

05:38 Alongside with mac and cheese, Goodles.

05:41 I'm hungry, as you can see.

05:44 Next one.

05:45 That is correct.

05:51 I studied law and I studied international relationship

05:56 and I wanted to be...

05:58 I guess I watched too many episodes of Ali Macbiel.

06:03 And, you know, in Israel, it's either you become a doctor,

06:06 an engineer or a lawyer.

06:09 So I went for the style.

06:12 OK, that's it. I'm signing off the internet.

06:17 (THUD)
