So Wonder Woman is Jewish?


Funny, she doesn't look Jewish.

Gal Gadot is Jewish, Diana (Wonder Woman) is not. Do I need to provide the definitions for "actors" and "roles"?

reply

it's not easy to "spot a jew".

There are different jews: Middle-eastern, European, Ethiopian, Mixed etc..

That's why I was surprised to see the comment "she doesn't look jewish", how would you describe a jew?

She can pass for almost anything really.

Oh no they cast a Jewish lady as WW. My life is ruined.

No. Diana was the daughter of a Greek God and the Queen of the Amazons. Chances are, she was a pagan that worshiped Athena or Artemis, whichever goddess suited the Amazons the most in their religion.

The actress is probably Jewish, considering most Israelis are, but remember that actors are not their characters. Far too many people keep construing them as one and the same.
