Gal Gadot and Joss Whedon clashed over Wonder Woman in Justice League
After Joss Whedon was brought in for reshoots and additional photography to complete “Justice League,” there was plenty of behind-the-scenes drama as production resumed. While original filmmaker Zack Snyder envisioned a darker, more serious film, Whedon injected more humor and aimed for a lighter tone. One gag Whedon planned for “Justice League” involved Wonder Woman, but it got understandable pushback from Gal Gadot. Whedon wanted a scene where the Flash accidentally falls face-first into Wonder Woman’s cleavage.
Gadot objected to filming the scene, with Whedon reportedly threatening her career if she didn’t comply with his changes to the movie. The scene was ultimately kept in, though a body double was used for Gadot for the sequence. After the release of “Justice League,” Gadot confirmed she had an issue with Whedon and took the matter to the studio for resolution. Whedon claimed that the disagreement stemmed from Gadot having difficulty understanding English, a claim that was firmly debunked by Gadot. In trying to make a lighter “Justice League,” the cast had a decidedly more contentious experience.
