"I grew up being a dancer. So learning how to do the action – it's like a dance. It's choreography, they call it action choreography. I love it," she explained.
"You play with your body, you play with your brain. I really enjoy this part. It takes a village and a lot of professionals to shoot action, and to do it in the biggest, edgiest way."

"I was always wondering if there's room for something like that, but female driven. And I think that I got my confidence only after Wonder Woman came out and became this huge success."

"I'm not the type of person who likes to sit and wait for the next offer. Heart of Stone was one of the very first ideas that we had.
"I realized that we always feel like female protagonists are more for female audiences. With Wonder Woman, we really managed to prove that as long as the story is universal, it's good."
Gal added: "Usually, as an actor, you get the script, and you can discuss the script with your filmmaker, but that's kind of it. In a way, it's super easy; you don't have to worry about anything. But there's something so stimulating and exciting in creating something from scratch."
