Wonder Woman has been cast for Zack Snyder's Batman Vs. Superman and it's...Gal Gadot! Wait, wtf, who? You know, Gal Gadot, the girl in those Fast and Furious movies. More puzzling than Ben Affleck being cast as Batman, this relative unknown is causing an uproar on Twitter, with fans protesting the news. Sure, she misspelled Wonder Woman in her tweet, but let's chock it up to her being so excited about the news. After all, she deserves a break. The actress hasn't even shown what she's got yet, let alone shown who she is very much at all. And who is that exactly? Well find out below.

The basics: She's 28. She was born and raised in Rosh HaAyin, Israel.

She's got model face. The kind pretty enough to be Miss Israel in the 2004 Miss Universe pageant.

And with model face comes "hot" roles, like Mark Wahlberg's girlfriend in Date Night

But she's got priorities, like her husband, Israeli businessman Yaron Versano, and her kid...

...and street cred. For example, she was a sports trainer in the Israel Defense Forces.

But she continued capitalizing on model face, as one would, with Maxim's 2007 photo spread "Women of the Israeli army."

But back to her street cred. She's serious about motorcycles. If it means anything to you, she owns a black 2006 Ducati Monster-S2R. Sounds serious.

And if you're still questioning her capability as Wonder Woman, she did most of her own stunts in Fast and Furious.

So no, she wouldn't snap in half if you were to lean on her.
