"Wonder Woman" star Gal Gadot is set to play a real-life hero in a new movie she is also producing.
The Israeli actress made the announcement Friday in a post on social media, saying she is "excited" to start a production company, Pilot Wave, with her husband, Yaron Varsano, and star in their first film "Irena Sendler," about a Polish nurse who ran an underground operation smuggling thousands of children out of the Warsaw Ghetto during the Holocaust.
“As producers, we want to help bring stories that have inspired us to life," Gadot told Deadline. "Pilot Wave will create content that promotes the perspectives and experiences of unique people and produce impactful stories aimed at igniting the imagination.”

Portraying a “Wonder Woman”* from real life too. *
bttt
Look forward to seeing this!!
What’s the Hellywood take going to be ?
Maybe it will be made in Tel Aviv.
she is a transgender plumber...
A Real Wonder Woman!
Wonderful!
I still want to know where she hides her sword and shield?
First its there...then its gone...then its back.
Sill I really liked her in “Wonder Woman”
Irene Sendler’s story is amazing. She smuggled thousands of children out of the ghetto. She trained her dogs to bark whenever German soldiers would come near to cover the sound of crying children.
I would marry her to get her US citizenship any day.
Then dump her off as she is way out of my league. :-)
Didn’t Al Gore get picked for the Noble Prize over her?
Yes... anything you want dear...
Not guilty!
Hoolyweird had to cast a beautiful looking woman to play this part. Really?
It’s like the music industry, there are hundreds of thousands of exceptional musicians but if you’re not good-looking enough the empty suits at the five major corporations that have a stranglehold on the music industry will pick looks over substance everytime.
Finally, a worthwhile film project. Can’t wait to see it!
After the war, she made sure each and every one of those children were returned to their parents (if alive), or other family members, or were placed with Jewish adoptive families if their natural families could not be located.
She kept her solemn promise to their parents to keep them alive AND maintain their Jewish identity.
Also, the Communists harassed her constantly in Post-War Poland.
In 1968, there was a purge of Jews in the country, and Irena told the authorities that she would do the same thing that she did during the War.
