So...the woman who plays such a powerfaul woman is tacitly saying she lacks the power to tell a pervert to eff off and leave her alone?

Right.

So...the woman who plays such a powerfaul woman is tacitly saying she lacks the power to tell a pervert to eff off and leave her alone?

She's saying she wants Ratner's involvement with the Wonder Woman franchise to end. She's forcing the studio to choose between her and Ratner, and she will win - no one is going to see a Wonder Woman movie to see Ratner's name in the credits. It'll cost Ratner the profits he would have seen in the next Wonder Woman movie. Seems clear enough, and entirely appropriate.

[Moorings]

Looks like there will be tryouts for another woman to play the part. The movie is fantasy, so they can always come up with a reason why wonder woman looks different.

The last wonder woman was one big femi-nazi progressive propaganda fest. Good grief, just make a good story and entertain us instead of shoving down your ideology and bile down our throats!

A month after canceling to appear at a dinner to honor Brett Ratner, Gal Gadot still has a lot to say about the famed director and the accusations mounting against him.

Have the accusations against him been proven true?

Not that I doubt it, but we do have this presumption of innocence until proven guilty that everyone is willing to ignore lately.

[ClearCase_guy]

She deserves respect. Soldier in the IDF, good actress, genuinely pleasant personality as far as I can tell, and taking a very meaningful stand against a Hollywood predator. Kudos!

Brett Ratner is the Great Value Director version of Spielberg anyway.

His non-union mexican equivalent if you will.

Rules

[Hildy]

As a woman, this whole thing just pisses me off. If a woman doesn’t know how to fend off advances from a man then she isn’t a woman. Laying hands on someone or exposing oneself is one thing.... making verbal advances is quite another. Women want to be equal.. but they only want it on their terms. I feel so sorry for young men.

[Mariner]

Well, she just killed Rattner’s chances of making money off the very hottest commodity in Hollywood today.

That’s pretty powerful given his position.

He’s dead Sam.

[Steely Tom]

[outofsalt]

He “outed” Ellen Page and she is po’d so maybe it’s that?

[lee martell]

Gal pays attention to the current Hollywood news.
She and other young women have been warned about Harvey.
No one from this point on can say they ‘didn’t know anything” about the allegations. Even if unproven, why not steer clear of that kind of person anyway.

Mel Gibson went through a long period like the one Harvey is about to enter. IMO, Mel had it easier, because he is a director and creates the product. Harvey, as producer simply funds or connects a good prospect.

[TomGuy]

Gadot needs to realize she isn’t the only actor around.

How many different actors, for example, have played Batman? Superman? Spiderman? and even Wonder Woman? etc.

Most studios (TV and Movie) have put up with many actors who find sudden stardom and think they have power to call the shots.

[Boomer]

I don’t know anything about this Ratner guy or what he has been accused of but as long as nothing has been proven then this entire thing is moot.

Fire the girl and get one willing to do the work. Her breasts are too small to play WW anyway. She will find work elsewhere maybe. I hear McDonalds is hiring all the time. Until this I thought she was cool and good for the part. No more.

The minute we start tossing people aside based on gossip is the minute we slide onto a slope we may not be able to climb off of.

[smokingfrog]

I’m just here for the pictures.

[HamiltonJay]

I don’t believe she had directly accused him of anything regarding his treatment of herself. She has simply said she won’t work with him again because he has been accused by others of bad behavior.

Folks really should Read the articles posted before commenting

[discostu]

No, she’s tacitly saying she is unwilling to work for a pervert scumbag. She shouldn’t HAVE to tell him to eff off, he should not be an @$$hole.
