Last week, Page Six ran a report alleging Gal Gadot told Warner Bros. she won't sign on for Wonder Woman 2 unless Brett Ratner, the producer who helped finance the first Wonder Woman film, is removed from the equation. If you've been following the news, then you know Ratner's been accused of sexual assault and harassment by several women in Hollywood, including Olivia Munn, Natasha Henstridge, and Ellen Page. So it'd make sense Gadot wouldn't want him a part of the Wonder Woman franchise because it's been lauded for depicting strong, empowering, and three-dimensional women.
“The truth is, there’s so many people involved in making this movie, it’s not just me, and they all echoed the same sentiments," she said. "Everyone knew what was the right thing to do. But there was nothing for me to actually come and say because [the decision] was already done before this article [on Saturday declaring a stand-off] came out.”
Gadot has been a vocal champion for the female celebrities who've come forward with their sexual assault and harassment stories by powerful men in Hollywood. "Bullying and sexual harassment is unacceptable! I stand by all the courageous women confronting their fears and speaking out," Gadot posted to Instagram on October 13. "Together we stand. We are all united in this time of change."

Brett Ratner is the Budget Walmart Version of a director.
Finally there is some pushback.
How could he be involved from his prison cell? What, he’s not in prison?
Gal, you’re just as disgusting as he is!
Yuck!
Ratner's been accused of sexual assault and harassment by several women in Hollywood, including Olivia Munn, Natasha Henstridge, and Ellen Page.And when her career turns out to be the Wonder Woman portrayal, she'll always blame Hollywood sexism, rather than the fact that there's millions of actresses.
And just like a woman she’s reacting like a gossipy hen.
Ellen Page is a militant lesbian. I find it hard to believe that any male would try to assault her.
Really the first movie I saw Ellen Page in was called “Hard Candy” in 2005, anyone watching that movie would know that Ellen Page was a lesbian.
No, she didn’t claim he assaulted her, she claimed he “outed” her on the set of the movie, so I guess they are calling that “harassment”.
Ratner told the then-closeted Page (who dated men and rejected her lesbian attractions even at age 18) she was a dyke, and shouted to an out-lez actress "Can you please f**k her so she knows she's gay?" Ratner is repulsive beyond words.
Well thanks I didn’t have all the facts but this is a thread I’m pretty embarrassed about I really don’t care.
