Gal Gadot continues to establish its status as an international film star.
Economic magazine Forbes ranked Gadot third among the highest paid actresses in Hollywood.
According to the report, the Israeli actress earned $ 31.5 million this year, 20 million of which she received for her participation in Netflix's "Red Notice," which was cut short at the beginning of the first Corona wave and recently renewed.
Gadot became an international star thanks to her role as "Wonder Woman".
The second film in the film series was supposed to be released last summer, but the Corona crisis led to its postponement to an unknown date.
It was previously reported that for the first "Wonder Woman" Gadot received only $ 300,000.
This paltry sum was explained by the fact that the production took a gamble on casting for such a prestigious role, and at the time it was unclear whether she could carry on her back one of the most popular comic book characters.
Another film starring Gadot that was slated for release later this year is "Death on the Nile," based on a book by Agatha Christie.
The film was directed by the British Kenneth Berna, who also plays the character of Detective Hercule Poirot.
In the first place in the ranking of "Forbes" is ranked the Colombian actress Sofia Vergara, who made $ 43 million this year.
And Gara has starred for years in "Modern Family" and recently began starring as a judge on American "Good Talent."
In second place was actress Angelina Jolie with $ 35 million.
In fourth place was Melissa McCarthy with $ 25 million in revenue, and in fifth place was actress Meryl Streep with revenue of $ 24 million.
