Gal Gadot almost played Furiosa in ‘Mad Max: Fury Road’

LOS ANGELES, Sept 9:  Actor Gal Gadot said she came a close second to Hollywood star Charlize Theron to play Imperator Furiosa in “Mad Max: Fury Road”.
The 32-year-old “Wonder Woman” star revealed she has lost out on many roles in the past as she was not a famous name in the film industry, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
“I had so many almosts for big, great things, but I was never a big enough name… It was always me and the big name. I was runner-up for ‘Mad Max’ with Charlize,” Gadot said in Awards Chatter podcast.
When asked if she still wondered about missing opportunity of featuring in the multiple Oscar-winning film, the actor dismissed the idea saying there were no hard feelings.
“Charlize, I love. We have Patty Jenkins in common,” she said.
The “Wonder Woman” director previously worked with Theron in the 2003 film “Monster”. (PTI)
