]]>The sequel to Wonder Woman may be set in 1984, but the Israeli actress’s most-recently announced project will take her to the ‘40s.
Gadot is scheduled to play Irene Sendler who saved thousands of Jewish children during the Holocaust.
The Polish woman worked in the Warsaw Ghetto where she managed to smuggle out children, provide them with false identities, and place them with families. She was arrested by the Germans in 1943 but refused to reveal any information about the children, despite being tortured. Her endeavors led to her being recognized as Righteous Amongst the Nations.
The Warner Bros. production, entitled Irene Sendler, will also be produced by Gadot through the production company she has formed with her husband, Jaron Versano, called Pilot Wave.
Justine Juel Gillmer, whose credits include Harry Haft, is expected to pen the screenplay.
