In one of the most unexpected Hollywood outbursts of the year, Gal Gadot, the actress forever tied to her controversial portrayal of Wonder Woman, reportedly stormed out of an early screening of Superman (2025). The incident, which has quickly set social media ablaze, raises new questions about Gadot’s standing in the superhero genre—and her fragile relationship with DC’s revamped cinematic universe.

According to multiple sources inside the private screening, the flashpoint moment occurred during a dramatic sequence in which Nathan Fillion’s Green Lantern heroically saves a young Jarhanpurian boy from imminent execution by Boravian soldiers. Rather than applauding the display of heroism, Gadot allegedly lost her composure. Witnesses claim she muttered heatedly under her breath before abruptly standing up, brushing past stunned executives, and heading straight for the exit.

But it wasn’t just her exit that grabbed headlines—it was what she reportedly said while storming out. “If my Wonder Woman was there, that wouldn’t have happened,” she fumed, referring to her now-shelved iteration of Diana Prince. “Boravia and Lex Luthor would have successfully claimed the land that was promised to them 69,420 years ago just like in the comics.”

The remark has left fans baffled. Was Gadot referencing some obscure deep-cut storyline from the DC archives, or was she inventing her own twisted comic book lore on the spot? Either way, her statement struck many as bizarre, historically inaccurate, and perhaps even delusional. Within hours, #GalMeltdown and #Superman2025 were trending on Twitter, with fans fiercely debating her words.

A Career Plagued by Controversy

This is not the first time Gadot has faced criticism in the superhero community. Her breakout role in Wonder Woman (2017) initially won her praise, but the goodwill evaporated after the much-maligned Wonder Woman 1984. That sequel was lambasted for its incoherent plot and overblown performances, even landing Razzie nominations. Now, with early reviews hinting that her recent live-action Snow White remake may also become a Razzie contender, it appears Gadot is once again standing in the line of fire.

To make matters worse, Warner Bros.’s rebooted DC Universe has been steadily moving away from her version of Wonder Woman, casting doubt on whether she has any future in the franchise at all. Her decision to walk out of Superman (2025) may have just slammed that door shut permanently.

Fan Reactions: Divided but Brutal

The response online has been polarizing, though not in the way Gadot might have hoped. Some fans mocked her for “thinking Wonder Woman belongs in every movie,” while others accused her of disrespecting Nathan Fillion’s Green Lantern—a character many longtime DC fans have eagerly awaited on the big screen. One viral tweet read: “Imagine storming out of Superman because Green Lantern saved a kid. Gal, please, take a nap.”

Meanwhile, a smaller but louder faction of supporters have tried to defend her, claiming that Gadot was unfairly sidelined by DC Studios and is simply lashing out. “She’s emotional because her Wonder Woman was erased from the timeline,” one fan posted on Reddit. “She put her heart into it, and now she has to watch other heroes take her spotlight.”

Still, the overwhelming reaction has been ridicule rather than sympathy. Memes comparing Gadot’s alleged “comic book history” to fan fiction have spread across Instagram and TikTok, only deepening the controversy.

What This Means for Superman (2025)

Ironically, Gadot’s outburst may have provided Superman (2025) with the best publicity it could have asked for. Instead of headlines about its casting choices or early reviews, the story dominating the conversation is Gadot’s meltdown. In the cutthroat world of superhero cinema, even bad press can translate into ticket sales.

For Gadot, however, the consequences could be severe. Hollywood insiders are already speculating that her chances of ever reprising Wonder Woman are officially dead. “She just burned a bridge in front of the entire industry,” one anonymous executive told entertainment reporters.

Whether fans interpret her words as a passionate defense of her character or the desperate rant of a sidelined star, one thing is certain: Gal Gadot has once again found herself at the center of Hollywood’s loudest debate. And if Warner Bros. wasn’t ready to distance itself from her before, they certainly have a stronger reason now.
