Gal Gadot to present award at the Oscars

While Wonder Woman didn’t receive any nods from the big awards ceremonies this year, the film – and Gadot – received the National Board of Review’s Spotlight award.

While neither Gal Gadot nor Wonder Woman was nominated for any Oscars, the glamorous Israeli actress will be taking the stage at the Academy Awards ceremony on March 4. That’s because Gadot will be one of the celebrity presenters announcing a winner at the star-studded event.
Gadot, who has quickly become one of the hottest names in Hollywood, also presented an award at the Golden Globes in January. At the Oscars, she will join other presenters such as Oscar Isaac, Lin-Manuel Miranda, Viola Davis, Jennifer Garner, Greta Gerwig, Tiffany Haddish, Tom Holland and Emma Stone.
While Wonder Woman didn’t receive any nods from the big awards ceremonies this year, the film – and Gadot – received the National Board of Review’s Spotlight award. Wonder Woman was also named Time magazine’s top character of the year, and Gadot was IMDB’s No. 1 star of 2017.
So what (or who) will Gadot be wearing to the Oscars ceremony? After a controversy last month, we can be pretty sure it won’t be Lebanese designer Elie Saab.
