Gal Gadot’s Next Moves: From Heart of Stone to Cleopatra – What’s Next for the Action Queen?
Gal Gadot isn’t slowing down anytime soon. After captivating the world as Wonder Woman, the Israeli superstar is back in spy mode with Heart of Stone and is set to rule the silver screen as the legendary Cleopatra. But what’s next for one of Hollywood’s most bankable and ambitious actresses? Buckle up, because Gadot’s horizon is looking bigger, bolder, and more powerful than ever.
Heart of Stone: The Birth of a New Action Heroine
Streaming giant Netflix brought us Heart of Stone in 2023, with Gal Gadot front and center as Rachel Stone — a globe-trotting, high-tech intelligence operative with deadly skills and a dangerous mission to protect a mysterious weapon known as “The Heart.” Fans looking for non-stop action, sleek espionage, and Gadot in full stunt mode were not disappointed.
The female-led spy thriller marked Netflix’s answer to the Mission: Impossible and James Bond franchises, and let’s just say it delivered serious adrenaline. Packed with high-octane fight scenes and international intrigue, Heart of Stone quickly climbed the platform’s Top 10 charts, proving that Gadot can more than carry a franchise on her own terms.
So, will there be a sequel? All signs point to yes.
While Netflix has yet to officially greenlight Heart of Stone 2, both Gadot and Skydance (the production company behind the movie) have teased interest in developing a full-blown franchise. With its strong streaming numbers and an open-ended finale, fans should keep their eyes peeled for a potential announcement soon.
Cleopatra: From Wonder Woman to Warrior Queen
Moving from espionage to empire, Gal Gadot is also gearing up to step into the sandals of Cleopatra — and this time, she’s not just starring; she’s producing too. This ambitious historical epic has been years in the making, and anticipation is sky-high.
Originally announced in 2020, the Cleopatra project made waves as soon as it hit the news cycle. Gadot’s casting sparked global discussions about representation and historical reinterpretation, and while the film has seen behind-the-scenes shakeups, it remains one of the most hotly anticipated movies in development.
Produced by Gadot’s own company Pilot Wave and directed by Kari Skogland (The Falcon and the Winter Soldier), Cleopatra aims to present the Egyptian queen not just as a seductress, but as a visionary leader and powerful strategist. According to Gadot, this version of Cleopatra will highlight the intelligence and impact of one of history’s most iconic women.
"We’re telling Cleopatra’s story like it’s never been told before," Gadot shared in an interview. “She wasn’t just a beautiful woman — she was smart, she was strategic, and she changed history.”
The production timeline has been a rollercoaster, but the latest buzz hints at movement behind the scenes, with casting announcements expected later this year and shooting possibly beginning in late 2024. If all goes as planned, Cleopatra might just be Gadot’s next awards-season contender.
Taking Control Behind the Camera
While Gal Gadot is already a mega-star in front of the camera, she’s making serious moves behind the scenes too. With her production company, Pilot Wave, she’s carving out a space as one of the most influential women in Hollywood.
She's not only focused on female-driven narratives, but also on reimagining storytelling through a modern, empowering lens. Projects like Cleopatra represent this vision, but sources close to the actress reveal there’s even more in the works — from biopics to edgy thrillers and even limited series.
In an entertainment landscape that’s finally embracing more diverse voices, Gadot is quickly becoming a behind-the-scenes force to be reckoned with. Watch out, Reese Witherspoon and Margot Robbie — there’s a new producer queen on the block.
What’s Next? Reunions, Franchises & Surprise Appearances?
Now that Heart of Stone is a confirmed success and Cleopatra is heating up, fans are dying to know: What else is Gal Gadot cooking up?
First, let’s talk Wonder Woman. While the DC Universe is undergoing a total reboot under James Gunn, conversations about Wonder Woman 3 persist. Though nothing has been finalized, reports suggest Gadot could still be involved in the superhero universe in some form — whether as a cameo player or a rebooted version of Diana Prince.
Then there’s the possibility of her reuniting with her Red Notice co-stars Dwayne Johnson and Ryan Reynolds. Red Notice 2 is currently in development, and insiders say that Gadot is expected to reprise her role as the femme fatale art thief, The Bishop.
There’s also buzz about a new thriller in talks with Universal, as well as secret projects under wraps with Netflix.
Style, Power, and Global Star Power
Let’s not forget, Gal Gadot is also a certified fashion icon, beauty mogul, and international ambassador. Between red carpets, brand endorsements, and her signature glam-meets-badass energy, she’s built a brand that’s both aspirational and accessible.
From empowering roles to producing trailblazing films, Gal Gadot is proving she’s more than a leading lady — she’s a full-blown entertainment powerhouse.
Final Thoughts: The Future is Female — and Gal Gadot is Leading It
Whether she’s chasing villains in leather, ruling kingdoms in gold, or shaping the stories she tells the world, Gal Gadot is forging a path that’s as fearless as her on-screen characters. With Heart of Stone potentially launching a new spy franchise and Cleopatra poised for cinematic greatness, her future is nothing short of unstoppable.
So what’s next? Whatever she wants, clearly.
Stay tuned — Gal Gadot’s ambitious Hollywood reign has only just begun.
