Gal Gadot played the titular character with Patty Jenkins serving as the first female director on a superhero flick, and both, along with the rest of the team working on the film, smashed the job out of the park.

Wonder Woman director Patty Jenkins has hit back at fellow filmmaker James Cameron’s criticisms of the movie, claiming that he has an “inability to understand what Wonder Woman is or stands for.”

Cameron, behind massive blockbusters like Titanic and Avatar, said in an interview via The Guardian on Friday (August 25th) that Jenkins’ depiction of Gal Gadot’s Wonder Woman was a “step backwards” and that the reaction to it from the film industry was just “self-congratulatory back-patting”.

“She’s an objectified icon, and it’s just male Hollywood doing the same old thing! I’m not saying I didn’t like the movie but, to me, it’s a step backwards,” he said, then pointing to his own Terminator film for a better example of what he meant.

Though three DC Extended Universe flicks - 'Man of Steel', 'Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice' and 'Suicide Squad' have failed to ignite the passions of critics across the globe - it could be fourth time lucky for the company with the upcoming release of 'Wonder Woman', featuring Gal Gadot in the titular role and Patty Jenkins as director.
