Not everyone can say that their mom is Wonder Woman, and Gal Gadot’s daughter isn’t shy about letting everyone know that her’s is.

In a recent appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live, Gadot was asked if her daughter was proud of the fact that she plays Wonder Woman in the DC cinematic universe.
“She does. She’s very proud. I don’t think she understands the concept of everything, but basically, Alma, my daughter, is very proud. We go to the park and then she goes, you know the kids, they try to make friends, so they go to the parents and they go, she goes “My mom is Wonder Woman“, and then the parents would look at me strangely, not recognizing me, and I would go (shrugs) “you know, every mother is a Wonder Woman“.
Most would agree with the sentiment, but not Kimmel, who said: “My mother was more like the Joker.”
Kimmel then asked if Alma was planning on going as Wonder Woman for Halloween, but it seems she has something much more colorful in mind. “No, she does not want to. She is going to be a unicorn.” Gadot won’t be either, saying “I had enough of the costume, I’m going to try something else”, but she wouldn’t say what costume she was learning towards.
Alma isn’t alone in her celebration of her mom’s achievements, as DC Entertainment president Diane Nelson recently lauded Gadot’s portrayal as well.
“It’s a testament to Zack Synder’s casting ability. I think Gal was someone who embodied the role so beautifully and we saw lots of evidence of how audiences responded when she came on screen for the first time. People just burst out clapping whether it was in the trailer or screaming or standing up, she and I think Ben Affleck as Batman really stood out as two amazing parts of that movie.”
