Gadot is set to take on the role of Wonder Woman for the first time next year in Batman vs Superman: Dawn of Justice before going on to star in a solo film.

However, the actress has come under fire having been called too skinny to take on the action packed role. But Gadot has hit back calling all the criticism that has come her way 'empty talk.'

Speaking to Robot Underdog, the actress said: "They said that I was too skinny and my boobs were too small [Laughs]... After they asked me here, In Israel, if I have eating disorders and why am I so skinny - they said my head was too big and my body was like a broomstick - I can take anything. It's just empty talk. I understand that part of what I'm doing means being exposed. And part of being exposed is being under fire.

"When I was younger I would take criticism really hard. But now it mostly amuses me. The true amazons had one boob so it wouldn't bother them in their archery. So it's not going to be like real amazons. We always try to make everyone happy but we can't."

Gadot will appear for the first time as Wonder Woman in Batman vs Superman: Dawn of Justice alongside Henry Cavill, Ben Affleck, and Jesse Eisenberg - Affleck and Eisenberg are also big new additions to the franchise.

The movie is the sequel to Man of Steel and will see Zack Snyder in the director's chair. There are also some familiar faces as Amy Adams, Diane Lane, and Laurence Fishburne are back as Lois Lane, Martha Kent, and Perry White.

While Gadot is no stranger to the big budget blockbuster with the Fast & Furious franchise under her belt, Wonder Woman is the biggest role of her career to date.

The Wonder Woman solo film is not set to hit the big screen until 2017 but Michelle MacLaren has been named as the film's director.

As for Gadot, she will be back on the big screen later this year with Triple 9 and Criminal.

Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice is released 25th March 2016.
