It’s official: Gal Gadot’s first solo outing as Wonder Woman is now a wrap, as the actress jumps on social media to thank the team behind it.

The shoot has lasted six months, with Gadot calling it on Instagram “such an amazing, exciting, dreamy, happy and fascinating experience I will cherish it forever. Thank you to everyone who was involved, our amazing cast, crew and phenomenal director.”

No rest for Wonder Woman though, as the star now heads to London, where Justice League: Part One is currently shooting. Another confirmation from the set is that actress/martial artist/stunt woman Mayling Ng will be playing Orana in the film.

Ng too took to Instagram to show off a very beaten and bruised body, hinting here arrival in the DC Universe thanks to her choice of shirt:

In some continuities Orana takes the title of Wonder Woman from Diana in battle; whether or not this will play out in the film isn’t known at this time, but from that pic it certainly looks like she’s been giving someone a thrashing.

Wonder Woman is scheduled for release on the 2nd June, 2017.

Marc is a self-confessed nerd. Ever since seeing Star Wars for the first time around 1979 he’s been an unapologetic fan of the Wars and still believes, with Clone Wars and now Underworld, we are yet to see the best Star Wars. He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
