Gal Gadot marked the anniversary of her Wonder Woman casting by dropping a major throwback: her original Batman v Superman camera test with Ben Affleck as Bruce Wayne.
Gadot posted the footage on Instagram with a message celebrating twelve years since she landed the role. She thanked Zack Snyder for choosing her as Diana Prince and said she rewatched the test for the first time last night.
“Twelve years ago today, I was cast as Wonder Woman. What a wild, life-changing ride with a character I love so much. I thought it would be fun to share my camera test with Ben — I watched it last night for the first time 😜
@zacksnyder thank you for sharing this with me and for casting me as Diana Prince. 🙅🏻♀️♥️”
She also shared Halloween-themed Wonder Woman photos earlier this fall, keeping the character in the spotlight even as DC transitions away from the Snyder-era films.

Zack Snyder Has Been Posting DCEU Material for Months
Gadot’s post lines up with Zack Snyder’s recent activity. For two months, Snyder has been sharing DCEU stills, behind-the-scenes material, and new Knightmare images across his social platforms.
Fans have noticed the timing. Snyder’s renewed presence has sparked ongoing speculation about the future of his characters and storylines, especially as his posts tend to trend whenever he highlights the older DC films.
SnyderVerse Creators Are Active Again
It isn’t just Snyder. Key creatives tied to the SnyderVerse — Larry Fong, Jay Oliva, and Clay Enos — have also been active online.
Their posts range from old production shots to commentary on past DC work. The sudden uptick has kept the fanbase buzzing, especially combined with Gadot resurfacing rare footage of her earliest moments as Diana.
What Gadot’s Post Means for Fans
The new camera-test clip is the kind of material fans don’t usually get to see. It shows Gadot and Affleck in their earliest on-screen chemistry, months before filming began on Batman v Superman.
For fans who still follow the Snyder-era cast, the timing feels notable. With Snyder, the cinematographers, the storyboard artists, and now Gadot all posting DC material again, the conversation around the original DCEU continues to heat up.
We’ve been told Gal Gadot will be returning when the SnyderVerse gets restored.
