In an interview with Slashfilms, the actress remarked that her biggest role models were the iconic Gal Gadot and Charlize Theron. Stating that Theron used to do her own stunts and Gal Gadot, being Wonder Woman, Sasha Calle was left mesmerized.

“Look, in 2017, I watched ‘Wonder Woman,’ Gal Gadot, and I remember seeing her and really feeling represented, and I was like, ‘That’s what I want to do.’ I walked out of that screening, and I was like, ‘That’s me.’ And I had this — the back of an IKEA frame, that wooden board in the back, and I created a vision board on there.”

The actress further added,

“That same year, I had seen ‘Atomic Blonde,’ and I put both of them [on it]. I put Gal Gadot in her Wonder Woman costume with a green screen fighting a stuntee, and I had to put Charlize [Theron] because she did all her own stunts. I thought that was the coolest thing.”

Although Sasha Calle was impressed by the duo of Charlize Theron and Gal Gadot, it wasn’t the case so between Theron and Gadot. As per the reports, Charlize Theron was asked to portray the role of Gal Gadot’s mother in the 2017 movie Wonder Woman!

Charlize Theron Felt Insulted For A Role In Wonder Woman

Back when Wonder Woman was still in the making, the Mad Max: Fury Road actress was offered the role of Princess Diana’s mother, Hippolyta. In an interview, she revealed how insulted she felt when she was originally asked the question.

“This is a great example of how Hollywood like slaps you in the face when you start aging.”

The actress further added that she thought she was originally offered the role of Wonder Woman but she had no idea who she was.

“And I was like, ‘I’m not familiar with it. What does Wonder Woman really do?’ And this person said, ‘No, it’s for Wonder Woman’s mom.’ “
