Gal Gadot reportedly reshot parts of the film Wonder Woman while she was five months pregnant with her second child!
She had to do all sorts of stunts and the role demanded a lot of physical performances, which she did flawlessly, partly because of her intense physical training before the movie, as well as the fact that she was once a member of the Israeli military.
According to Entertainment Weekly, Gadot had to reshoot a scene in which her role, Diana Prince, and Steve Trevor (Chris Pine) walk to the frontlines of World War I and have a serious talk about the horrors of war. The film’s costume department had to cut a section out of the front of her costume and replace it with green cloth so her figure could be altered in postproduction.
Apart from Gal Gadot, these other celebrity moms have shot their films during pregnancy:
Halle Berry
The Academy Award winning actress was pregnant while she was filming X-Men: Days of Future Past. She actually found out that she was 3 months pregnant with her second child during filming, and she admitted that she had a hard time putting on Storm’s outfit.
The producers also had to shoot her scenes quickly, to finish everything before her baby bump started to show.
Scarlett Johansson
The Avengers actress was pregnant during filming Avengers: Age of Ultron. And since she was unable to do some of the stunts that were required in the movie, some special effects magic was needed.
Some scenes were shot with body doubles, and Scarlett’s face was later grafted on their faces during post-production. The result is an amazing film, and you can hardly notice the special effects!
Julia Roberts
While filming Ocean’s Twelve, Julia Roberts was pregnant with her twins, and surprisingly, the writers added her pregnancy into the script!
She adds that while filming, her co-stars George Clooney and Matt Damon were pranksters, but when they found out that she was pregnant, they became extremely caring and made sure that she was always comfortable during the entire time.
Kate Winslet
The Titanic star was 5 months pregnant while she was shooting the film Divergent. Well placed folders and iPads were key to hiding her 5-month belly bump.
Surprisingly, the staff had to talk her out of doing some insane stunts, as they were worried about her pregnancy. She was also reported to have asked to reshoot some of the stunts after she gave birth so that she could do it herself!
