Israeli actress Gal Gadot is currently preparing an adaptation of Alfred Hitchcock’s famous film: To Catch A Thief , translated as La main au collet in French.
Initially, it is a novel by American writer David Dodge , published in 1952. Then, just three years after its release, famous director Alfred Hitchcock adapted it into a film. Starring Cary Grant as the Cat, and Grace Kelly as Florence. It was also on the set of this film that Grace Kelly met Rainier III of Monaco. She married him a few years later, in 1956.
So, Gal Gadot will probably reprise the role of Grace Kelly. Unless in her modern adaptation, she herself plays the cat!
As a reminder, the film tells the story of a former burglar specializing in jewelry theft. John Robie was nicknamed the Cat because of his extreme agility. Having abandoned his illegal activities a long time ago, she is making the most of his sunny retirement on the Côte d’Azur. However, she will find himself involved in spite of himself in a case of serial thefts, the ugly prankster signing his thefts in the same way as the Cat.
From Wonder Woman to Cleopatra
Thus, it is not impossible to see Gal Gadot shine in the main role. Especially since not only will she play in this film, but she will also be the director.
The Israeli actress has not been idle! Indeed, we will soon find it on our screens in many films. She will play in a biopic of Cleopatra, but also in the film Death on the Nile . She will also play the Evil Queen in a new Snow White movie . And we’re obviously expecting it in a Wonder Woman 3.
One thing is certain, the Israeli actress knows perfectly well how to illustrate herself in the role of a powerful character!
