It’s a wonder why she bothers wearing make-up at all.

A fresh-faced Gal Gadot stepped out of her hotel in New York on Friday, the day Wonder Woman prepared to take on US cinemas.

The 32-year-old was dressed down for the big occasion, opting for a pair of stressed wide-leg jeans with flat sandals and a fitted navy crew neck top.

It has already racked up almost $19million in overseas markets; its opening night take in the UK did better than Marvel rivals Logan and Captain America: The First Avenger.

It is the fourth installment in the DC Expanded Universe, following Man Of Steel, Batman Vs Superman: Dawn Of Justice, and Suicide Squad.
