The “Fast & Furious” film franchise is known for its adrenaline rush plots and high-end action sequences. The blockbuster films have drawn audiences from around the world with car theatrics, fire, and lots of other special effects sequences.
Gal wanted to prove her worth, and so she joined the cast immediately, eager to prove herself and become a part of the cast family. She never needed to worry as she soon stood out by doing nearly all of her own action sequences and stuntwork herself.
Her First Steps
Despite the rejection from the role of Camille Montes, Gal didn’t close the door on her desire to act. She instead was able to take a role in an Israeli TV series. It may not have been a Hollywood blockbuster, but it was still a great opportunity to expand her acting abilities.
The show was called "Bubot," and the plot centered on the interpersonal drama of a group of people working in the modeling industry. Given her background in modeling, it was a great fit for her first role.
The Fast And Furious Girl
She may not have been chosen for the role in "Quantum of Solace" but Gal had made an impression on the casting director. When they were looking to fill the roles for the fourth film in the "Fast & Furious" franchise, they remembered her. This time, Gal landed the role of Gisele.
She says that playing Gisele in the film reminded her of her time in the army. Gal thinks that she was awarded the role because she was knowledgeable about the weapons used in the production. Her former military training and knowledge certainly didn’t hurt!
Getting Attention
After joining the "Fast and Furious" franchise, Gal soon garnered attention from both audiences and Hollywood. Her newfound fame started to bring in more acting opportunities for the rising star. Later within the same year, she appeared on the big screen; she also appeared on the small screen.
Gal’s next opportunity was on the TV series "Entourage." She may have only appeared on one episode, but it only continued to open more doors for her. She was then cast as Olivia in "The Beautiful Life," the American teen drama.
Success Unfolds
Gal’s career was really beginning to take off; she had now shared the big screen with some major stars. She starred alongside comedians Steve Carell and Tina Fey in the hilarious film "Date Night."
Gal also landed a role next to an even bigger star when she took the role of Naomi in the action movie starring Tom Cruise, "Knight & Day." She probably never imagined as a young girl that she would act next to the star of "Cocktail," "Top Gun," and "Rain Man"!
