Gal Gadot wowed fans when she starred as the Amazonian warrior Wonder Woman in DCs 2017 film.

And now it looks as though the 33-year-old is preparing for a new role, as she is being lined up to star in Murder On The Orient Express sequel: Death On The Nile.

Although not 100 per cent confirmed, the actress is reportedly close to signing on for the role of socialite Linnet Ridgeway/Doyle, the Hollywood Reporter claims.

In the 1937 Agatha Christie novel, Linnet gets tangled up in a love triangle as she marries a man named Simon who broke off an engagement with another woman called Jacqueline.

Just like every other Christie story, the romance ends in a tragedy and it is left up to detective Hercule Poirot to solve the mystery.
