Patty Jenkins is not a strange name in giving blockbuster movies. She is directing the films like Wonder Woman and its upcoming part, Wonder Woman 1984. And she is coming with a new production, Cleopatra, in the industry which will be a biographical one. It features the story of Cleopatra, Queen of Egypt.
The most interesting thing about Jenkins and her production is that her forthcoming movie will star Gal Gadot, one of DC's superheroes, Wonder Woman of her (Jenkin's) past works. And without a doubt, the thing is clear that Gadot will be portraying the role of Queen of Egypt.
