Gal, 32, recently backed out of a dinner honoring Brett, 48, according to Page Six.  “Brett made a lot of money from the success of Wonder Woman, thanks to his company having helped finance the first movie," an insider told the site. "Now Gadot is saying she won’t sign for the sequel unless Warner Bros. buys Brett out of his financing deal and gets rid of him.”

“She’s tough and stands by her principles," the source said of Gal. "She also knows the best way to hit people like Brett Ratner is in the wallet."

Gal, as the star of the film, realizes the power she wields in this situation. "She also knows that Warner Bros. has to side with her on this issue as it develops," the insider continued. "They can’t have a movie rooted in women’s empowerment being part-financed by a man ­accused of sexual misconduct against women."
