Gal Gadot is now known worldwide as Wonder Woman and has appeared in massive franchises like Fast & Furious, Justice League, and even made cameos in films such as Shazam! Fury of the Gods and Fast X.

But before all that success, she was still building her acting career and took smaller roles, including a brief appearance on HBO’s Entourage. Looking back, however, she revealed that her experience on the set of the comedy series was one of the worst of her career.

In August 2025, Gadot sat down for an interview on Channel Keshet 12’s talk show The A Talks. During the conversation, she admitted that working on Entourage left her feeling uncomfortable due to inappropriate behavior she witnessed on set. The actress explained that things got so bad she ended up leaving before finishing her work.

“What I hated and didn’t enjoy at all was being on Entourage, an American series. Someone there behaved inappropriately, and it got to the point where I left the set and stopped working with them,” Gadot said.

Her remarks highlight a very different side to the popular HBO show, which ran from 2004 to 2011. Created by Doug Ellin, Entourage followed Vincent Chase, a young Hollywood star, and his close group of friends as they navigated the ups and downs of fame in Los Angeles. The show became a big hit for HBO and was loosely inspired by executive producer Mark Wahlberg’s own rise in Hollywood.

Over its eight-season run, Entourage earned strong reviews from critics. Jeremy Piven’s performance as Ari Gold, Vince’s aggressive agent, and Kevin Dillon’s role as Vince’s brother Johnny “Drama” Chase were especially praised. Publications like The Wall Street Journal described the writing as “almost always smart, sharp and funny,” while Entertainment Weekly called the third season “almost preposterously enjoyable.” The series developed a loyal fanbase, eventually spawning a feature film in 2015.

Still, Gadot’s personal experience was far from positive. While she didn’t go into detail about who or what specifically happened, her comment shows that not all was smooth behind the scenes. For an actress still at the start of her career in 2009, stepping away from the set was a bold decision.

Since then, Gadot has become one of the most recognized stars in Hollywood, headlining DC’s Wonder Woman films and working alongside some of the biggest names in the industry. Her story about Entourage adds a new layer to her journey, showing how early challenges shaped the path to her later success.
