(June 27, 2023 / JNS) Gal Gadot will next year become the first Israeli actor to be honored with a star on Hollywood’s Walk of Fame.

“This is unbelievable. I’m so, so grateful and thankful and humbled,” said Gadot in response to Monday’s announcement by the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce.

The 38-year-old Petah Tikva native is one of 31 entertainment professionals chosen to have their names etched on the sidewalks along Hollywood Boulevard and Vine Streets in Los Angeles, California, which currently includes 2,789 stars.

Israeli producer Haim Saban was honored with the 2,605th star on the famous strip in 2017.
