Gal Gadot (Wonder Woman) is close to signing a deal to star and executive produce a limited series about actress and inventor, Hedy Lamarr. The Affair co-creator/executive producer Sarah Treem is in talks to write the limited series whilst Warren Littlefield (The Handmaid's Tale) will produce for Showtime per Deadline. Gal Gadot's husband will also produce.
Israel-born Gadot had been looking to do a project about Lamarr, who has been referred to as real-life Jewish “Wonder Woman” whose inventions led to WiFi and GPS.
I hear Treem came up with an idea how to tell Lamarr’s remarkable story that Gadot sparked to. The project was taken to Showtime through Treem’s relationship there. She is the showrunner of The Affair, which is wrapping its fourth season and heading into its fifth and final season. Treem co-created the praised drama series with Hagai Levi.
