Gal Gadot's The Runner Debuts to 9% on Rotten Tomatoes, Critics Call It a Career Low

Gal Gadot's new Prime Video thriller The Runner opened to a mere 9% on Rotten Tomatoes, making it her lowest-rated film. Critics are mixed: some praise the pace, but several reviews condemn the film as shallow and a career low for Gadot. The Guardian gave it two stars, while Variety and IGN offered tepid takes; Hollywood Reporter found some merit in its suspenseful pace. The movie follows Gadot as a London attorney racing to save her abducted son, and Gadot’s Wonder Woman exit headlines accompany the release.

London Run Falls Short: A Flawed Tech-Thriller in The Runner (2026)

Robert Kojder’s review portrays The Runner (2026) as a lean 75-minute London chase hampered by a flimsy script and muddy geography, with Gal Gadot delivering an uneven performance despite some convincing running sequences and Anthony Dod Mantle’s cinematography; a blunt anti-tech message and an unsatisfying finale sap momentum, leaving the film feeling contrived and disappointing.

The Runner Stumbles in a Desperate London Dash

The Runner Stumbles in a Desperate London Dash

In The Runner, Gal Gadot plays Maia Marten, a desperate single mother racing against a kidnapper to save her diabetic son. Director Kevin Macdonald leans on flashy visuals and brisk editing, but the thin, didactic script rarely sustains momentum beyond two standout train-chase moments. The result is a self-serious thriller that never quite hits the adrenaline promised by its premise, running 1 hour 24 minutes and streaming on Amazon Prime Video.

Quartet of New Films Delivers Laughs, Lore, and Slasher Shocks

A roundup of four new releases: The Runner—a fitness-driven Amazon thriller with Gal Gadot that’s more entertaining as a goofy hate-watch than a tense thriller; Chronovisor—a heady, artful debut about a device that lets you view history, led by Anne Laure Sellier and saturated in bibliophilic intrigue; Onslaught—a visually striking but ultimately underdeveloped horror-action by Adam Wingard that sacrifices character payoff for style; and The Whisper Man—a Netflix serial-killer drama with a strong cast that fails to build suspense or depth.

Gadot blasts DC for broken WW3 promises and Cavill exit

Gal Gadot reveals on the Happy Sad Confused podcast that DC Studios led her to believe Wonder Woman 3 would be developed, but plans stalled amid the DCU reboot, and she criticizes how Henry Cavill’s return as Superman was handled after Black Adam’s post‑credit scene. She notes promises were not kept and that Patty Jenkins was not treated elegantly either, while a new Wonder Woman is currently in development with writer Ana Nogueira; Gadot remains grateful for the role and hopes the successor honors the character as the franchise moves forward.

Gal Gadot Says Wonder Woman 3 Was in Development, Then Cut Amid DC Shake-Up

Gal Gadot told the Happy Sad Confused podcast that Wonder Woman 3 was being developed with DC Studios chiefs James Gunn and Peter Safran before their takeover, but a leadership shake-up at DC led to its cancellation. She criticized how Henry Cavill’s Superman return and exit—and Patty Jenkins’ involvement—were handled as not elegant, noting that Cavill’s comeback was later undone as DC rebooted Superman with David Corenswet. Gadot also suggested she’s unlikely to reprise Wonder Woman in the future due to family commitments.

Gal Gadot told a podcast she’s embracing artificial intelligence in filmmaking, noting the AI component was used for Bitcoin’s sets and lighting and that she pushed to protect her performance from AI edits. While she cited efficiency and artistic benefits, the comments sparked online backlash over concerns that AI could harm workers’ jobs, with SAG-AFTRA reportedly seeking contract protections for performers as AI becomes more prevalent in the industry.

Gadot Reflects on Wonder Woman Exit Amid DC Shake-Up

Gal Gadot says she exited Wonder Woman after seeing how Henry Cavill’s DC exit and the broader handling of fellow creatives were not elegant; she was open to continuing, but chose to step away so the character could be treated with respect, noting she was a vessel rather than the sole owner and that Gunn/Safran’s team would develop it, though the plan evolved with a new Wonder Woman casting.

Dante on a Big Screen: A Gorgeous but Wandering Netflix Trip

Julian Schnabel’s Netflix film In the Hand of Dante is an ambitious, visually lush (and often striking) adaptation that toggles between black-and-white and color storytelling. Anchored by Oscar Isaac and a starry ensemble, it probes art, violence and faith but sometimes feels self-indulgent and scattershot, leaving a sweeping, roomier vision that’s brilliant in spots yet uneven overall.
