The movie star has long performed many of her own stunts in films, and enthused about doing the one-on-one combat sequences.

Gal explained how she feels 'really in control,' when filming what she branded 'enjoyable' fight scenes.Gal told The Sun: 'I had plenty of bruises. I remember one Sunday I was walking with the girls in the park in London and someone looked at me weird. 'I was wearing a summer dress, oblivious to the fact my legs and back were completely bruised. I was with my daughters and people were looking at me like something was off.'But it's inevitable I have a number of injuries from those physical roles. I have two neck herniations and two back herniations. It's part of the job, unfortunately.'

'There are parts to making movies that I don't like. Fighting and doing the hand-on-hand combat, I really enjoy.' Gal expanded, likening fighting to dancing as she explained that she is able to express herself using her body, adding how the fight scenes are 'the one thing we do where I feel really in control.' After being crowned Miss Israel in 2004, Gal completed two years of mandatory military service in the country before studying to be a lawyer, while modelling on the side.

In 2009 her fighting skills were first seen on screen when she played action girl Gisele Yashar in Fast & Furious. She reprised the role in 2011 instalment Fast Five and again in 2013 for Fast & Furious 6, performing many of her own stunts.
