Israeli actress Gal Gadot appeared on "Jimmy Kimmel Live" this week, bringing a touch of the Rosh Hashanah holiday to the show. She explained traditional customs, such as eating apples and honey for a sweet new year, and revealed her fondness for gefilte fish, particularly its horseradish component. Gadot then demonstrated the shofar, an instrument blown on Rosh Hashanah, explaining its purpose is to awaken the soul and unite people. She successfully produced a sound from the shofar, joking that it didn't sound great but she managed.
Gadot was promoting her new film, "Racing Against Time," in which she plays a single mother whose son is kidnapped. The role required extensive running throughout London, a significant physical challenge as she is not a natural runner. She reported taking over 100,000 steps daily during the first week of filming. The production used a documentary style, with camera operators on skateboards and rollerblades. Gadot sustained a foot fracture near the end of filming, ten days before completion.
The actress also shared an anecdote about her admiration for Madonna, whom she impersonated in a school play. Gadot recounted meeting Madonna at Uma Thurman's home and was surprised when Madonna later recognized her, calling her "amazing."
