Gal Gadot is speaking out on the problems she had with Joss Whedon amid the making of Justice League, and the measures she took in response.

Gadot, 36, chat with Elle magazine for its Women in Hollywood Issue about her experience working with Whedon and the steps she took afterwards.

'I was shocked by the way that he spoke to me,' the Wonder Woman actress said of Whedon, who has past been accused of toxic on-set behavior. 'I just did what I felt like I had to do. And it was to tell people that it's not okay.'

Gadot said she 'was shaking trees as soon as it happened' and says 'that the heads of Warner Brothers ... took care of it.'

Gadot said she 'would've done the same thing' if she was a man, and that she did not know if Whedon would have talked to her in that way if she was.

'I don't know,' she said. 'We'll never know. But my sense of justice is very strong ... but whatever, it's done. Water under the bridge.'

The Israeli star said that her reaction to Whedon's behavior traced back to her 'sense of righteousness.
