She is. But Snyder is well know for the intense training regimes he puts his actors through. No doubt she will be bulked up by the time they begin filming.
Her appearance is fine, great even, the bigger problem/question is can she act?

I think she's just a cameo, but I like they chose a newcomer.
Doubt it. If it was just a cameo they probably wouldn't have announced her. I'm expecting they are using this movie as a springboard for her and Batman's solo movies.

True in both statements. Never seen her in anything, so hopefully she can act.

Gal Gadot is Diana/Wonder Womanhttp://www.deadline.com/2013/12/newcomer-gal-gadot-set-for-wonder-woman-in-batman-vs-superman/
The problem, I fear, is not going to be if Gadot can bulk up; the question is: will she? Put another way: will Hollywood ensure the Amazonian/warrior body WW should have and fans expect, or, will Hollywood try to convince us a stick is curvaceous and powerful? I suspect the latter: the sheer quest for profit will continue the terrible, female body-image brainwashing because Hollywood thinks a stick (hyped as otherwise) is what the general population expects of today's "modern woman."
I guarantee ya: they put 20 lbs of muscle on Gadot and every moron who's never read a Wonder Woman comic will cry, "She's fat!"

You thought Amber Heard was bad. At least she has an acting history and can be pictured to look like Diana. Gal is the skinniest of all actresses considered for the role and she doesn't even look like Diana!
I hope fan speculation about this being a Justice League movie isn't true. If Gal was only considered because she'll never get her own movie inspite of her acting history, they were better off casting Katy Perry.
I thought casting Ben Affleck was bad initially, but casting Gal Gadot takes the cake.

I have a funny feeling that WW would be Amazonian in the MOS2 but from krypton just a bad feeling I have with them going with this actress.
I think she would be a descendant of a Kara Zor El, thus creating the amazons If they were to go that route. It's an abomination of an idea that shouldn't be entertained.

Doing that to fit the role just proves she's miscast. I understand there isn't a woman out there that's perfectly like Wonder Woman, but there are many that are at least 75% of her and are 100% better than Gal Godot.

I agree, I like Gal but I believe she is all wrong.. Hopefully she will prove me wrong but that is 2 years away
