Gal Gadot and Kristen Wiig had a great time because of the friendly atmosphere they had when they filmed "Wonder Woman 1984."

In an exclusive interview with Entertainment Tonight, Gadot and her co-stars spoke about their experience filming for the "Wonder Woman" sequel. They also shared some behind-the-scenes stories. During the interview, Gadot and Wiig talked about their fondness for each other and how much they love one another.

"I love Kristen Wiig," Gadot said. "We have this beautiful friendship.”

"It was an instant connection. We have a very similar sense of humor," Wiig said about filming with Gadot. "Gal is a great scene partner and friend, but at the same time, we can immediately go into, like, those scenes where we have that supervillain-hero rivalry."

Gadot's on-screen love interest, Chris Pine, chimed in saying the gals "make an awesome duo.” Director Patty Jenkins also noticed their closeness. She found it great to see Gadot and Wiig’s love and friendship on set.

"Gal and I love each other," Wiig said.

"She's brilliant," the "Wonder Woman" lead star added referring to Wiig.

In the movie, Diana Prince (Gadot) finds a friend in Dr. Barbara Ann Minerva (Wiig), a name that is pretty familiar to comic book fans. However, she later transforms into The Cheeta, one of Wonder Woman's enemies.

Gadot shared a clip of their interview on Instagram. The two can be seen dancing and enjoying each scene they shot together. She accompanied the post with a caption that captures her close bond with Wiig.

"I was so thrilled to work with Kristen Wiig, I knew she is super funny and talented but I had no idea we would have such an instant powerful connection," Gadot wrote.

"She made every day on set so much fun, made me laugh until I cried and made this whole experience so special to me. I love you Krissy! #WW84 #WeekofWonder."

"Wonder Woman 1984" will be released on Dec. 5 on HBOX Max and in some theaters. It will be the first film on HBO Max that would be available in 4K Ultra HD, HDR 10, Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos.
