Actress Gal Gadot – best known for playing Wonder Woman in several DC Extended Universe films – put together an amazing video from self-quarantine.

After already spending six days in self-isolation, the Israeli actress said, “These past few days got me feeling a bit philosophical.”

“You know, this virus has affected the entire world, everyone — doesn’t matter who you are, where you are from, we are all in this together,” she said.

Gadot said she was inspired by a video she saw of a man in Italy playing John Lennon’s “Imagine” for his neighbors while in isolation. “There was something so powerful and pure about this video,” she said.

So she gathered over a dozen of her celebrity friends to sing “Imagine” from their own self-isolations, including Lynda Carter, who played Wonder Woman in the 1970’s television series.

Model Cara Delevingne and her girlfriend actress Ashley Benson – best known for her portrayal of Hanna Marin in ABC’s Pretty Little Liars – appeared in the video too. The couple is in self-isolation in Los Angeles, and they were recently spotted taking a walk together to get a break from being home all day.

Also in the video were Kristen Wiig, Jamie Dornan, Labrinth, James Marsden, Sarah Silverman, Eddie Benjamin, Jimmy Fallon, Natalie Portman, Zoë Kravitz, Sia, Amy Adams, Leslie Odom Jr., Pedro Pascal, Chris O’Dowd, Dawn O’Porter, Will Ferrell, Mark Ruffalo, Norah Jones, Kaia Gerber, Annie Mumolo, and Maya Rudolph.

The video of the Italian man playing the trumpet Gadot referred to is below.
