Gal Gadot — who kicked maligned socially isolated celebrity singalong rendition of “Imagine” — returns as the hero in th this follow-up to 2017s hit Wonder Woman, which p promise explosive battles as she faces off against K Kristen Wiig, 47, as supervilla­in Cheetah.

GADOT G does double duty this autumn, co-starring as a well in Death on the Nile, based on the Agatha

Christie mystery starring 59-yearold Kenneth Branagh — who also directs the film — as famed detective Hercule Poirot.

AND TO LIGHTEN the mood, Robert De Niro, 77, stars in the family comedy The War With Grandpa, in which he plays a widower who moves into his grandson’s bedroom and triggers an intergener­ational battle of pranks and one-upmanship.
