Gal Gadot Says She's 'Frightened' by Antisemitism, Praises Skydance Co-CEO Ynon Kreiz's 'Beacon of Light' Leadership

Gal Gadot said leaders must speak out as the Simon Wiesenthal Center raised $4.3 million last year and honored executives for opposing hatred.

  • On Wednesday, actress Gal Gadot, Skydance Chairman and Co-CEO David Ellison, and producer Jeffrey Katzenberg presented Skydance Co-CEO Ynon Kreiz with the Simon Wiesenthal Center's 2026 Humanitarian Award at the Beverly Wilshire gala.
  • Ellison, who recently completed Skydance's controversial $110 billion acquisition of Warner Bros. Discovery, praised Kreiz as a leader who "rolls up his sleeves" to get things done.
  • Gadot, who will executive produce an adaptation of "Don't Feed the Lion," urged the audience to keep "shining your light" to combat rising antisemitism since October 7, 2023.
  • Kreiz thanked Ellison for his "bold stand for Israel and the Jewish people," stating that disagreement with Israeli government policies "cannot become an excuse for the hatred of Jews."
  • The gala also recognized journalist Bianna Golodryga with the Jewish Heritage Award and Iranian advocate Elica Le Bon with the Medal of Valor for their humanitarian contributions.
