Police detained five individuals on Wednesday during a protest linked to Gal Gadot’s latest film shoot in central London, citing offences including harassment and obstruction of workplace access.
Five people were taken into custody on Wednesday during a protest outside a film production in Westminster, where Israeli actress Gal Gadot is currently working on the action film The Runner.
The Metropolitan Police stated that those arrested are suspected of harassment and of breaching Section 241 of the Trade Union and Labour Relations Act, which addresses the unlawful prevention of access to a workplace.
According to officers, two arrests were related to previous demonstrations, while the remaining three were in response to alleged offences committed on the day.
Authorities believe the protest was organised in response to Gadot’s involvement in the film, given her Israeli nationality. Gadot, best known for her roles in Wonder Woman and Fast & Furious, has publicly expressed support for Israel in the past, drawing criticism from some activist groups.
Superintendent Neil Holyoak commented that while peaceful demonstrations are permitted, the police have a responsibility to act when protests turn disruptive or illegal.
He noted that the force had been in contact with the production team to assess the effects of the protest on filming and on those involved in the project.
Despite the disruptions, production on The Runner is ongoing, with Gadot seen on set.
