Casting a DC bombshells movie

[Silvermoth]

Hi, I adore the DC bombshells and I would love to see it adapted. Who would you cast? Here's mine

Amanda Waller - Octavia Spencer
Mera - Amy Adams
Stargirl - Katia Elizarova
Supergirl - Svetlana Khodchenkova
Batwoman - Evan Rachel Wood
Wonder Woman- no idea, but someone Greek

 

[Scarlet Spider]

Ironically enough, our very own Margot Robbie as Harley Quinn!

Margot is the very definition of a classic Hollywood bombshell and of course, she's pitch perfect as Harley.

I solicited some casting ideas for a "Bombshells" movie a while back in the "Cast the DC universe" thread and it went overlooked.

The key thing, I think, with casting a "Bombshells" movie is to get the aesthetic down. You need very curvy women to fulfill that whole 1940s/50s pinup ideal. I'm thinking of women like Katy Perry (obviously not her--but someone who can act) and Bryce Dallas Howard.

I also would like to see Krysten Ritter as Zatanna

 

[Miss Lois Lane]

I would love a Bombshells movie! I think it's possible that we'll get an animated version, but a girl can dream, so if we get a live action version I'd keep all the current actresses and add Gemma Arterton as Zatanna and Christina Hendricks as Ivy...

 

[Osiris-Rex]

Who would be Selina Kyle?

 

[Silvermoth]

Emily Blunt?

I've changed my mind, Isla Fisher for Mera (ironic last name) and Jamie dornan as Aquaman

 

[Ultimate Movie-Man]

Karen Gillan as Batwoman IMO

I love Isla but isn't she a bit short for Mera ?

No, height doesn't matter. It's literally the easiest thing to fake in movies

Hmm, I was thinking of giving this a go and try to cast actresses whom I thought had a "classic Hollywood" fell to them or at least the look.

Here's what I came up with -

Diana - Paz Vega
Selina - Thandie Newton
Mera - Gugu Mbatha-Raw
Zatanna - Alicia Vikander

Margot is pretty perfect for what I'm going for so I'll keep her as Ivy.

Chastain as Kate Kane.

Amanda Waller - Oprah
Mera - Kathryn Winnick
Stargirl - Amanda Seyfried
Supergirl - Aly Michalka or Sarah Gadon
Batwoman - Elisha Cuthbert
Wonder Woman- Hayley Atwell or Tonia Sotiropoulou

Ivy- Eva Green
Talia Al Ghul- Priyanka Chopra
Catwoman- Abbie Cornish
Harley Quinn- Aly Michalka
Zatanna- Melissa Fumero or Natalie Martinez
Batgirl-Elizabeth Gillies

Oprah as Amanda Waller is genius! At first I wasn't sure but the more I think about it the more I like it

True. Scarlett Johansson is only 5'3" and makes a perfectly fine Black Widow. Anyway she seems a lot larger in action.

Lets not forget...

Stephanie Hunt - Catwoman

Stephanie Hunt - Catwoman

You're going to milk that to irrelevance
