The Storm/Ororo Munroe Thread

Alexandra Shipp would be perfect as Storm if she hadn't played her in the X Men First Class franchise but other actresses who also can play Storm: Kiki Layne, Aja Naomi King or Anna Diop

Alexandra Shipp lacked presence as Storm.

I was listening to Angelica Ross’ podcast this morning and she was speaking to Fọlákẹ́ Olówófôyekù. I think she could be an interesting Storm. She’s very eloquent, great actress and actually from Africa (Nigerian)

She definitely exudes Storm

If you put a silver or blonde wig on her, then I can buy it

Another interesting actress I could go for as Storm or 2 of them actually would be Sonequa Martin-Green and Tika Sumpter

She’s a fabulous actress; you wouldn’t hear any complaints from me. I’d also throw out Jayme Lawson, 26 as my personal pick for Storm.

Janelle Monae is 5 feet. I wouldn't definitely cast her as Storm.

I always thought Storm was older than Jean and Scott and now I see I'm wrong. 😅

Alexandra Shipp lacked presence as Storm.

More like the script barely let her do anything in that role.

I've seen Alexandra Shipp in Barbie and Anyone But You, and she doesn't really stand out from the crowd. There are actors who don't really have a lot of dialogues in the movies they appeared, but they have that mystique that they instantly caught my eyes, that they made me want to see more of them.

I feel like if Storm is just going to be background character and if she doesn't have a lot of dialogues, she should still stand out amongst the group because she is Storm. Halle Berry in comparison, didn't have a lot to do in 4 X-Men movies but everytime she was on screen, I just wanted to see more from her. So in a way, whenever she's another movie, I kinda want to see the movie just to see her act.
