...who should play her?
Published on January 6, 2012 By Rightwinger In Movies & TV & Books

I recently heard another tidbit about the possibility of DC, in the wake of Marvel's successful "X-Men" and "Fantastic Four" movies, and in dread of "The Avengers", maybe pulling together the threads from which to weave a cohesive plot and production of "Justice League".

The Justice League consists of Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Flash, Green Lantern, Hawkman, Hawk Girl and J'onn J'onzz, the "Martian Manhunter, among others. Of these, only Supes, Bats, and GL have seen their own flicks. Wonder Woman is, of course, supposedly on her way to a theater near you, sometime in 2015.

Now, my question to all my fellow nerds out there in JU land...who should play Black Canary?

My vote, hingeing, of course, on whether or not she can act, might be cast for British model Michelle Marsh. Sexy, beautiful...well-ahem--put together. Physically, she'd be perfect. Another possibility for me could be Kaley Cuoco, "Penny", of "Big Bang Theory" fame, or even Kat Dennings, of "Thor" and, most recently, "2 Broke Girls".

Anybody else care to weigh in?

Obviously Kristen Belle is the prime choice for Black Canary. She would rock that part, but there is no reason to have her in a JL movie until they do the expanded story. 

 

Kaley Cuoco is a terrible actress and she plays one on TV. 

 

But it is pretty much pointless until they reboot Bats, Sup, GL, and Wonderwoman (Kicking Joss of the project is the Firefly mistake all over again). 

After they get a solid line on those characters, then maybe they could think about a JL project. 

 

Avengers is going to be the best superhero movie for the next decade. I wouldn't be surprised if it paves the way for all of that to actually happen.
