Cast Gugu as Huntress and MEW as Black Canary. You're welcome, WB. I don't need any repayment. Just promise to hire me when this thing crosses half a billion and we good.

'Birds Of Prey' Movie Filming Start Date, Gets A Fitting Working Title

Awesome to hear this. I love the working title lol. It’s finally happening!

 

[Boom]

Give me Gugu.

Gugu's up for Canary and MEW for Huntress.

 

[Iceman]

I’m really excited to see these characters. Hope they get the costumes right.

I'll allow it!

Bond 25 has snagged the slot (Valentine's Day 2020) which has been speculated for BoP.

I think both can co-exist (BoP in particular will benefit more from the extended 4 day weekend) and make good money but I still wonder if BoP will move from there.

They could release it the weekend before Bond and get insane legs on the 2nd extended weekend?

Just use Vixen for crying out loud. If they are that desperate to have a diverse cast then for christ sake just use a character to suit it. It's Birds of Prey in name only anyway, so you may as well just make a custom team up.

I'm fine with this, either way, but part of me can't shake how great they would be as Vixen and Oracle.

I think WB/ DC has something against blondes lol. Flash, Aquaman, and now Canary.

Mind you Black Canary's been known to wear a blonde wig - so no problem there!

Waiting for the manips and fanart.

 

[DarthSkywalker]

MEW and Gugu please.

Aw. Really like Boutella based on what I've seen Kingsman and the Mummy. Great physical actor.

Any of Gugu, MEW or Boutella would be great. Don't care about the specifics in who they'd be playing.

 

[Greenlite]

Maybe next round next week

From the THR article:

Another role to be filled is that of Cassandra Cain. In the comics, Cain is a woman who functions as a mute and socially maladjusted assassin and who was, at one time, Batgirl. The studio is seeking to remold the character as a 12-year-old and is looking for an Asian actress for the part.

Maybe next round next week

From the THR article:

There are other potential actors for the roles, but Warners is said to be moving quickly, with decisions expected to made within two weeks.

 

[dark_b]

they want a black actress for Black Canary because the word black is in the name right?

 

[Boy Scout]

It’s odd that they’re looking at black actresses for Canary when Huntress (one of them anyway) is currently a minority in the comics, but whatever floats their boats. I just hope the movie’s good.

 

[Poppy]

Both Canary and Huntress can be minorities in the movie.

 

[BMCAABY]

I really like the idea for Gugu was Canary.
I hope they make her blonde. Like how Beyonce has blonde hair. I'm sure it will look good on Gugu as it did for Beyonce. It gives the character the classic look but also makes Gugu look pretty unique.

They just have to give her the one of the hairstyle s below and i would be happy.

 

[Boy Scout]

Yup. Sure can.

Same here, I'm not all that bothered who picks up which role here.
