Poison Ivy Casting Thread

[jaymes_e06]

Eh honestly I have yet to be wowed by any of the people on this thread.

 

[Tg11]

Jessica Chastain and Bryce Dallas Howard seem to be the front runners for Poison Ivy just as they should be

 

[jaymes_e06]

How the only time I heard of confirmed talks was the Megan Fox debacle?

 

[Rodrigo90]

Probs all ********. Yet, she was seen with the comics, however...

 

[Kane52630]

Alexandra Breckenridge

 

[Tg11]

D

Alexandra Breckenridge

If they do go younger she would be perfect but if they go older then I say Jessica Chastain or Bryce Dallas Howard

 

[Kane52630]

She's 35...

 

[Tg11]

Then forget it she is perfect

Agreed. They're the best options/suggestions I've seen so at this point it'd kind of be criminal not to cast one of them.

 

[MadderMaximus]

My personal pick is has been Katherine Isabelle. Likely another curveball idea in my head, but I could see her in the role.

I love the idea of Alexandra Breckenridge though.

 

[Rodrigo90]

Just putting it here

 

[Kane52630]

Just throwing it out there for a young Poison Ivy... Juno Temple?

 

[Rodrigo90]

She's a little bit too weird... Whatever I see her in, it always makes me think she's off her head on something. Wouldn't make for a convincingly threatening Ivy. Harley she would've worked best as.

She was basically Holly Robinson in Rises. I'm not big on repetition from the bat world.

You don't have to cast an actress with red hair lol. Just like Penguin doesn't have to be an actor who is 5 feet tall and fat. Look at Gary Oldman as Winston Churchill. You cast based on their abilities and if they can match the temperament etc of the character. As long as it's not a freakish difference in height or weight or age, then you really don't have to find an actor who is in shape with a square jaw for batman. Or a guy who has a wide smile like the Joker, or a red head for Ivy. Be realistic, don't do the typical fanboy fancast who don't have a clue about how real casting works. Not that they won't cast a red head, but it's not necessary.

 

[Kane52630]

My apologies Mr. shauner.... how about Daniel Day-Lewis as Ivy?

 

[FatRobin]

Too hawt.

Retired. Otherwise he'd be the sexiest of them all.

LOL, I take it you’ve seen Killer Joe?

I love Katherine Isabelle, but I'm not sure if I could buy her as Poison Ivy. Of course, she is talented enough that if she got the role she could likely sway my mind.

 

[Babillygunn]

I’ve never eaten fried chicken again since I saw that movie

 

[Kane52630]

 

[KevTravels]

Chastain would be best.

or Evan Rachel-Wood or Bryce Dallas Howard

All worthy options

 

[regwec]

I'm trying to think which factor links each of those three actresses, but I can't be certain.

Surely it can't be anything as superficial and irrelevant as their each having red hair?

 

[Greens]

She looked so good in that role.

 

[MadderMaximus]

She looked so good in that role.

Mhmmm

The more I think about her, the more I want her

...uh...in the role.
