Minus one point for not making the thread title backwards

If she actually wears the costume, I’m down for it.

Was a rumor of Emila Clarke up for there role round last July.. Don't know if that rumor is worth anything now with a new writer..

I'm unsure myself.. Id rather Alexandra Daddario... But id watch Alex read the phonebook..

The girl who played her in Smallville was perfect. Just use her again

Howabout a little more celebratin' and a little less objectificatin'?

Doubt it. If anything it'll probably be more like

No love for the seventies costume?

In modern continuity she still has her stage clothes, but she mainly wears the clothes in the cap above.

 

[valkyrie013]

I agree, maybe if she's on stage doing her magician act, do the stage clothes, but on her adventures do the new pants, coat outfit.. Whatever the actress is comfortable with/in
This and Constantine seems to indicate a Justice League Dark movie maybe coming sooner or later, which I would love. Though there replacing Matt which irritates me intensely!!

SO, done a quick search on who could play her, In no particular order
Alexandria Daddario
Ana De Armas ( her star is rising so maybe out of there price range)
Emilia Clarke
Those 3 seem to be the top picks, here's some more that I found that would be interesting
Jessica De Gouw ( Huntress on Arrow)
Eva Green
Kate Mcgrath ( Lena from Supergirl..)
Anna Popplewell ( From Narnia)
Odeya Rush (Isreali)
Emily Rudd
Alice Dufour (French)

Making Zatanna English would be an interesting touch, especially if she and Constantine share a background. As for the actress, I hope the casting department looks for somebody who projects grit and determination--who looks like they can command the forces of magic and face down demons, while still being able to adopt a stage--rather than just finding star power and looks. Somebody who can act and hold their own against whomever is cast as Constantine.

I've like the character in the other stuff I've seen her in some, and Emerald Fennell's stuff seems to be pretty well liked, so I'm very interested.
