10 Female DC Superheroes Who Deserve Their Own Solo Movie

2. Cassandra Cain

The Batman family contains a timeless cast of characters, and Cassandra Cain is one of the most memorable. Raised to be the ultimate fighter by her father, Cassandra grew up mute. Instead of speaking, Cassandra learned to communicate through body language and read the movements of others. This allowed her to predict her opponent’s fighting techniques, making her a force to be reckoned with.

Cassandra’s unique way of looking at the world could be explored on camera in a variety of creative ways. DC could revive the silent film genre by not having Cassandra speak at all. This might be contrasted with violent subject matter that sees her tear her way through the criminal underworld.

The film could also focus on the relationship that Cassandra has with her parents David Cain and Lady Shiva. Both could serve as villains and they could try to use Cassandra for their own ends.

In essence, a Cassandra Cain movie would be about a girl who simply wants to find her place in the world.
