Justice League Movie Recast: 10 Fantasy Castings
8. Jennifer Lawrence As Supergirl
To put it bluntly, to get a rebooted Justice League film off the ground you’ll need bankable stars a plenty so why not kick off with one of Hollywood’s most bankable stars.
Again, to put it bluntly, current TV Supergirl Melissa Benoist is pretty good but I doubt she’d be able to keep pace with the other members of the Justice League. So let her keep on being great in the TV show and cast someone else as the big budget version. They’ve already done it with Superman and The Flash after all.
So bring in Jennifer Lawrence. She’s an award winner so could hold her own in the presence of other big name actors but also kick ass when required without being to put off by heavy use of CGI. Business wise it could be a very good move outside of her name being on the poster. Having reached the end of her X Men and Hunger Games commitments Lawrence might be open to some more franchise work, after all she’d only be signing on as a side character in a couple of ensemble films.
