3. Marion Cotillard

miranda-tate-is-talia-al-ghul-and-shes-the-main-villain-not-bane-1Warner Bros.Marion Cotillard is probably the most obscure entry in this list, but that makes her no less talented. The French actress€™ most well-known roles to English-speaking audiences will undoubtedly be as Talia al Ghul in The Dark Knight Rises or as Mal Cobb in Inception €“ both directed by Christopher Nolan. Miss. Cotillard€™s talents would make her an excellent choice for a femme fatale role €“ a mysterious and seductive woman who ultimately has a hidden agenda revolving around the manipulation of men. Similar to her seduction of Bruce Wayne in Dark Knight Rises, Cotillard would make an excellent character in cyberpunk or neo-noir titles like Deus Ex: Human Revolution as the owner of a shady corporation. But that's not the only role Marion could be excellent at performing. Her characters may have a small reputation as being seductresses, but when she performs the pleasant side of Talia in Dark Knight Rises, the actress appears as kind, funny and approachable. She would have to be given a digital haircut for the role, but if Ubisoft ever go ahead with a sequel to Beyond Good & Evil, Marion Cotillard would make an excellent lead as protagonist Jade.
