Frankly it’s a pretty uncreative choice but, as they say, if it ain’t broke…
The news was reported by bleedingcool.com following the report earlier this week that Margot Robbie and Suicide Squad director David Ayer are reuniting for Gotham City Sirens. The film is to focus on Gotham's most dangerous female villains, and Robbie will reprise her Suicide Squad role as Harley Quinn for the new flick.
The Gotham City Sirens comics focussed on Quinn, Catwoman and Poison Ivy, and Megan Foxx is said to be up for the latter role.
Best known for her role in Michael Bay’s Transformers movies, Fox is no stranger to superhero movies following her turn in two recent Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movies.
Fox was also allegedly once in consideration to play Catwoman in Christopher Nolan’s The Dark Knight Rises, so a lot of dots seem to be connecting here.
Uma Thurman previously brought the character of Poison Ivy to life in Batman & Robin. And let’s never speak of it again.
