Brit for Star Wars Episode VII?

Not sure if Brit would want to be cast in something so mainstream, but I think she would be a perfect fit. Her charismatic/scary turn in "Sound of My Voice" made me believe her character might've really been from the future. Imagine her pulling the old Jedi mind trick. She would even be the right age/look to be Luke Skywalker's daughter.

Either way, I think Brit is on the verge of super-stardom. She's too talented and beautiful for it to not happen.

She should also write the sceenplay.

Agreed. She has a fresh approach to writing science fiction.

She would excel in Star Wars, Avengers and other Matrix or X-Men type movies. If only she would accept those roles and stop concentrating 100% on indie limited release films which are poorly advertised and few people are able to see. She turned down the lead female role in a superhero film last summer because she felt "it's not me." She's clearly destined for super stardom if she would just choose wisely as Yoda would advise!

Do you know which superhero film she turned down?

W.H.L.B.W.F.T.S.O.O.H.
Proud Lana fanboy!

The Amazing Spider Man last summer. Emma Stone ended up with the role.

Glad she turned that one down. She's too awesome to just be the girlfriend to the superhero. She needs to be the superhero. Having said that, I can totally see her as Supergirl- if they allow Supergirl to be a 20 something, not teen.

Either that, or Luke Skywalker's Jedi daughter.
