Uma should get her own spin-off as Poison Ivy. She is amazing in the role! Plus maybe she could team up with Margot Robbie as Harley Quinn like in the comics and animated shows and maybe introduce a daughter character (they could say that Robin is the father and got Ivy pregnant as a result from his intimate moment with Ivy) played by Uma’s real life daughter Maya Hawke. Maybe even get Tarantino to direct since he has worked with all the actresses.
shareUma was the perfect choice for Ivy, and it's a shame they blew it on B&R's subpar script. These days she might be a bit old to do the role. Maybe not. I guess it depends on how they wanted to play it.
shareShe’s still pretty hot today and can pull off the action roles. Plus if there are other younger actresses with her, maybe she can be more in a mentor role with her daughter as the new Poison Ivy
shareI'd be okay with her being Ivy, but it just depends on the tone they want to set.
Ivy's character isn't just attractive (Uma's still attractive), but a seductress. And there are different messages sent with that seductress character being older or younger. There's just a different vibe there. Maybe that's what they want.
For straight-up how Ivy is depicted in the comics, you'd need a younger actress (I mean, still 30s or early 40s is still potentially in the range). If they wanted a different vibe (Oedipal, maybe, or "cougar" - I really tried to think of a nicer way to describe it, but that's the fastest word) they can do what they want.
Would love to see Uma’s Ivy as a cougar!
