Cast this: Pick twelve wise & attractive actresses in a film about goddesses



If Hollywood was doing an all-female cast of wise & attractive actresses in a film about goddesses, which current actresses would you cast? Please notice the word wise so that the casting strays away from actresses like Kate Hudson, Kirsten Dunst, Mila Kunis, or Jessica Alba as nice as they may be. I'm sort of thinking of an all-female version of 12 Angry Men, as if it was like a 12 Wise & Attractive Goddesses chilling in the clouds, debating about mankind.

Think of the actresses you think seem really smart, are attractive, and have a very womanly queen-type presence.

Here are my picks:

OLIVIA WILLIAMS


HELEN MIRREN


CHARLIZE THERON


CONNIE NIELSEN


ROSE BYRNE


ANGELINA JOLIE


MICHELLE YEOH


RACHEL WEISZ


AISHWARYA RAI


SAFFRON BURROWS


LENA HEADEY


EVA GREEN

I agree with the OPs cast list,

though I'd personally replace Olivia Williams with Monica Bellucci



and Saffron Burrows with Lizzy Caplan, but that's mostly thanks to my recent interest in Party Down / True Blood.

I like the original list too, but I'd replace:

- Angelina Jolie and Aishwarya Rai

with:

- Cate Blanchett and Marion Cotillard

No Cate Blanchett?

She's the first and only one I think of when I hear the words "wise" (certainly not Angelina Jolie) and "attractive".

My choices would be a little different from the standard hot young actresses in Hollywood at the moment (though a few still work their way into it):

Virginia Madsen




Julia Stiles




Sophia Myles




Morena Baccarin




Salma Hayek




Peta Wilson




Parminder Nagra




Gretchen Mol




Vanessa Williams




Estella Warren




Kate Beckinsale




Sasha Alexander

OK ... this has just devolved into another "post a pic of hot actresses" thread and is missing the topic ...


.... more please.
