The Expendabelles - Expendables female cast spinoff
 

Okay, I'm only using the Expendables as an example in that it is a movie with a who's who of male action stars from both the past and present. I'm wondering what kind of female cast would make a movie that is somewhat of an equivalent. Feel free to contribute your own wishlists.

My cast in no real order:

Demi Moore
Sharon Stone
Scarlett Johannsen
Megan Fox
Gena Carano
Eliza Dushku
Zoe Saldana
Ashley Judd
Natalie Portman

Maybe an Amy Acker bit part for good measure and Hayden Pantierre cameo

Chloe Moretz
Uma Thurman

as an all out ass kicking movie? That was kind of already made (although poorly and as a waste of time) as Bitch Slap.

Re: The Expendables with female stars:who would you cast?
 

Tura Satana

Re: The Expendables with female stars:who would you cast?
 

Pretty much, but with major stars.

Re: The Expendables with female stars:who would you cast?
 

The Expendables is mostly action stars from the '80s and early '90s so...

Pam Grier
Sharon Stone
Rachel Ticotin
Tia Carrere
Michelle Yeoh

But there are three "current generation" action stars thus...

Stacey Keibler
Angelina Jolie
Gina Carano

Stacey Keibler? Action star? rotfl

Re: The Expendables with female stars:who would you cast?

Sybil Danning
Pam Grier
Sigourney Weaver

YEAH!


I'd add Leah Remini... I know, not an action star, but I'd love to see her kick some butt.


Maybe Lucy Lawless too.

Re: The Expendables with female stars:who would you cast?
 

Angelina Jolie
Jennifer Garner
Lucy Liu
Uma Thurman
Milla Jovovich (how did I forget her??)

Re: The Expendables with female stars:who would you cast?
 

Milla Jovovich
Taraji P Henson and Alicia Keyes (in their roles from Smoking Aces)
Uma Thurman
Zoe Bell
Zoe Saldana

Re: The Expendables with female stars:who would you cast?
 

I thought this thread was started by Ash Ketchum when I opened this.

No matter what....it'd have to have Michelle Yeoh. She can act and really kick your ass. She's probably one of the few women alive and still (semi) young enough to challenge Jackie Chan's feats. Watch Police Story 3: Supercop. Just...amazing action from her. Yes, Madam as well is pretty badass.

Sanaa Lathan was the reason I liked any of Alien vs. Predator. Surprised that, unless I missed it, nobody mentioned Naomi Watts.

Also:
Patricia Arquette
Cate Blanchett
Elisha Cuthbert
Gina Gershon
Frances MacDormand
Rene Russo
Elisabeth Shue

I read a quote once where Chloe Sevigny lamented she had never been offered an action movie either. She gets my approval.

Re: The Expendables with female stars:who would you cast?
 

I would add:

Ellen Page
Carey Mulligan

I think both would look pretty awesome in fatigues and cradling automatic weapons.


And how could you guys all leave out Zhang Ziyi?

Re: The Expendables with female stars:who would you cast?
 

Like that people are giving this thread consideration.

Re: The Expendables with female stars:who would you cast?
 

Skip, you may wanna put NSFW before that spolier so people don't open it at work

Re: The Expendables with female stars:who would you cast?
 

Too late but opened at home.

Re: The Expendables with female stars:who would you cast?
 

Linda Hamilton
Anna Torv
Katie Sackoff
Michelle Forbes
Eliza Dushku

Re: The Expendables with female stars:who would you cast?
 

If we're using five contemporary stars as the primary leads and, say, three others in assorted roles ...


Kate Beckinsale in Underworld mode:


Natalie Mendoza from The Descent:


Carla Gugino as a gun-wielding technology geek:


Zhang Ziyi in the "Jet Li" role:


And, well, we could throw KB V.2 Uma Thurman in as a sensei/mentor cameo-style character that teaches advanced techniques.

I'd love to see Linda Fiorentino as a villain:


... with Natalie Portman as her assassin-type character, a good/evil conflicted semi-heroine:


And maybe Summer Glau as her secondary henchman, who stays "evil":
