A live-action film adaptation of the classic ’80s animated series “Thundercats” has been in and out of development for years. I’m sure one day the film will happen, but it doesn’t look like it will be made anytime soon.
If it does happen sometime in the near future, though, they have an actress who would perfectly fit as Cheetara: Milla Jovovich. It’s not hard to imagine her in the role at all, and she would kick ass as the character.
During an interview with We Got This Covered, Jovovich expressed interest in taking on the role saying:
“I’ve always loved Thundercats. I heard they were making a movie, and then they weren’t making a movie. And I’m probably getting way to old to play Katra… no, Cheetara, that’s the one!”
Too old? I don’t think so, but of course, Hollywood might think she is. They’d probably want to cast some young teen girl from one of those Disney channel series to play the character. When Hollywood does get around to making the film. I hope they make the right casting decisions.
What do you all think of Jovovich in the role of Cheetara?
