Thought: About Rodriguez’s “Predators” reboot, could Rose McGowan land the leading role?

I’ve been thinking about Robert Rodriguez’s reboot of “Predators” that’s just been announced. I’m sure everyone is wanting a big mean tough guy to land the leading role, but I think this is going to get a female lead. Don’t be surprised if Rose McGowan, (who is Rodriguez’s real life girlfriend) to land the leading role in “Predators”, the female star could battle these alien creatures herself.

After all, “Alien vs. Predator 1 and 2” both have a female lead and this new “Predators” will probably get the same thing.

Don’t immediately assume that Rodriguez will sign a tough male actor for this one ’cause I’m pretty sure he’s got Rose McGowan in mind. I’m betting your money that McGowan will get this.

Edit to add: On a side note, I just learned after I posted this that Robert Rodriguez is NOT directing and NOT writing the script, he’s only producing. Still though, Rodriguez could reccomend the film crew to get Rose McGowan as the female lead, just like he did with the “Red Sonja” remake.

See the article on it here:

Report: Red Sonja official movie poster revealed at Comic Con…

The poster above for the “Red Sonja” remake which stars Rose McGowan has been revealed at this year’s Comic Con movie festival. Both Rose and Robert Rodriguez were there at Comic Con in person to discuss the film and reveal a few surprising things. Rose says she’s getting excited and thrilled about the remake and Robert says he’s always been a fan of the Red Sonja comics.

It could actually be a great flick if made right. To be honest, I never really liked the original Red Sonja movie that starred Briggitte Nielsen and Arnold. I hope they make this one a lot better.

Report: Robert Rodriguez and Rose McGowan in for “Red Sonja” remake…

Robert Rodriguez had been confirmed to direct and actress Rose McGowan has been confirmed to star the leading character in the upcoming remake of “Red Sonja”. “Red Sonja” is the remake of a 1985 fantasy film that starred Brigitte Nielsen and Arnold Schwarzenegger. Rose McGowan herself was the one that wanted the film made because she loved the script too much that she handed it over to her longtime husband Robert Rodriguez. The film makers plan to get it released sometime in 2010.

I wonder who will get the role of Arnold’s character Kalidor? Could it even be Arnold himself? Will Arnold reprise that character again? Who knows, Arnold maybe done being governor by the time filming starts production so it could be possible that Rodriguez would want him.
