WWE Superstar Charlotte Flair Expresses An Interest In Playing The Female Version Of THOR
Wrestler and Arrow star Cody Rhodes recently put himself forward for the role of Black Bolt, but a former RAW Women's Champion has now expressed interest in playing the Jane Foster version of Thor.
Before Chris Hemsworth was cast as Thor, you may recall that wrestler Triple H was rumoured to be in line for the role of the God of Thunder. You only need to watch Blade: Trinity to be thankful that never came to pass, but there are plenty of former WWE Superstars who have proven themselves to be solid actors, with perhaps the two best known examples being Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson and John Cena.
Could Charlotte Flair be next? The daughter of the legendary Ric Flair, Charlotte expressed an interest in playing the female version of Thor during a Twitter Q&A today, and honestly, it would be a great fit should Marvel Studios ever decide to go down that route (a real possibility considering the fact that Hemsworth's contract is close to running out). Praised for her athleticism and promo skills, Charlotte has become a huge star and recently main evented a PPV inside a Hell in a Cell with Sasha Banks.
For those of you unfamiliar with the wrestler, here are some photos which prove that if nothing else, she most definitely looks the part! As always, be sure to let us know your thoughts in the usual place.
