She should play either Circe or Medea in a greek mythology movie


Based on her acting skills she would rock as Circe and Medea, i want her as Medea, i think Carice Van Houten should play Circe.

HELL.YES.!

BOTH of these are roles I've desired to see Green play, SO badly. Both are on a list of top roles I had in mind for her, with Medea actually being all the way up at #3 ^^

So yeah, I like the way you think ;)

I think considering her emotional range she would be better suited for Medea.

I really hope Eva plays Catwoman in one of these DC movies.

I agree. Circe is indeed a fitting role for her, too, but Medea > Circe in my book too.

For Circe, she'd be good if they maybe made a movie that is more so about Odysseus/the Odyssey (the long overdue sequel to "Troy", perhaps?); but for Medea, that could be a movie ABOUT said character, hence starring Green.

I vote for Circe

I hope they stop making movies about Hercules and Troy, overrated mythology arcs that are lame.

I find Carice Van Houten perfect for Circe, she's magnificent playing a manipulative sorceress in Game of thrones, if not Carice then Elizabeth Hurley, i think Circe should appear in a movie with a big role, some flashbacks of her turning Scylla into a monster out of jealously.

I agree, Medea should star her project alone though the movie should end with her fate ambigous (escaping after killing her son).

I imagine Green playing Medea, she would likely won an academy award if she was nominated, she has a great emotional range.

I also think Medea's movie should show flashbacks of her childhood and her relationship with Circe, her aunt.

Understandable. I love sword and sandal films in general, but yes, those two topics have been covered quite heavily now.

Carice is a great choice for Circe, based on what I saw of her in "Black Death", and what I know of her from GoT (haven't watched the show yet) :D

Glad we agree on this ^^

My dream role for her is Jocasta in an adaptation of "Oedipus".

She already had a role up that alley in 'Womb'
