Nebula/Ruby to now wanting to be Poison Ivy

Guardians of the Galaxy star Karen Gillian shares an interest in playing Poison Ivy in James Gunn's DC Universe in the future.

I don't see her as Poison Ivy. Ivy should have something of Rita Hayworth about her. All Gillan's got is red hair.

You're speaking my language brother. Rita Hayworth as Gilda is basically my ideal Poison Ivy. Sultry personified.

I think Jessica Chastain is probably the best choice of the current crop of actresses. When she wore that green dress to the oscars she immediately reminded me of Poison Ivy. She looks the part and is a capable actress. She couldn't match the sexiness of a prime Rita but she'd come closer than Karen Gillan in my opinion.
