Christine was a great character and I don't have a problem at all with how Rachel McAdams played it, I think she did a great job! However I only issue I have with her is that I feel like the big ruthless boss of a big company should be tad older, I think it would have given her influence over Isabelle a bit more weight too! However I loved McAadams BUT if you were going to recast Christine as an older woman who would you cast?
I think the role just screams Sharon Stone!
Or Charlize Theron!
Someone with that sex appeal and coldness!
Who do we think could have been cast?

Jane Fonda. She's still sexy as hell.

I would have chosen Kristin Scott Thomas even if she was in the movie ''Crime d'amour'' who Passion is a remake of. She was perfect in this role of the boss. Just love her she can be enough evil in both french and english language!

Maybe Charlotte Rampling. She oozes venom, ice and sex even today.

Julianne Moore. She has a great inter-generational lesbian sex scene with Amanda Seyfried in "Chloe", and I think she could have brought some inter-generational lesbian appeal to this movie. I didn't think the two women should have been the same age like they are here.

Vera Farmiga would have been interesting, or Catherine Zeta-Jones.

You just blew my mind with Farmiga, that's my choice now.

Omg I never even thought of Vera Farigma! Forget any other suggestions, that's the one! We've found a legitimate answer to a rethorical question!
Agh! De Palma why did you overlook this!

Didn't Sigourney Weaver already play this part in Working Girl? Just asking.
