Michelle Rodriguez has made a name for herself in the film industry by playing badasses, so it’s not really a surprise that she’d want to take on one of the biggest feminist-hero movies of all time for a remake.
The “Machete Kills” actress is rumored to be in talks to re-envision the 1991 film–which starred Susan Sarandon and Geena Davis as two best friends on the run after a violent encounter–and she’s reportedly bucking for best friend Cara Delvingne to be cast along with her.
“A few names have been mentioned as her co-star, including Kristen Stewart, Annalynne McCord and Leighton Meester – but Michelle is pushing for Cara,” a source told The Sun.
The duo made headlines last month when they attended a Knicks game and proceeded to make out and ham it up for the cameras while courtside. It’s not clear whether the ladies are a couple or just good friends, however.
