Kimmo 76,622 Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 Rihanna has proven herself a multi-tasker of epic proportions. And while much of that title relates to her entrepreneurial activity, she’s no stranger to the big screen either. Now, per a new report, Warner Brosmay be looking to gift the Bajan belle her next big role. RiRi is said to be on the studio’s internal list of names in contention to play Poison Ivy in the next Batman movie. No word on whether a formal offer has been extended to the 31-year-old, but early murmurs has made DCEU enthusiasts excited. Especially as Ms. Ivy hasn’t been present on screen since 1997. Rih’s filmography has generated varied results, with some titles fairing better (‘Oceans 8’) than others (‘Battleship’). Still, as the likes of Beyonce with ‘The Lion King’ and Lady Gaga with ‘A Star Is Born,’ there ample marketing potential in attaching a major Pop star to a flick. So, it definitely would be a great look on paper for all parties. Perhaps, just perhaps, that may bring with it the new music folk are thirsty for from Ms. Fenty too. https://thatgrapejuice.net/entertainment/2019/09/rihanna-being-courted-warner-bros-play-poison-ivy-next-batman-movie/ Hottie Detector Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
River 91,005 Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 Rihanna's acting is.. But she has the sexiness and edginess of Poison (Blue) Ivy so it can actually work. Je ne parle pas français but I can padam if you like Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inferno 2,880 Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 She'd look amazing in the part but her acting is truly, truly, truly abysmal. I love her. But no. Its not even passable. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 Bad bad idea. She wasn't too good in Bates Motel, she's not an actress imo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
weed 67,042 Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 Imagine they got pop girls for Poison, Harley, and Catwoman if only they could act. Gaga as Harley, Riri as Poison Ivy, and then hmm... Ariana as Catwoman Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr S 7,636 Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 She could pull off Poison Ivy in a Batman movie villain. There probably isn't much acting involved as most of the appeal is based on her looking sexy/exotic. She would not be able to carry a Poison Ivy movie though.

weed 67,042 Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 I think Saoirse could do a mean Poison Ivy, would make her more famous/bankable and she's super talented so would be amazing and show her versatility Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reality 65,741 Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 I'm still mad that WB decided to do Birds of Prey over Gotham City Sirens, and that they didn't get Gaga to play Poison Ivy 🃏🖤👹 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
