Well... Wiig pretty much just looks like her Ghostbusters self, so no real revelation there. What I'm really interested in is what she looks like AS Cheetah. P.S. - Kat Dennings is probably one of the least attractive female actors on the MCU roster. Though I do find her more attractive than Wiig. What's wrong with Kat? Well the character's name is Cheetah, so she should have the same attributes of that animal. Cheetahs are lithe, streamlined for running, and a ferocious killing machine. Lithe means skinny, sinewy, and graceful. Kat is defiantly not that. Depending on the incarnation Cheetah has super speed, so she should be streamlined in the costume. They would have to put on a ton of spanks and ace bandages to squeeze her into a streamlined costume. And as for ferocious killing machine, Kat tends to portray a range of emotions from apathy to slightly pissed off. I would say her default emotion she gives off is a general feeling of melancholy or malaise.

In her dramatic roles you can really see she actually does have acting chops. The physicality might be her weakest attribute. I don't mean her body physically but her doing choreographed fighting scenes. I don't think I've ever seen her in a physical role so I don't know how she will be. Her actual body I would say Lithe could be a descriptor. Kat I haven't seen her be physical in a role, and physically she just doesn't fit the character.

I think I know what they are going to do. Batman Returns. She's going to be the mousy type and will become the femme fatale like Selina Kyle after her transformation. Yeah I can see that happening. They did that with Electro in The Amazing Spider-man 2 as well.

You are missing one thing Cheetah is suppose to be hot Wigg ain't Kat can't play a woman of science type, the closest she's ever and will probably ever come to doing so is as a college intern to one in the first two Thor movies - And please note that quantum physics was not her character's major political science was. She'd be as convincing as Denise Richards as a nuclear physicist - which actually happened in a James Bond movie (The World Is Not Enough). I have to agree with everybody else in the thread - You clearly do not understand the character AT ALL. Barbara Ann is supposed to be a socially awkward, quirky and determined scientist that a lot of people dismiss as being weird but cannot argue with her academic success - She's actually the last you'd expect to be posing for magazines. Kat can't play that, but Wiig can and the still shared in this thread perfectly captures who she is supposed to be before becoming Cheetah. I don't know what stories you've read with the character but much more recent ones do not make her out to be "hot", she's made out to be a vicious, disturbed, wild animal who is not easy to be reasoned with. It's a Jekyll and Hyde scenario. Have you read anything from "rebirth"?

But it would have been worse if it was Kat Dennings.

Skaathar I agree. The only reason I can think of (and it's a stretch since we know WB suck at thinking) is that they wanted a villain like Cate Blanchett's Hela. Since she was intimidating but also snarky too, they probably wanted something like that by casting Wiig. Honestly with that in mind, Uma Thurman would have been perfect.

My theory is that DC is just trying too hard to break away from stereotypes. Superman is a goody-two-shoes boyscout? Here's angry emoti-Cavill. Batman has strict morals and a no-kill rule? Here's murdering Batfleck. Lex Luthor is this powerful, brilliant, suave businessman? You get jittery Eisenberg. Cheetah is this lithe, dangerous but sexy, semi-deranged woman in fur? You get Wiig. I mean, sometimes it works. Gadot was great as WW and Momoa as Aquaman looks promising. But the DCEU still has a pretty bad track record when it comes to the direction it takes its characters, and Wiig isn't alleviating my fears. I just hope I'm proven wrong.

To be fair, I've never seen a version of Cheetah that was outright ugly or unshapely.

You were saying? Depending on the version of her you can go from grotesque to somewhat attractive if you are into that type of thing Even in her most attractive version, she is still lithe and sleek like a cat. There is nothing to Kat that portrays sleek, lithe and feline. I guess she probably could pull of Poison Ivy if they went with the Mother Nature style. Mother's being blessed with curves. I mean nothing says a mother like large breasts and wide hips.

There are a few grotesque versions, but usually still feminine. Cheetah needs to be long legged, lithe, sleek and cat like. That is about the exact opposite of Kat Dennings
