Man, the Judge armor weighs more than she does.
Like Judge Dredd? Like pretty ladies? Then have I got news for you! Looks like
Olivia Thirlby has joined the cast of the upcoming
Judge Dredd reboot; according to Variety, she'll be playing "a telepathic rookie who shadows Dredd.” You'll probably know Thirlby best as Juno's witty best friend in
Juno, although she's apparently been doing a lot of indie work over the last few years. She'll also be co-starring with
Emile Hirsch in the upcoming alien-invasion thriller
The Darkest Hour, so it looks like she might have a hankering for sci-fi (or, at least, recognizes that it's a good path to a large fanbase for a young, attractive actress).
Hey, if
Diane Lane can pull off being a Judge, then there's no reason that Thirlby can't - it's just kind of amusing that the Judge armor probably weighs more than she does. What do you think she's packing, 80 pounds? 90, tops? I'm going to go ahead and bet that her telepathic powers allow her to see a second into the future and thus gain the upper hand in combat, or some such. But what do you think? Does Judge Dredd even need a sidekick? Is this an upgrade over
Rob Schneider?
Indeed.
On-topic: Olivia is cute as fuck. That's on-topic right? Also, does anybody else think she kinda looks like Jenna Haze?
Yes you can.
It's Anderson you can't have without the Dark Judges.
And they (Dark Judges) won't be in this movie, the villain is someone named ''MA-MA''
And with this movie getting a HARD R rating (thus limiting merchandise opportunities & how many buts fill those theater seats) I wouldn't expect a sequel anytime soon :(
PS. Love it how most of the comments are about looks, and nothing to do with the article. :P
DROKK!
This isn't a REMAKE anymore then Batman Begins was a remake of the 1989 Batman movie!
This is a ''supposedly'' more faithful adaptation of the Dredd comic series.
This has nothing to do with that egotistical Stallone movie called ''DREDD''.
Regardless, that was one of the most clever romantic short stories I've seen, in my recent memory at least..
....hmm. Interesting. I would have thought that the whole 'Dark Judges' would just confuse the crap out of those who don't know the background.
I also approve of Olivia Thirlby's lips.
