In wild speculation Golden Apple Comics in LA had a surprise visit from Katee Sackhoff attempting to buy them out of every Typhoid Mary comic in their stock.
She said it was “for a role” so we don’t know if she is courting to play Typhoid Mary, or a character like her Tie this in with rumours that Marvel wants to Reboot Daredevil, and the rumour mill hits the ground running.
The actress rumored to be playing this character is BSG’s Katee Sackhoff. Los Angeles-based Golden Apple Comics is reporting that Sackhoff recently came in and grabbed every comic should could find featuring Typhoid Mary.
“So we got a little visit in our comic shop last week by Katee Sackhoff, also known as Starbuck for her role on BSG. She proceeded to grab all the Typhoid Mary comics we had and has hopes to get a part for a marvel movie…”
Now I haven’t heard anything about a Typhoid Mary movie adaptation coming out, but this may well be the best hint we get that Marvel is moving forward with its latest swipes at Rebooting its less popular films.
We just got a new Hulk film a short time after the last one was less than well recieved by the fans, and now they may be turning their eye to rejuvinate Daredevil. I actually liked the Daredevil film.
I think it would be a smart move to avoid the Elektra character for now, as the bad taste of the spinoff is still in our mouths. But if they are going to reboot Daredevil, this would be the way to go. Typhoid Mary has served as both an adversary and lover to Daredevil.
Mary is damaged goods, which we know Sackhoff is good at playing, but she is also a trained assassin and we know Sackhoff can kick some ass. I’d like to see Sackhoff playing some more feminine roles that also play to her believable physical strengths.
I don’t need another 80lb Barbie Doll playing a warrior woman.
