Vanessa Hudgens to play a Prostitute in Sucker Punch

Vanessa Hudgens appears to be eager to shed her clean teen image on screen for something a little more racy, and with the minor scandle of Hudgen’s nude photos showing up online, she still cant shake her adorable pretty singer image.

Well maybe a 50s brothel whore would be a good role to shake it up? And that’s exactly what she’s going to be playing in Sucker Punch for WB.

Dark Horizons quotes Hudgens

“I’m playing a character named Blondie and it’s set in a brothel in the 1950s, so there’s not a whole lot of clothes. I think this is my time to really step it up and get to grow up. It will be somewhat different with the content and a few more foul words, but that’s the biggest difference”

Now other squeaky clean stars of the small screen who have found themselves trapped in their cutesy innocent typecast roles have attempted this forced recognition of them as a mature actor, but it rarely works out.

The first that comes to mind is Elizabeth Berkley who played the brainy tall Jesse Spano on Saved By the Bell. She wanted to shed her clean image and went head first into a major film role as a trashy prostitute dancer turned Vegas headliner in Showgirls, and while it did shatter our image of her as the straight laced braniac from TV, it didn’t exactly catapult her into fame.

Now I am as willing as any to see a 50s style prostitute at a brothel, and I think Vanessa Hudgens is pretty enough, but she might have been better off if she got into Twilight instead of going from cutesy kiddo to cooter shooter in one big bang.
