Milla Jovovich expresses interest in playing Cheetara in a ThunderCats movie

January 9, 2017 by Robert Kojder

Milla Jovovich is currently doing the interview rounds for Resident Evil: The Final Chapter where she was asked by We Got This Covered which superhero she would love to play.

The actress quickly directed the conversation to the stuck-in-development hell ThunderCats movie, enthusiastically expressing interest in playing Cheetara, but not before admitting she might be getting a little too old to play a superhero.

“I’ve always loved ThunderCats. I heard they were making a movie, and then they weren’t making a movie. And I’m probably getting way to old to play Katra… no, Cheetara, that’s the one!”

Picking up immediately after the events in Resident Evil: Retribution, humanity is on its last legs after Alice is betrayed by Wesker in Washington D.C. As the only survivor of what was meant to be humanity’s final stand against the undead hordes, Alice must return to where the nightmare began – Raccoon City, where the Umbrella Corporation is gathering its forces for a final strike against the only remaining survivors of the apocalypse. In a race against time Alice will join forces with old friends, and an unlikely ally, in an action packed battle with undead hordes and new mutant monsters. Between losing her superhuman abilities and Umbrella’s impending attack, this will be Alice’s most difficult adventure as she fights to save humanity, which is on the brink of oblivion.

Resident Evil: The Final Chapter is directed by Paul W.S Anderson (Resident Evil) and set for release on January 27th in the States and on February 3rd in the UK.. Milla Jovovich is once again joined in the cast by franchise veterans regulars Ali Larter (Resident Evil: Afterlife) as Claire Redfield, Iain Glen (Resident Evil: Extinction) as Dr. Alexander Isaacs, Shawn Roberts (Resident Evil: Afterlife) as Albert Wesker, Wentworth Miller (Resident Evil: Extinction) as Chris Redfield and Spencer Locke (Resident Evil: Afterlife) as K-Mart along with newcomers Ruby Rose (Orange is the New Black) as Abigail, Eoin Macken (Merlin) as Doc, William Levy (Addicted) as Christian, Fraser James (Law & Order: UK) as Michael and Rola, a Japanese model and TV personality, as Cobalt.
