I was thinking last night about CC on Dexter. I thought it might be kind of funny if CC came in as someone that Rita had worked with on a previous job (cause you know the ATS fans would be giggling about that) and fell on some rough times so she moved in with Rita. Could get the real life friendship chemistry that CC and JB have on screen. Then, naturally, she gets the something ain't right about Dexter, and proceeds to stalk him to keep her friend safe. Lots of unheeded warnings to Rita, maybe enough to make herself an enemy of Dexter by ruining the perfect facade he has going.

I wanted CC on 'Bones', at one point. IMO, she would automatically have to be a love interest for Booth(because how can he NOT be attracted to her?) and I don't need crazy shippers hatin' on CC. I'd flip lol I'd definitely tune in if she ever appears, though

I'm with Deb about Dexter. Also, Livvie, your above plot sounds awesome!

I'd love to see her on 'Heroes'. Maybe, 'Lipstick Jungle'? I've never seen it, but I know Brooke Shields is on it and she plays a powerful woman on the show. Has anyone seen it?

Mad Men. She'd still be hot in 60's fashion. No CC scenes with Vincent, plz. That show is sooooo good. I think she'd have great chemistry with Jon Hamm.

That's all I got for the moment.

Gah, I could see her on so many things-

Heroes is a given. But how about she go against type and play someone from The Company? Her going bad, up against Elle and Sylar could be pretty awesome.

Samantha Who as a rival lawyer from another firm who goes up against Samantha and makes her life a living hell.

I could see her on House as a nurse who snarks on him and gives him a run for his money. They could totally have a recurring flirtation thing going on until she's in need of his services while he's working at the clinic.

Lipstick Jungle. A fashionista who works with Victory or an actress that works with Wendy.

On LOST she could play Locke's unknown daughter or somehow figure into the Dharma/Black Rock mystery.

On Supernatural she could play the widow of a hunter raising her daughters alone as she juggles trying to give them a normal life and still fight the monsters that go bump in the night.

On 24 -and this may be a stretch due to the ages- but could she play Teri's mentioned but never seen sister Carole? Or if Chloe had a brother, having Charisma play Chloe's sister-in-law who gets caught in the the events of the day would be hilarious. Especially if she and Chloe snark while Jack is trying to do his Bauer-thing.

O.M.G. One of the Supes writers...please fic this NOW!

[eric_rhapsody04]

On Batman III she could play Selina Kyles aka Catwoman !!!

[Christine]

Love the Cat woman idea. Too bad she couldn't have a chance at that. I think Hallie played her at 38, (yes I know the movie was horrible, lol) so why can't they cast Charisma. What about someone in the next Superman movie?

Unfortunately, CC doesn't have any prior experience on the big screen. It may be judged too great a
risk.

Rumor is Angelina Jolie is next up for Catwoman. Which, way to think outside the lines there, Hollywood.

Shame; I've said before and will say again, only a CC Catwoman could be competition for a Julie Newmar Catwoman.

[Livvie]

Going totally off topic here but in terms of Batman Begins and The Dark Knight, hasn't Nolan said that he will never bring in Catwoman or Robin? I know, never say never but still. He seems fairly committed to his new version of Batman.

Or are they going to spin the Catwoman franchise off by itself and try to make up for the Halle Berry disaster?

I'm not sure what the context was, I just read that Jolie was the lead contender to play Catwoman. Could have been idle speculation, I suppose. But as far as I've read, Nolan hasn't even said he wants to do another Batman movie.

[25cent]

I think he said he would never do Robin or the Penguin.

[Dathan]

It may be fantasy casting running rampant on the internet, but I've heard Angelina Jolie and Kate Beckinsale mentioned for Catwoman, and Johnny Depp for the Riddler.

It's my understanding that both Nolan and Bale have said they won't do Batman with Robin. I don't know about the Penguin, but absolutely NO Robin.

Personally, I think CC would be perfect as Poison Ivy, who I would love to see Nolan do if only to scrub my mind free of that crap Uma thurman did. They would have to put some red in CC's hair, but she's one of the few actresses in Hollywood that has the curves to pull off Ivy well. Brunettes are rare in the world of comics...they are almost all blondes or redheads.

If i would have had my say in the beginning, I think CC would have been perfect for Mary Jane in the spider-man movies. MJ is my favorite female comic book character, and CC has already proven she can portray the shallow, flirty, popular girl who is actually deep.

We know the Avengers movie is on the way...if they stick to the original story the Wasp will be a brunette, maybe she can score that part. I think she can play rich and spoiled but perky, cheerful, and heroic. If they continue modeling things after the Ultimates (ie Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury) then the Wasp will be Asian so that's out for CC.

Bottom line: CC is too beautiful and talented to not be in something. I'd really like to see her get a role in one of these big blockbuster movies that will catapult her into the spotlight.

Oh Kel you and you're geniousness. I shall play.

I would love to see CC on Bones. Although as much as I love CC/DB I would love if her character was actually somebody from Angela's past that was involved with her. Can you imagine the look on Booth's face.

I would also love to see her on Mad Men, though I'd love it if they did not put her with VK. She'd look stunning in those dresses and hairstyles.

Let's see..oh I'd love to see her on Supernatural either as another human that sold their soul to protect someone they love and is now in hell with Dean OR as someone from Dean's past. Maybe a childhood friend?

Oh, hello. Dirty. Sexy. Money. CC would be perfect on that show. Maybe as a Darling from a secret affair?

And lastly I'd love to see her on Heroes. I'd love it if she played another hero but I would be ecstatic if she played the bad guy.

Other shows I can see her on: LOST and maybe Desperate Housewives.

I thought I'd read somewhere recently that Nolan wanted Cher to play Catwoman? Which is demented and maybe a bit brilliant.

As far as dream casting for CC, here's my wish list!

(1) "Chuck" - at first I wanted to see her as a secret agent, but then I decided I wanted her to be a new klutzy computer geek employee at the store (complete with the glasses) who becomes romantically involved (in a funny, hijinks way) with Adam Baldwin's character.

(2) "Pushing Daisies" - in any capacity whatsoever. I would just love to see her on the show

(3) "The Office" - as a new HR person to replace the person who replaced Toby.

That report came from the Telegraph, which, as I understand, is one small step up from a report originating with the National Enquirer. But yeah, it would be completely unexpected and could be brilliant.

Yes. Yes, please.
