Robert Rodriguez is going full hovermobile ahead with his live-action Jetsons movie. Which means we could be just a year away from seeing Judy Jetson live and in the flesh. So let’s talk our dream white-wig casting.
In an interview with MTV Robert Rodriguez revealed that they’re writing the script right now and hoping to begin filming next year. So let’s get started: who’s gonna be the most beloved cartoon girl of the future, with the white hair? Here’s what I would like to see.
Rachel Bilson
Why She’s Our Space Girlfriend: Look at that innocent face and doe-eyes. Bilson knows how to work it sweet and innocent like no other.
Why She’s So 20th Century: Slightly dated actor, so she may not get the part. She may be over the whole high-schooler thing as well.
Elisha Cuthbert
Why She’s Our Space Girlfriend: She really looks the part.
Why She’s So 20th Century: Elisha you’re great, but the acting… well, it’s not our favorite thing about you.
Alison Lohman
Why She’s Our Space Girlfriend: Full package: looks, youth, acting chops — remember her adorable face in Matchstick Men? she can play any age.
Why She’s So 20th Century: I really don’t have a problem with her as Judy at all, but she may be a tiny bit too old. On the other hand, this is Hollywood.
Selena Gomez:
Why She’s Our Space Girlfriend: This is the most likely of the selections: she’ll bring in the tweens and teens, plus she’s massive pop fodder and is super adorable.
Why She’s So 20th Century: She may be too young. I can’t imagine a lot of 20 and 30-somethings getting excited about a character from their past being brought to life by someone they don’t really know.
