RUMOR: ANDI MACK Actress Peyton Elizabeth Lee Up For The Role Of Cassie Cane In BIRDS OF PREY

@dracula - I watch Shameless and don't remember her in the show when was she on it

@MinoMininni - Well they havent confirmed who the kid was. Plus Lady Shiva is going to appear, pretty sure as an adult, so if David is in it, probably would be around her age. Plus since there is no way any versions of the robins can appear, or Barbara Gordon, it would be nice to have at least some type of representation of bruce's future adopted family. Sure its not 100% like the comics, but Gotham has always done its own thing with its interpretation of the batman mythos, and its not like its a prequel to any specific version of batman

@MinoMininni - Who knows, maybe Gotham wont use David or Cassie, could be a new take or Orphan, they did that with Firefly. Guess were just going to have to wait as see. Im still hoping for Cassie, especially since Lady Shiva is showing up. If it is an original take or Orphan it could be Martin, he was mute, and did have a few violent tendencies

@dracula - I can get on board with characters being 14, 15, but only if the actor is older. The reason why is because I find it more believable.

India Eisley played a 12 year old in Underworld: Awakening and she was 18 when they shot that, but I bought it because she looked about that age. Even if you look at her now she could pass for 16.

So hiring a baby-faced 20 year old to play a 14, 15 year old isn't out of the realm of possibility. For starters it'll make production much easier because minors aren't allowed to film scenes after a certain time and since this would be set mostly at night, it'd be wise to cast someone who you don't have to revolve the production schedule around.

Secondly a physical, athletic 20 year old playing a 14 year old kicking arse like John Wick is easier to buy than a 14 year old kicking arse like John Wick. Even if they hire a stunt double for this girl, seeing her in a normal scene and then seeing her double in fight scenes would be too hard to buy into. She's too sweet-looking, even if they grunge her up a bit, she's still a 14 year old trying her hardest to be a stone-cold killer.

@Repian - no need to change Cassandra's origin, to tie her to the court, the villain could be Lady Shiva, maybe take inspiration from the League of Shadows arc from the James Tynon run of Detective comics, with the obvious change of leaving out batman and having Cassandra start out on her mothers side, then maybe end it with her turning against Shiva and being taken in by the Birds, but not become batgirl until a solo movie

@Repian -

Gong Li as Lady Shiva

@Doomsday8888 - Probably wont get all the robins, but for sure Dick, Tim seems the least likely, since for Jason you can do Red Hood, Damian is the son of Batman. Tim is probably the best robin, and probably has the closest relationship with Batman, but not sure where they can fit him in, pretty sure they wont make a Red Robin movie, and they probably wont do Teen Titans since they have the show

@MinoMininni - Since shes younger, i say start her off as Orphan, have Lady Shiva be one of the major villains in the film, and end the film with Cassandra turning against her mother and being taken in by the Birds OF Prey, then turn her into Batgirl either in Birds Of Prey 2 or a solo batgirl film. Have Barbara/Oracle mentor her for a while and teach her to speak.
