I Can Never Have Enough Danger Girls
Sit Down Before Reading This: Milla Jovovich, Kate Beckinsale, and Sofia Vergara Attached to Star in ‘Danger Girl’
After reading that headline, fans of J. Scott Campbell’s comic books series “Danger Girl” might have had their heads explode. And even people who don’t know what “Danger Girl” is are most likely now intrigued. Say what you will about the Underworld and Resident Evil series; they’re not great, but they managed to cast leading ladies so appealing that they just keep making money and getting more sequels produced anyways. And now this new action adventure tale looks to take both of those leads, Kate Beckinsale and Milla Jovovich, and have them running around in skin tight outfits together. Plus they’re going to throw in Modern Family’s buxom and charismatic Sofia Vergara for good measure. I’ve maybe never heard better news in my entire life. Does that sound misogynistic? Who cares… hot ladies shooting guns and doing high kicks! Yeah!
For the uninitiated, Danger Girl takes the James Bond concept and turns it on its head. We still get the sultry Bond girls, but this time they are the secret operatives kicking all of the ass. Danger Girl Freelance Operations Limited is kind of like the A-Team, but with hot chicks instead of grizzly old dudes and a black guy with a Mohawk. They often run afoul of a group of neo-Nazis called the Hammer Empire, and there’s even an Indiana Jones type mystical relic hunting aspect to their ongoing adventures. Basically, Danger Girl has everything.

Well, since Milla is going to be in it, my hubby will be watching!
Holy Crap! For reals?! Can. Not. Wait.
That's neat. I liked the DG series when it came out in the 90's.
man, I've got them action figures in the second picture! I picked them up dirt cheap - out of their boxes - in a boot sale years ago, before I even had a clue who or what Danger Girl was.
seriously, they get this right & it'll be comic book movie heaven, for me. Sofia for Sydney? dear God, I hope so. . .
