I don't know if I can call her a good actress or not because she has had like ten minutes of screen time across two seasons and most of those were scenes were practically "HEY I STILL EXIST!" moments.

He did the same thing on Rome with Octavian. They aged him up so they could do sex stuff. It could also be an issue where she could not do the stuff they expect out of a regular.

Uh, before they aged that character up on Rome they had him bang his own sister. They primarily aged him up so he would be credible as a soldier and military leader. As far as Ivy goes, I think they originally cast the character as a glorified cameo, and now that they've decided they want to expand the role they want an actress more capable and more credible as the traditional Poison Ivy character. Either way it doesn't really bother me, she was only on the show a few times and never particularly impressed me.

They should just replace her with Uma Thurman and when questioned by Selina about when she became so mature, just have her blame a growth spurt. No other explanation.

I would care more if this wasn't a character who had barely been in the show. Although it is kind of funny how people are complaining about recasting this character when nobody was happy with the casting in the first place.

I don't care about the recasting of the character due to the character. I care because of the shows inability to run itself the right way. It doesn't really need to be sexed up.

Maybe I missed something but the show runner says in that article that he won't necessarily be sexing up the characters the way the comics do so why is everyone jumping to the conclusion that this girl wasn't sexy enough and then blaming the show for that somehow? Unless I missed something, this is some creepy projecting going on here.

The article is taking the previous rumour/report and assuming they are talking about Poison Ivy now that she's been recast. It's possible they are talking about a new villain and not Ivy, but it kinda fits.

Unless I missed something, this is some creepy projecting going on here. I was going to post something similar. It's very possible, and likely even, that the decision to recast has less to do with what Tapeheads taught us is called "production value," and more to do with the fact that the young actress they hired to play a young Poison Ivy cameo is either not interested in or incapable (in the director's/producer's opinion) of pulling off an expanded role. And it's not like they're replacing one of the female leads in a soap opera because the character has to stick around even though the performer is leaving. As has been noted, Ivy has, what, 10 total minutes of screen time over the last two seasons? You could replace the character of "Ivy," who looks like a young Poison Ivy, with the character of "Jimmy" who has no connection to the Batman story, and you'd lose nothing. bring back old gbs posted:The article is taking the previous rumour/report and assuming they are talking about Poison Ivy now that she's been recast. It's possible they are talking about a new villain and not Ivy, but it kinda fits. And yeah, it does kind-of fit. I don't know how many sexy villainesses there are in the Batman canon, but I'd imagine there's more than one.

So are they doing a time skip or just retconning her previous age of like 12-14? I think Mazouz (Bruce) could possibly play 3-4 years older than what he is doing, but I'm not sure about Selena's actress, and I'm not sure they really ended on a note that could plausibly be time skipped.

The best way would be to just have the new actress be Pamela Isley instead of Ivy Pepper.

Jut wanted to say how much I loved the showdown between Penguin and Maroni in the cabin in season 1, the game of truth. The music is phenomenal, the way each characters theme battles alongside them as they keeps teetering on the edge of victory: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9p_KHQUwIPA

... Wait a minute. So Ivy Pepper is getting the 'Big' treatment, and the show is going to have a 19-year-old temptress seducing as 12-year-old (or whatever, I forget) Bruce? That's just a little bit skeevy...

They seriously should have just used another character and let Ivy Pepper be that weird girl who likes plants more than abusive people.

I cannot forsee a future in which this plot line doesn't get really creepy if she goes full seductress. Gordon, finding out who she is after she tries it on with him, turns on his heel and walks out. When Leslie asks him where he's going he just replies "Back to blackgate. Bye!"

I'm sort of hoping there's a time jump. The actors who play Bruce and Selina are able to be aged up a bit more easily, but the girl who played Ivy just couldn't? Also, it maybe gives them a window to just let us jump into a Gotham City that has been inundated with metacriminals for a few years and the eventual return of Jim Gordon to Gotham after a long absence.Burning_Monk posted:They seriously should have just used another character and let Ivy Pepper be that weird girl who likes plants more than abusive people. Yeah. Pamela Isley/Poison Ivy should be her own character and Ivy Pepper be Ivy Pepper. The other alternative is that Ivy Pepper sort of becomes a proto-Poison Ivy that ends up creating the Poison Ivy mythology/persona for Pamela to adopt later. Something like that when a new lady with plant powers shows up in Gotham after a few years, 'just call her 'Poison Ivy', like we did the other one.' Sort of like how Scarecrow's dad had a strange fear obsession thing that will be carried on by his son, Jerome inspired the madness of other in Gotham, etc.
