She would’ve still been in the background underutilized with no real character, even more so because I believe the original script for x2 showed a lot of storms lines were originally Jeans but after the Oscar win they gave some to Halle.
Angela Bassett would've been the perfect Storm back in the day - such a missed opportunity. My current no.1 choice is Jodie Turner Smith - she is a literal goddess, but unfortunately might be too mature for the role if they're looking for franchise longevity. If they're looking to cast younger, either Sibongile Mlambo, or Joy Sunday would be perfect in the role. Both have the looks, and the acting chops. Tati Gabrielle would also be perfect - she looks incredible with white hair, and has proven to be quite the action star in Uncharted (albeit as a villian).
Jodie Turner-Smith is my #1 pic for Storm. But yes, I really feel you on Dewanda and Anna Diop. Ideally I would want them to go with a relatively unknown and younger actress someone who can claim the role and make it their own but it's Hollywood so that's not really a possibility.
Imo it's more possible than you may think. The MCU isn't full of just A-listers. How many of them went from being relatively "small named" talents to household names? Hell, how many of them still ONLY have the MCU as their biggest role to this day?
no thanks. she looks too androgynous. i'm sure there are hundreds of actresses in kenya trying to break into the industry. disney just needs to go over there and pick the one they feel is best.
It definitely depends on what age they're going for and if the actor can do an accent. I LOVE that you included Anna and Janelle. They both feel like good picks--plus Janelle's involvement could give us another superhero soundtrack like "Suicide Squad (2016)" and "Black Panther."
I hope the women who play Storm has a voice range like the 97 cartoon Storm i think Storm is the mother of the earth this is why she feel everything that happens to the plant
My honorable mention from years back to play Storm if it wasn't Angela Bassett, was Nona Gaye from when I saw her in the Matrix movies. Thought she had the perfect look to play in the X-Men films over Halle Berry back then.
KiKi Layne is the only one who hits on all things that would finally make a live-action Ororo Munroe feel like a living goddess. Search KiKi Layne - Storm and a few videos on her speaking on Storm should show up here on RUclips.
Naomi Campbell was the best choice we had ever but back when they were doing this movie and chose Halle Berry back then Naomi Campbell was having a fit, throwing her phones and beating the maid in the head with the phone. Hollywood didn't want to mess with her. She was just a little too out there for them, but Naomi Campbell was our best choice. She sounds like storm. She's from Africa. She slender built like storm. Naomi Campbell best choice hands down. Nobody else could have done it better than her because they don't have the voice
I only clicked on this Vidor because I click on everything that's Storm. But I have to say I love this video. The way you clarify things you earn one more subscribers
Iman would have been perfect if Hollywood could have done the X-men justice back in the late 80s/early 90s. She could act (she was in No Way Out) she had the height, the accent, and you could just believe her as a goddess.
Jodie Turner-Smith, Naomi Campbell, Aja Naomi King, Tracy Ifeachor, Racquel Palmer and Grace Jones if she was 4 decades younger. Those are my top picks
1. JODIE - she has a supporting role aura but also has a star power in frame, her features look up to date 2. DEWANDA - she has a protagonist/main character aura, she has the Disney look 3. DAMARIS - she has the vibe and her introduction in Titans was so iconic, looks like Bassett
I am a huge Storm fan I agree with you Dewanda Wise is perfect✨🌩️⚡🌧️.Maybe Halle Berry is conventionally prettier but Angela Bassett IS more regal and she😊 conveys better a sense of confidence and strength.
I would really love to see an older version of Storm in the MCU. In the comics she is a serious motherly figure with a maturer way of thinking. I really would love to see that type of character. So someone who is older (35 or older), 5’7 or taller, who can play a serious character with some comedic abilities
nope she won’t look like storm is East African she won’t look nothing like her have you see how East African women look like they don’t look like black women u see in the state
@docdolittle5181 storm is not east African, she is African American. Storm and her parent moved to Africa from America when storm was a kids then her parents died in a accident
1. Rutina Wesley As Storm (Introduce Her In Her Own Special Presentation) 2. Damaris Lewis As Nubia 3. Keke Palmer As Kitty Pryde/Shadow Cat 4. Kiki Layne As Jo Mullein/Green Lantern 5. Michaela Coel As Big Barda 6. Anna Diop As Madame Xanadu
Was watching a clip of Aliyah (R.I.P) playing Queen Akasha yesterday, WOW! WOW!...she would have been perfection as Ororo Munroe aka Storm. Sadly thats neither here nor there.
With *Halle Berry* she were a bit TOO light to have been *STORM* but of course Hollywood always want lighter colored Black Women to play a dark-skinned/pecan-tan role of a character. Does anyone remember or seen *Liz Taylor* as Cleopatra?! ... 🙄✔️💯
My brother, For Grace Jones I would like to direct you to the classic movie of boomerang! Starring Eddie Murphy, Halle, Berry, Grace Jones, Martin Lawrence! Also- at 16:36 I saw what you did there! 😂😂
Was wanting to see Dewanda as storm since, 'She's got a Habit'. But afraid she's aged out of the role. Been pushing to see Jade Cargil get the role as my sister is her beautician and hear she is audtioning for roles so fingers 🤞🏾
I was thinking about Keisha Knight Pullman from the Cosby show, and that's if she was tall enough, but the number one on your list, I agree with you, and the girl from Chirag
Some of the women out of your 20 fan favorite choices, I'd would have picked also, however my 2 choices overall, are Aissa Maiga, who's was born in Dakar, Senegal & lives in France and is a seasoned actress, director, writer, producer, activist since 1997. Now, she's 5'6 and 49, but she looks so young for her age and could easily pass for 30. Jayme Lawson who played in The Batman, as mayor Bella Real, has presence, sex-appeal, mature character, charisma, excellent actress and her voice is so rich, earthy, strong, and articulate. She's 5'6 and 27. She'd make the Perfect, 'STORM.'
I think she would be a good choice, except for her height. She's definitely got the acting chops, she's got the beauty, and she can carry herself with the regalness that us ingrained in Storm's personality.
@@flexhenry3 Yes, Storm is brown skin - so is Zendaya. Complexion, especially in a light skinned-favoured industry, matters when casting a generational character like Storm. Storm has more the body of a gymnast or sprinter than a female body builder. Again, too muscular. If you don’t understand why Storm needs to be played by a skilled actress with depth to their talents, no point continuing this thread.
@@therealist33777 zendaya is yellow, she cant play storm at all, jade has the skintone but not the acting and is too muscular. Dewise would be the best choice.
@veedub95 Idk about WWE promos, but if you look back on her time in AEW, she was pretty good. As far as acting skills, I'm sure that she could pull it off as The M XMEN is a story featuring an ensemble cast. Hell, if Randy Orton, Cena, The Miz, and The Rock can pull it off, I'm sure that she can. Hell, you've got Bautista, Hogan and Roddy Piper that have been in movies.
Every actress who is already currently in the MCU was kinda pointless to mention and I didn't wanna see the 3 of them as Storm anyway. Your top 5 is pretty good aside from Teyonna Parrish. Other than that Tika Sumpter, Teyana Taylor n dassit
You have to tell us what the costume should be cause I Do Not trust the mcu to give her a great first appearance costume. We’ve been comic accurate which gives me hope but I need COMIC ACCURATE Storm. Giving me skin and thigh high boots. Or the all white 😭 I won’t have her on screen any other way.
There is a comic panel where Iceman said ‘…..she can flash freeze people just as fast as me….and she looks like Naomi Campbell’ to which Storm responded ‘I would remind you that she looks like me’. So she looks like Naomi people 😆
imma say this yes storm was badly written back in the day but I dont like how people put down halle berry. The women did save the character and fought for storm to have screen time in x2 and xmen the last stand. She was the first black woman to play a super hero in a superhero movie and paved the way for zoe kravitz and zoe saldana. The woman is an icon and i dont like how people just disrespect her when it comes to this topic. I know its an unpopular take but im just keeping it real
Her height shouldn't even matter look at Hugh Jackman who Jackman playing wolverine wolverine is supposed to be short Hugh Jackman is almost like 6 ft tall I don't see them saying anything about his height😮
My number one is def Jodie turner but ironically before I knew about her,dewanda wise was my top choice in high school.🤣 kiki ive never personally seen as storm but hey there are def worse options lol. Either way your top 5 was spot on for most storm Stans
Demaris Lewis...Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model and actor. I watched Titans. When she was in scenes with Anna Diop, Demaris had a regal presence of royalty even over Anna as well as the height. Just like someone commented here. Yaw sleeping on Demaris Lewis. And for the record, Storm isn't a wrestler, c'mon maaaan!!
Jodie and Anna are my top pics! Also I'm so excited to see if one day a woman from this list will get the part. So many of them want it, Janelle, Anna, Kiki layne, Jade etc
The only person's who play storm is Jade Cargill she the right height @ 5"10" very muscle-build that of her comic book counter part she is a bad ass while aew she really show off what storm should look like in live action version. Now you have to fine a person is 5 feet muscle-build very athletic to play wolverine now jade is that right person for storm I don't care about the other ten women who you think to play storm none them have storm body to play her. Have Jade play storm will be the very first actual person the right thing about the character some plays not them being 5"2" or 5"4" playing storm.
Anna and Yetide would be at the top of my list. My definitive Storm is the 90s animated version and she always struck me as being around 40, especially the way she's portrayed in the X-M 97 reboot. Lupita is off the table because Nakia was a bit too prominent in the MCU. Too bad Angela wasn't cast in the 2000 film, she was still young enough(early 40s) to pull it off then and one of the few actresses who could really capture Storm's regal demeanor. Her Queen Ramonda is actually pretty close to what she could've done as Storm
Storm hasn't ever been portrayed as being in her 40's. Also, you need a younger taller actress who will be able to play the role for the next decade. Kiki Layne hits every box.
Bruh!!! The perfect Storm was Roshumba Williams…she was in Mortal Kombat Conquest in 1998 and she had the height, the body, the attitude, the look and martial arts capability. You should research and see if any of the older cast on this list can compare. Now Damaris, Jodi, Kiki Layne was great in the old Guard, Anna Diop and Dewanda all good but Coco Jones would be Great. Coco Jones is young (26), tall (5,10"), beautiful brown skin and hella attitude. All these beautiful Queens look young enough to play Storm at the of 26 - 30 year old Storm because Black don’t crack but if Janelle is picked like rumors say…then I will not be watching and anyone I know best not watch it either..In that case I would’ve voted yes to Beyoncé. Ive been a fan of Storm for 40 years and watched how they destroyed her image in toons and that horrifying Fox BS (I do love Halle tho and that’s the only reason why I made a light fuss about it) hell, just bring Halle back. If they can have the 50’ woman play 5’0" short Jean and a gargantuan play 4’11" Wolverine then why can’t a woman of decent height play Storm, who is a Goddess. They wouldn’t let Tom Holland play Thor now would they…the MCU would be lit on fire if they did. So why let them do Storm any kind of way..the one and only Black member of the X-Men.
This is filled with so many acting credit errors and picture errors that I just had to stop watching it unfortunately. You have to get your facts correct and the correct photos for the correct actresses to be taken seriously Sorry hun… this video needs to be rewatched and fact checked
Why you doing people already in the MCU with roles still. This video could've been 10 minutes shorter. Your number 1 would be good if not for the height. But Halle Berry was 5' 5" so put her in some pumps and make Wolverine short!
All your picks are great. Diarra Kilpatrick, Xosha Roquemore (Cherish the Day) and Lovie Simone would be good. Dominique Fishback has a quiet stern countenace that embodies power, although she isn't chiseled (yet). Angelica Ross looks the part and has LGBTQ cache. Emayatzy Corinealdi definitely looks the part
Angela Bassett would have been the perfect Storm back in the day. Even today if she wasn’t as old as she is. It’s unfortunate she never got the chance.
Although I appreciate the compilation, your list is illogical. I've stopped at 6:48 because I have to do something else, but you have Lupita N'Yongo at this position. HOW is she going to be Storm when she's already Nakia in the MCU? That makes no sense.
My choice is "Kylie Bunbury" from the tv show "Big Sky", She is Beautiful, 35 yo and 5'8". A very good actress with 20 different acting credits in tv and movies and good at action scenes.
I always thought that Angela Bassett would have made a better Storm than Halle Berry. Oh well. 😞
Angela never play the role but she is my storm for life halle not good in super hero movies
She would’ve still been in the background underutilized with no real character, even more so because I believe the original script for x2 showed a lot of storms lines were originally Jeans but after the Oscar win they gave some to Halle.
Fun fact: Janet Jackson was also in line to be Storm. She was down, but had scheduling conflicts and couldn't come through.
@@KIDSOUL777Something tells me Janet would have been worse.
I mean maybe they killed her off in BP2 so they can have her in the role since they're doing the multiverse🤷🏿♂️🤞🏿

I just hope storm is a dark skin !!❤❤
You took my whole argument! Hands down!
Exactly. But to be honest.. No one can play Storm.. She is the hardest Character out of all Comic Books, to play..They need someone Young!.
Dark skinned like Halle Berry?

I agree
no thanks. she looks too androgynous. i'm sure there are hundreds of actresses in kenya trying to break into the industry. disney just needs to go over there and pick the one they feel is best.
DeWanda Wise is my number 1 choice to play Storm too. Good video.
I can see that
80’s Iman has the perfect look and accent.
Storm was originally based on Iman.
@@fortelewisandrew2426wait foreal?
@@EzraelReynolds Yes.
Iman would have been the perfect Storm. She was in Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country (1991), L.A. Story (1991) and No Way Out (1987)

How bout Jade Cargil from WWE
I think I’m picking Ana Diop as my top but that’s because I know her better. But I would be VERY happy if your number 1 was picked.
I hope the women who play Storm has a voice range like the 97 cartoon Storm i think Storm is the mother of the earth this is why she feel everything that happens to the plant

Her face is too youthful. It's cute, but not striking. She lacks gravitas.

this was why I came here...to see if she got mentioned
She can barely cut a promo but you want her to be a whole actress….stop.
She got the look but nah she can’t act
This is racist. Jade is too buff sorry storm is always depicted as beautiful
Iman acted in House Party 2 and Star Trek VI. She did a good job in those movies.
DeWanda Wise. Yes.

Dewanda Wise, Jodie turner smith or Anok Yai
Jodie Turner-Smith, Naomi Campbell, Aja Naomi King, Tracy Ifeachor, Racquel Palmer and Grace Jones if she was 4 decades younger. Those are my top picks
Nafessa Williams from “Black Lightning” would be great as storm
Recently saw a video mentioning her as well!
Patina Miller (Raising Kanan) has the Height,Face, voice body and acting chops
Anna Diop ‼️‼️‼️
5’8
Beautiful & Attractive
36 yrs old but looks 28
acting skills top notch
Teyona Taylor is my pick.
Naomi Campbell back then...perfecti👌🏾 Current pick is Jodi TS
1. JODIE - she has a supporting role aura but also has a star power in frame, her features look up to date
2. DEWANDA - she has a protagonist/main character aura, she has the Disney look
3. DAMARIS - she has the vibe and her introduction in Titans was so iconic, looks like Bassett
Dewanda Wise is "De'one"
I am a huge Storm fan I agree with you Dewanda Wise is perfect✨🌩️⚡🌧️.Maybe Halle Berry is conventionally prettier but Angela Bassett IS more regal and she😊 conveys better a sense of confidence and strength.
Iman also had a great part on "In the Heat of the Night"!

Hear me out...the singer. Coco Jones. She's chocolate. She's 5'10, she has the physique, she's gorgeous, and she has a background in acting too.
I ALWAYS thought Angela Bassett and Phylicia Rashad would've made amazing Storms!!!
Jade Cargill of WWE she hast to look she has the body she even has the hair perfect match for storm
nope she won’t look like storm is East African she won’t look nothing like her have you see how East African women look like they don’t look like black women u see in the state

She would be awful. Throw in her funky remarks about black Americans. I am completely out on her. Plus she isn't on the level looks wise.

She has to be a great actress, over 5'9, and commands a room. Tika Sumpter is wife goals.

Coco Jones is young (26), tall (5,10"), beautiful brown skin and hella attitude. All these beautiful Queens look young enough to play Storm at the of 26 - 30 year old Storm because Black don’t crack but if Janelle is picked like rumors say…then I will not be watching and anyone I know best not watch it either..In that case I would’ve voted yes to Beyoncé. Ive been a fan of Storm for 40 years and watched how they destroyed her image in toons and that horrifying Fox BS (I do love Halle tho and that’s the only reason why I made a light fuss about it) hell, just bring Halle back.
If they can have the 50’ woman play 5’0" short Jean and a gargantuan play 4’11" Wolverine then why can’t a woman of decent height play Storm, who is a Goddess. They wouldn’t let Tom Holland play Thor now would they…the MCU would be lit on fire if they did. So why let them do Storm any kind of way..the one and only Black member of the X-Men.
I like Sonequa Martin-Green because she has the action and dramatic acting chops.
What do you think of Deborah Ayorinde
BEYONCE she looks amazing with white hair and she’ll bring that quiet stealth like mystery to storm
This is filled with so many acting credit errors and picture errors that I just had to stop watching it unfortunately. You have to get your facts correct and the correct photos for the correct actresses to be taken seriously
Sorry hun… this video needs to be rewatched and fact checked
Such as?
Why you doing people already in the MCU with roles still. This video could've been 10 minutes shorter. Your number 1 would be good if not for the height. But Halle Berry was 5' 5" so put her in some pumps and make Wolverine short!
All your picks are great. Diarra Kilpatrick, Xosha Roquemore (Cherish the Day) and Lovie Simone would be good. Dominique Fishback has a quiet stern countenace that embodies power, although she isn't chiseled (yet). Angelica Ross looks the part and has LGBTQ cache. Emayatzy Corinealdi definitely looks the part
Angela Bassett to play older Storm & Keke Palmer to play the younger storm, been a fan of Keke since the show True Jackson
Deborah Ayorinde from “them” is my pick, I feel like she would kill it! Either her or Jodie 👐🏾
Storm needs her own Movie ⚡️
8:16 "Her face is really intense" took me out 💀😭
😂
The top two are so perfect👌🏾
I had to search for her cause I wasn't sure by name of who she was but after seeing her hell yeah she definitely #1 in my book but Jodie turner smith
Whoever plays Storm they need to implement some sort of animation technology with the white hair. A wig slapped on the head won't do.
#JadeCargill should play Storm. Perfect size and build.
The last 3 actresses are perfect, Dewanda Wise, Jodie Turner-Smith and Anna Diop for Storm.
Angela Bassett would have been the perfect Storm back in the day. Even today if she wasn’t as old as she is. It’s unfortunate she never got the chance.
💯
Yaya has always been my pick. She looks the part and has the presence to command a room.
Although I appreciate the compilation, your list is illogical. I've stopped at 6:48 because I have to do something else, but you have Lupita N'Yongo at this position. HOW is she going to be Storm when she's already Nakia in the MCU? That makes no sense.
None of the above the oldest person should play a storm is the wrestler Jade Cargill
Actress N'bushe Wright she played beside Wesley snipes in the first blade, she would be perfect.👍🏿🎯💯
My choice is "Kylie Bunbury" from the tv show "Big Sky", She is Beautiful, 35 yo and 5'8". A very good actress with 20 different acting credits in tv and movies and good at action scenes.
Bro u forgot Emayatzy Corinealdi!! check her out
