JESSICA ALBA AS SAMUS.

I think a Metroid movie would be good, compared to like Mario and Zelda lol.

lol though I share your enthusiasm about Jessica Alba as being hot and a cool Samus, it's just not her. She doesn't embody a female who can be a bounty hunter. Women like Lucy Liu are great actresses who are hot, yet tough at the same time. Lucy Liu, however, is Asian and that kind of move to put her in the role for Samus will be blasphemous for the videogame world and quite possibly in Hollywood as well.

Because of that, I think Uma Thurman would make a good choice. Though I have mixed thoughts about her looks (she is average to poor in my eyes on the look department) she has the image of a tough woman ever since the Kill Bill movies were made, so she would be great for this role.

if kira knightley can play a bounty hunter in domino Alba can play samus damn it ! Oh the movie would make more people know about Metroid so the game franchise will proably sell more even if the movie sucks.
