Huntress Movie Cast: Is Mary Elizabeth Winstead Returning in the DCU?

After a reputed industry insider claimed that a Huntress movie set in the DCU is in the works, fans want to know whether or not there is any truth to these reports and whether or not Mary Elizabeth Winstead, who last played the character in 2020’s Birds of Prey movie set in the DCEU, is returning to the role. Here is all you need to know on the matter.

Will Mary Elizabeth Winstead play Huntress in the DCU movie?

Mary Elizabeth Winstead has not been officially confirmed to be reprising her role of Huntress from Birds of Prey in the Huntress movie set in the DCU, as of publishing.

Reputed but semi-reliable industry insider Daniel RPK, has reported that a Huntress movie was being developed for the DCU. However, he did not reveal whether or not Mary Elizabeth Winstead would be reprising her role from 2020’s Birds of Prey in the movie. Moreover, according to rumors the film will be a Korean language movie.

However, fans should take the scoops of a Huntress movie being made and it being a Korean-language movie with a huge grain of salt and wait for official confirmation from James Gunn.

While Mary Elizabeth Winstead has not been confirmed to reprise her role of Huntress at any point in the DCU, it is very likely that she may not return to the role as her name was not mentioned by James Gunn, when he revealed the actors and characters who would retain their roles in his rebooted DC Universe.

Who else could play Huntress in the rumored DCU movie?

Due to the Huntress DCU movie being rumored to be a Korean film, it would make sense that a Korean actress could play the role.

One actress who could greatly fit into the role would be Squid Game’s Hoyeon Jung. Through her performance in Squid Game, Jung has shown that she has the acting range necessary to pull off Huntress’ moral ambiguity and penchant for violence and murder as a murderous vigilante.

Moon Ga-Young is another actress who can pull off Huntress, thanks to her performance in the K-Drama True Beauty where she showed great acting range and versatility.

Elsewhere in the DC world, Jason Momoa has addressed his future as Aquaman in the DCU. Also, here is the Hellhounds trailer.
