Is there anything this woman can’t do?

Aside from absolutely brutalising her opponents in the Octagon, ‘Rowdy’ Ronda Rousey likes to dabble in a bit of acting with roles in Entourage and The Expendables in her IMDB profile.

Now she wants to play the role of Ms Marvel in the upcoming Ms Marvel movie scheduled for release in 2018.

In a recent Q&A on Reddit, she said when asked what movie she’s like to be in, “Well… a lot of the good ones have been taken, but I’d like to vie for Miss Marvel.”

Ms Marvel is a superhero with flying abilities as well as great strength, and Rousey seems to be a perfect fit for the role with her strength well documented… as of now, we’re unsure whether she is capable of flight but we will keep you posted on our investigations.

Rumoured to be in the running for the role are former award winning actresses Emily Blunt (we love her), Bryce Dallas Howard and Jessica Chastain which means she will have to overcome some stiff competition if she is to win the role.

We believe she can do it though, she’s backed up everything she’s attempted so far anyway.
