2. Margaret Qualley

Dynamic, that’s Margaret Qualley. She’s a name that you might not be familiar with, but you’ve certainly seen her work. From her breakout role in HBO’s The Leftovers to her performance in Quentin Tarantino’s Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, Qualley has proven that she’s a versatile actress who can handle any role that comes her way. But have you ever considered her as Zatanna?

At first glance, Qualley might not seem like an obvious choice to play the magician and superhero but hear us out. In the film Donnybrook, Qualley played a young mother who will do whatever it takes to support her son, and her performance was nothing short of captivating. She brought a rawness and intensity to the role that would translate perfectly to Zatanna’s character, who is both powerful and vulnerable.

But it’s not just Qualley’s dramatic roles that make her a good fit for Zatanna. In Netflix’s Maid, a series that she both stars in and produces, Qualley showcases her comedic chops, proving that she can handle the lighter moments that come with a superhero role.

Qualley is a rising star in Hollywood, and Zatanna could be just the thing to propel her to even greater heights. With her talent, versatility, and natural charisma, we have no doubt that she would make an incredible addition to the DC Universe. So, whether you’re a fan of the comics or just love a good superhero movie, keep your eye on Margaret Qualley. We have a feeling that she’s going to be one to watch in the coming years.
