Clue: Casting the ’80s cult classic if it were made today
Mila Kunis as Miss Scarlet
When many people think of Clue, the character they think of is Miss Scarlet. A true femme fatale in every sense of the phrase, no matter how Miss Scarlet is portrayed, it’s as a beautiful young woman. Whether she’s a superstar or a super-spy, Scarlet uses her jaw-dropping beauty to manipulate those around her.
Miss Scarlet rolls first in the board game, so we think it’s fitting that for our movie version, she should be played by somebody else who is deserving of the A-list treatment: Mila Kunis. She’s certainly one of the most beautiful women in Hollywood, and come on, who wouldn’t willingly cover up a crime for her if she asked nicely?
In all seriousness, Kunis’ recent turn in The Spy Who Dumped Me, and her breakout role as Jackie in That 70s Show prove that she’s not just a pretty face — she’s seriously funny as well. She would fit right in with everyone else in Clue, and we have no doubt that she’d nail the role of Miss Scarlet.
