I think this answer is pretty obvious, Catwoman. If she would have not been dumb and just been patient, I think that a Storm movie would have been inevitable. Now though, i dont think there is anyway it will happen. After the disaster called catwoman was released, i don't think the studios could possibly take a chance on her leading a comic book movie. I would think the movie exec that would even...
There can still be an X-Men Orgins: Storm but with another actress other than Halle Berry. Easily possible. My vote is for Angela Bassett who was attached in the 90s and the definite favorite for the part.

It's not just Halle. No female driven comic book movie has been successful. Aeon Flux (Charlize Theron) Elektra (Jennifer Garner) have all failed. Catwoman actually made the most money out of all of them.
Storm was never going to happen anyway.
True, there has not been a female comic book movie that was successful, but that doesn't mean its not possible. To be fair, there has yet to be a comic book movie focusing on a female that had an even remotely decent script. It doesn't have to be big budget, but at least a somewhat quality script. Electra Aeon Fulx and Catwoman are just silly.
Storm should be recast and portrayed by Naomie Harris.

I believe it is possible to have a female superhero and pull a profit at the box office. it all starts with a compelling screenplay. Unfortunately, no one in Hollywood is willing to focus on the story first before designing the costume or the special effects on these kinds of films.
Sure Catwoman failed, but that was because the script was crap and most comic fans knew it several years in ...
I agree with everyone, Catwoman was a bad movie, but it's due to poor plot and script( all the female super hero moives were done that way). But you have to agree that Halle played the part well. What should have happened, was trash the Catwoman movie all together and put her in the Batman begins movie like they were in talks of doing in the first place, that would have been even a bigger draw ...
But Holly has made it obv ious that she doesn't care about playing Storm; that's why someone like Naomie Harris needs to be cast in the role. Or Sophie from Hotel Rwanda. Holly was always the worst choice for Ororo/Storm. She was simply chosen because her mixed-girl features please white men, and they're the segment of the audience that gets thought about first.
"Back in the day when things...
Halle not "Holly". They may have done good in the role but I agree with you she wasn't the best storm my pick would have been IMAN or Angela Bassett, but Halle was chosen for her star power and her box office draw... the studio thought Halle and dollars signs.
"This moment is so much bigger than me."- Halle Berry
Well Halle has experience in the action genre and she likes doing her own stunts so that's a plus for her like in catwoman, that was all her besides the CG effects. In her name, you have to pronounce the "a" sorta like "Hal" and add an e. It's pronounced like "Hallie". "This moment is so much bigger than me."- Halle Berry
