The lead actress in the SyFy show Dark Matter would be a stronger choice I think. She's puts in a better performance than anything I've seen Olivia Munn in.

I remember some people couldn't tell back when she was on whatever that bad show was called. I could though. I think there was a joke that the X-Men 3 director or someone said about how she changed her name early on so people wouldn't think she was Asian.

And when I saw her spinning the sword I just thought about that scene from Raiders...
I would be surprised if she is even at 50% of what Jessica Biel was during Blade 3. And you know what would have been both geeky and cool? Instead of talking about the costume and spinning a sword, if she was in a gym and did one of those Psylocke versus screen combos right before a battle in the X-Men Children of the Atom game. Perhaps ended it with a victory pose. Capcom did style her after Jim Lee's artwork. Also, I believe the blue costume first appeared in Jim Lee's X-Men #1. But all this is jumping ahead. We'll see what she does in the movie. I just hope she turns in a better performance as Psylocke than what we received for Storm...
