Who Could Fill Jessica Rabbit's Dress for a Mo-Capped Roger Rabbit Sequel?
It's been almost a decade since director Robert Zemeckis forsook live action for the weird, dead-eyed world of motion capture performance, but recent comments indicate he may be using his newest toys to resurrect some of his oldest creations. "I'll tell you what is buzzing around in my head now that we have the ability--the digital tools, performance capture--I'm starting to think about Roger Rabbit," he told MTV. Naturally, our heads filled with wild speculation and even wilder dress dimensions: if Zemeckis is implying the possibility of a motion-captured Roger Rabbit sequel, who in Hollywood could apply mocap dots to her bosom to play Jessica Rabbit?
One of the most intriguing facets of performance capture is the ability to resize the actor in question, so might Zemeckis be able to use Kathleen Turner's voice and a whittled-down version of her body? Or would he reunite with his Beowulf star Angelina Jolie (surely the nearest thing to a live action Jessica) and marry Jolie with Turner's voice?
If Zemeckis really wants to save up for what would almost certainly be a budget-busting project, we'd like to suggest Megan Fox as Jessica's figure model. As we learned from her Jonah Hex wardrobe, Fox might be the only actress who could pull off Jessica's physically improbable waist without the help of special effects.

Oh god please don't let them use Turner's voice. Has anyone heard it lately? I had to put a glass cup on my basement floor just to pick up the vibrations. Not. Sexy. Anymore.
Bless her heart.

R U on CRACK????
Scarlett Johansson could do it.
Laura Prepon. 'nuff said. Please don't suggest Angelina Jolie for anything, now or ever.
My first impulse was also Megan Fox, but since she's taken I'd like to suggest a rather odd but nonetheless intriguing runner-up. Ms. Devon Aoki.
Totally hot in Sin City and I think she'd do Jessica Rabbit proud.
umm, OK I'm a 3D arist and i have a pretty good hang on this technology, the only thing you'd need to do is use 'props' such as a specially desinged toonish shaped body outfit for one of the performers.
In essence the star doesn't have to look anything like the toon in question, just slap on a 'jessica rabbit body suit' onto the voiceactor and you have your self an object for motion capture..
Jeri Ryan is the only logical choice! Angelina is over-rated and a man-made creation to boot!
+1 for Jeri Ryan.
Jessica Rabbit is easy, who will they get for the Baby Herman suit?!?!
I second the Laura Prepon suggestion. She's underused and she's a natural redhead!
"who will they get for the Baby Herman suit?!?!"
Verne Troyer?

Does anybody even really care what Jessica Simpson does anymore? I heard she has a TV show...I was excited about that as I was when I heard I had a cavity.
