'Green Lantern Corps' Movie News: Christina Wren Is Star Sapphire?
While it remains to be confirmed whether Christina Wren's Major Carrie Ferris character in "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" is, indeed, Carol Ferris, the actress has already expressed her excitement for her inclusion in the planned DC film, "Green Lantern Corps" in the event that her character is, indeed, who people suspect it to be.
"Yes! Yes!" she said. "Like, absolutely! I mean, super-huge fan. Would die to be a superhero. My whole childhood growing up, I wanted to be a superhero and we didn't really have the female superheroes who were in the limelight at the time….To get to grow up and do that would be really a dream come true, but I'm waiting as much as anyone else," Wren said when asked during the red-carpet premiere of the current blockbuster "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" if she is willing to be clad in a superhero costume courtesy of Carol Ferries, aka Star Sapphire.
Wren first caught the attention of the moviegoers via the 2013 Henry Cavill blockbuster "Man of Steel," with moviegoers remembering her saying "He's kind of hot," in reference to Superman after the Man of Steel appeals to the general to convince Washington not to doubt his intentions. However, DC fans became even more curious about Wren when speculations that she might actually be Carol Ferris/Star Sapphire, Green Lantern's love interest in the comic book rendition of the hero, started floating.
