Alan Martin tweeted this morning, “Just heard that Margot Robbie’s company have optioned rights from MGM to make a new Tank Girl movie – now several months into development.”

“We haven’t been contacted by any of the parties involved with the project, so not sure if there will be any input from the original creators,” he added.

Lori Petty is the only Tank Girl I can accept.

I won't go that far but it's a huge hill to climb, What they (and she) did for comic book movies at the time was just huge. It they did at a time when little girls were still largely ignored by society and they did it without in your face grrrlpower. I'm on record at thinking Petty's Tank Girl is one of the greatest comic book movies of all time no matter how it strayed from the source.

All that said, It's been nearly 30 years and I'm an old man, so we'll see. Really, around that time Lord of Illusion was the great big break through for CGI and I thought to myself,"CGI will never take the place of a real FX team if that's the best money can buy." It's a totally different world.

This version has been shown for the last couple weeks on one of my more obscure cable channels. Comet TV I think.

Loved Tank Girl and the genius of casting Ice T as a cop kangaroo, but I would also love to see Margot Robbie doing the role.

After watching Lori in OITNB Tank "Girl" would fetch it quite far.
