Kickass women - which film or TV character would you choose?

[Wonderbug81]

I was chatting to someone recently about imposter syndrome and they said that they when they needed to feel more confident at work they channelled a character from a film or TV show. People like Olivia Pope in Scandal or Elle from Legally Blonde.

Who would you choose..?

Ellen Ripley?

That's a good one!

Came here to say Ripley. Always Ripley.

Although a little bit of Buffy doesn't go astray sometimes too.

Alicia from The Good Wife. Calm and logical (usually ) in the face of adversity.

Also from Aliens, Vasquez.

Rebecca in Ted Lasso

Villanelle 😊

Maggie Q as Nikita! Ultimate female character

Sarah Connor Terminator 2

Lilith from Cheers.

Erin Brockovich
Villanelle

Alicia Florrick

My queen 🙌🙌🙌

All great, thank you!

Not watched Nikita so will check it out.

Babydoll from Suckerpunch

Scarlett O'Hara from Gone With the Wind always

Saga Norén The Bridge
Sarah Lund The Killing
Catherine Cawood Happy Valley

And a wild card: Sue White Green Wing

Samantha Jones

Definitely Sarah Connor.

Neagley in Reacher

Suzie from “Curb Your Enthusiasm” hah hah!

Alicia is mine as well! A couple of series in when she 0% people pleases.

Kill Bill, obvs.

But like the buffy suggestion too

I haven’t watched it but strikes me that Beth from Yellowstone is pretty kickass from what I’ve seen

Don't ask me why, but the film "Miss Sloane" (and the leading character) comes to mind.

I clearly remember watching Lauren Bacall in To Have and to Have Not as a young teen and being blown away. Still love that clip - If you want me, just whistle. You know how to whistle, dontcha Steve?'
