Zooey Deschanel as She-Hulk!?

New York Magazine did a cutesy piece on Iron Man this month suggesting some celebrities who might be cast as superheroes in future movies. Zooey Deschanel - who I'd never heard of before - is NY Mag's suggestion for She-Hulk:

ZOOEY DESCHANEL AS …SHE-HULK

Why It’s Unlikely: Despite her decadelong résumé, you still probably think her first name is a typo.

Why It Could Be Perfect: Her impressive range (David Gordon Green dramas; Elf) would sure come in handy for playing timid attorney Jennifer Walters and her green-skinned alter ego, who occasionally copulates with werewolves.

Of course, anybody who read the comic would know it was mostly Jennifer Walters who copulated with the werewolf [singular]. As far as journalistic rigor goes, NY Mag is only about a half-step above The New Republic, so we should be grateful they got She-Hulk's complexion right. She is, in fact, green.
