Possibly. How old was Boudicca during her campaigns? Weaver is over 50 now. That's not a bad thing, in and of itself, but how accurate would it be?

Of course, H'Wood would invariably want some 20-year old honey to do it.

"This would place her at least in her 30's when she led the Iceni to bloody revolution. Of course, she could have been much older than this. Her precise age remains a mystery."

Given the harshness of the times and that "old age" began at 40, I don't think Weaver would be a bad choice.
She still looks "young" enough but she's not "cutesy" and I'll never forget her fighting the Queen Alien.

Boadicea was a fierce, gutsy broad.
I'll freak out if they have some "gorgeous" silicon bimbo play her.....:))

[and besides...Hepburn is gone]
