Stella Mwangi is one of the most successful Kenyan musicians. The Kenyan-Norwegian artist has seen her music get played in movies and TV series. Her EP, which was released in 2016 for the Hollywood Sync market, saw some of her music used as the official trailer soundtracks for Hollywood movies like Rough Night, A Bad Moms Christmas, TV series like Being Mary Jane, Rosewood on Fox and Insecure on HBO. Her new song,
'Ready To Pop', is perhaps a sign that she's ready to pop in movies. Here's a list of movies she would have done Justice to had she been chosen to play a character.
Thor: RagnarokIt's easy to consider her for the villainous role of Hela but Stella is still a good girl. Her feisty and powerful energy would have easily come out as Valkryie, played by Tessa Thompson. Just like Stella Mwangi, Valkryie is strong, good at what she does and still cares for others. Picture Stella Mwangi fighting alongside Chris Hemsworth to save the world. This role requires bravery and confidence which Stella exudes a lot of.
Justice LeagueWhat if Victor Stone aka Cyborg, played by Ray Fisher, had a female counterpart? Stella's high cheekbone and slender body would look great in that tech armour. She can also put that serious face when needed as she fights Steppenwolf to save Planet Earth. Yes, she would totally be best friends with Wonder Woman. But what would her character name be? Victoria Stone? Cyborg Woman? Hmm…
A Bad Moms Christmas Mila Kunis is always the leader of the pack wherever she is. Bad Moms brought that out for Mila. Stella Mwangi would take charge as Amy in the sequel A Bad Moms Christmas. Stella can easily let loose and have fun. This being a Christmas time, I'm sure Stella would make it in time, just like Amy, to save Christmas and have fun.
Guardians of the Galaxy: Volume 2Stella Mwangi can swap places with Zoe Saldana any time. Gamora's character is one of the roles that Stella should have been considered for. I'm sure many of us would not mind seeing Stella all green. Living in space seems like a very interesting life. You get to see the stars clearer. Stella Mwangi is a star, so which others stars would she be looking at? The Star Lord vs Gamora fight is one of the best scenes in the movie. There is also the messed up dynamic between Nebula and Gamora which Stella would have been able to execute with her strong personality.
X-Men: ApocalypseMystique: a very mysterious character in the X-Men movies. Mystique has always been like the anti-hero of the movie, with a complexity to her actions that don't make her necessarily evil. Stella Mwangi is versatile and agile just like Mystique. X-Men Apocalypse had Mystique as a hero, who wouldn't want to see Stella Mwangi shine as the hero in this mega movie?
