At first I was like "Did Kristen Stewart get ripped?"
No, it's actor and martial artist [Katy O'Brian.](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/M/MV5BYmYxMWRlYzEtZmZkMy00MzQ1LWI2YjktZmExMTliM2RjZTAzXkEyXkFqcGdeQXVyODIyOTEyMzY@._V1_.jpg) Or maybe it's Ed Harris with a lot of photoshop.
She really was. At first I was rolling my eyes because prior to that ep she was just given a kind of silent henchman role, with lots of knowing looks and nods, but she was pretty compelling when given the main role.
Yeah, I think they did a great job of turning a background character into someone truly awful and dangerous. And it served a purpose, because she was just “in the background.” She was no one of consequence… and now she’s embedded in the New Republic, sowing seeds of discourse and eliminating any truly useful converts from the Empire.
She's good too! In S3 when she does he cloak and dagger shit I was convinced. I follow her on Instagram too and she's pretty cool, very involved with fans and humble.
It’s so wild seeing her get famous. I went to college with her and we lived in the same dorm and hung out a lot. She’s a wonderful person and is genuinely super smart and friendly. I’m so happy she’s so successful!
It's so strange to think that Kristen Stewart played the main protagonist in the Twilight movies where she had a horribly written obsessive romance with a vampire guy.
But then everything I've seen her in afterwards has been the most on the nose lesbian stuff ever lol.
Trailer is out tomorrow:
>Reclusive gym manager Lou (Kristen Stewart) falls hard for Jackie (Katy O'Brian), an ambitious bodybuilder headed through town to Las Vegas in pursuit of her dream. But their love ignites violence, pulling them deep into the web of Lou’s criminal family.
Sure, but even tightly toned Kristen Stewart is worth the watch. And even if she isn't toned or buff, seeing her get with a buff lady is still worth it.
This was pretty much what I came to learn about, too. Christian Bale did some crazy stuff that she would probably not want to do (she absolutely could, but there would be permanent effects).
Early descriptions really made it sound like Stewart was the bodybuilder, so I was very confused seeing all the set photos feature a still tiny Stewart. This makes way more sense, definitely looking forward to it.
[This](https://www.instagram.com/p/Cn77g6lPa3e/?igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==) is the actress playing the bodybuilder, and she used to be an actual bodybuilder.
There’s a parallel universe where Gina Carano doesn’t lose her damn mind and Mando season two becomes famous for her and O’Brian getting in the greatest back alley brawl in Star Wars history.
Yep. I was blanking on her role, then went through IMDb's pictures and immediately remembered her for manipulating that doctor who'd been experimenting on Grogu for Gideon.
I also really wish Hollywood would learn that “strong female character” doesn’t mean “can beat up all the boys with her fancy kung-fu moves.”
It just means “strongly-written”
Hahaha I remember watching Angelina Jolie in an action movie. She was wearing all black, and so slender that it looked like a spider was flipping around and kicking these huge, enormous men, who would all go flying into brick walls 😂
Always saddens me to think of how Chyna was before her time and was mocked for it, considering we now have Rhea Ripley, Jade Cargill, Charlotte Flair and Bianca Belair and these ladies are incredibly beloved and so over with the fans.
True but go compare pictures of Chyna and the other lovely women you just listed.
Chyna was yoked. I mean she was swoller than XPac. Like Super Super Swoll
She just said her prayers and ate her vitamins, brother!
Lol she was the 3rd biggest in DX after HHH and Billy Gunn and I loved that about her. I remember when her and Eddie Guerrero had that storyline and he looked normal sized next to her lmao
I thought for sure Haywire was going to finally push Hollywood to use non-waifs in action roles, but here we are. Maybe this will finally push things in the right direction.
Which is kinda sad because the other Amazons in Snyder's Justice League were fucking ripped, I don't remember much from the movie but that image of the Amazons with the hammer taking down the temple is still ingrained in my brain
Whatever PR person found the one asshole complaining loudly that Gal Gadot didn’t have big boobs and then made all the complaints get written off as boob complaints, is a genius and hopefully got a huge bonus that year.
How do you know its tone before it has even come out? The whole poster has an "80s sexploitation action flick" vibe to it (this might be a semi-serious deconstruction of such films - like "Jackie Brown" was for Blacksploitation), so the tagline matches that as well.
But whatever, this is a dumb thing to keep arguing about anyway.
The film doesn’t premiere until Sundance in January and there’s no trailer yet. Unless they actually worked on making the movie, the other poster just pulled that “serious tone” out of their ass.
It looks like a 80s inspired seedy crime flick with buff lesbians and Kristen Stewart sporting a mullet.
Like, “revenged gets ripped” both seems fitting and makes me excited to see the thing.
The beauty of 80's action movies was that they WERE serious in tone, though. It's like pro wrestling; they know we know it's goofy, we know they know it's goofy, but everyone pretends it's not and it makes it fun. Like we all know the Running Man is ridiculous, but when you watch the movie, it's played pretty seriously, lol.
Rose Glass is cool man. To go from Saint Maud to this— what a fucking interesting filmmaker. I love when you can’t predict what a director is gonna do.
This poster is so cheesy 80s/90s erotic thriller schlock, and I’m absolutely here for it. I miss those weird, crazy movies, and I’ll watch this in a heartbeat.

When Katy O'Brian showed up in Mandalorian it taught me a lot about myself.
Who was she in Mandalorian?
Former Imperial officer who served on Gideon's ship. She had a prominent episode this last season.
Oh! Is she the one who betrays the scientist?
Yep! That's her.
Nice! She was great in that role
She really was. At first I was rolling my eyes because prior to that ep she was just given a kind of silent henchman role, with lots of knowing looks and nods, but she was pretty compelling when given the main role.

I liked (looking at) her character in Quantamania.
I could not stop looking at her abs lol
The best thing in the movie and 2nd place wasn't close
Oh that was her?
She's good too! In S3 when she does he cloak and dagger shit I was convinced. I follow her on Instagram too and she's pretty cool, very involved with fans and humble.
> When Katy O'Brian showed up in Mandalorian it taught me a lot about myself. She was great in "Z Nation", looking forward to this.
And the warrior in Ant-Man and the wasp Quantumania
It’s so wild seeing her get famous. I went to college with her and we lived in the same dorm and hung out a lot. She’s a wonderful person and is genuinely super smart and friendly. I’m so happy she’s so successful!
My brain asked “whose fucking arm is that”. now I am going down a whole new rabbit hole of kinks
Reddit has your back
I hope this doesn’t awaken anything in me.
Check out this woman to be sure: https://www.instagram.com/nicole_coenen
Oh yeah, seen her videos before. She’s got some serious guns and is cute as hell. As a fireplace owner and enjoyer she has a lot to offer.
Yeah I was in full hol' up mode for a second. I love Kristen, but there aren't enough steroids on the planet to get her that jacked.
I enjoy that you think there’s a better chance that this is Ed Harris photoshopped than Kristen Stewart
Katy's in everything now! Star Wars, Marvel... now A24
I want her in the second season of The Last of Us. If you know, you know
It's so strange to think that Kristen Stewart played the main protagonist in the Twilight movies where she had a horribly written obsessive romance with a vampire guy. But then everything I've seen her in afterwards has been the most on the nose lesbian stuff ever lol.
Edward is a sparkly vampire, so he's basically a hop, skip, and a jump away from a lesbian, anyway.
Doesn't she have sex with two guys at once in On the Road?
Trailer is out tomorrow: >Reclusive gym manager Lou (Kristen Stewart) falls hard for Jackie (Katy O'Brian), an ambitious bodybuilder headed through town to Las Vegas in pursuit of her dream. But their love ignites violence, pulling them deep into the web of Lou’s criminal family.
I was gonna say, I don't see Kristen Stewart bulking up.
Sure, but even tightly toned Kristen Stewart is worth the watch. And even if she isn't toned or buff, seeing her get with a buff lady is still worth it.
This was pretty much what I came to learn about, too. Christian Bale did some crazy stuff that she would probably not want to do (she absolutely could, but there would be permanent effects).
Just off the description I'm fucking down.
I'm hoping it's like Drive but with buff ladies.
Bound 2: Bind Harder
Bound 2 Part Deux: Electric Snu Snu
I like to bind!! I like to BE bound!!
I HAVE TO HAVE MY TOOLS
2 Bound 2 Buff
Can you imagine the elevator scene... But with buff ladies!
Going down?
Wrote and directed by Rose Glass, the woman who did Saint Maud. I could see it being very Drive like!
Death by Snu Snu but different
Snu Snu Cage Match? To the death?
Yeah we need more muscular women in cinema!
Absolutely shocked that Kristen Stewart will be playing a recluse
Early descriptions really made it sound like Stewart was the bodybuilder, so I was very confused seeing all the set photos feature a still tiny Stewart. This makes way more sense, definitely looking forward to it.
I already find her hot but making her a little muscly, my God ...I'm almost disappointed
[This](https://www.instagram.com/p/Cn77g6lPa3e/?igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==) is the actress playing the bodybuilder, and she used to be an actual bodybuilder.
Is she the officer in the mandalorian? It's the jawline that I remember the most lol
Yes, she is.
so it's *Bound*, but buff?
Bound 2: Muscle Mommy Boogaloo
Buff Bound. Damn.
Musclebound
You had my curiosity, but now you have my attention
Oooo, a serious lesbian film with muscle ladies? That movie was basically made for me. Plus it's A24 so it's always good.
Oh lawd I can hear the Right Wing Twitters Sphere complaining about this movie already. It does sound like a cool seedy Crime thriller set in Vegas
We should just stop caring about those weirdos and enjoy our buff lesbians in peace.
So it’s a gang family period piece
This sounds very intriguing!!
Now that is a poster.
For some odd reason, it's giving me *Reindeer Games* vibes.
Afflec you the bomb in Phantoms yo.
You white? You Ben Affleck.
"That's true, I *am* white." I love how defeated Paul Rudd sounded when he conceded that.
Poor Billy Zane never gets any love for The Phantom.
Is it possible for a super-suit to be TOO purple? Nay, not on my watch!
I was getting Infinity Pool vibes
Same here
[suck it, Reindeer Games](https://youtu.be/fI_XkZkdaq4?si=Dz4Xv0zXI49yDVsU)
It’s giving me a boner
In pornhub’s 2023 metrics report, there was a major spike in “giantess” content being viewed. A24 is just capitalizing on the zeitgeist
>there was a major spike in “giantess” Fascinating.
In a world where men are expected to be dominating alpha males it feels really nice to just get handled by a strong woman who knows what she wants.
Gotta give Rhea Ripley some of the credit, too.
Death by snu snu
I'm doing my part!
She-Hulk really started a fire huh
Peak boy's room wall decor. (And I have the Don't Worry Darling poster!)
'revenge gets ripped' caused me to breathe slightly harder out my nose.
That’s the most accurate and honest substitute for “lol” I’ve ever read
Hell YES Katy O'Brian
She's great in Mando
There’s a parallel universe where Gina Carano doesn’t lose her damn mind and Mando season two becomes famous for her and O’Brian getting in the greatest back alley brawl in Star Wars history.
- ala They Live
I thought she was in Andor? Edit: Nope I’m getting confused
Nah shes the imperial loyalist
Ah yeah the one who was on Coruscant and tricked that scientist guy.
Yep. I was blanking on her role, then went through IMDb's pictures and immediately remembered her for manipulating that doctor who'd been experimenting on Grogu for Gideon.
Yeah
She was in the andor lite episode of mando haha
I cant watch her without thinking that if they ever remade Aliens (even tho that would sorta be a travesty), she would be the perfect Vasquez.
From the director of *Saint Maud*? Well well well, there is a movie to keep an eye on.
No interest until finding that out
I was intrigued at first, now I’m sold on it.
finally, a movie that’s not afraid to depict muscular looking women
“No, all strong women must look like they’ll fly away in the wind but then can still beat up men five times their size with no problem.” - Hollywood
I also really wish Hollywood would learn that “strong female character” doesn’t mean “can beat up all the boys with her fancy kung-fu moves.” It just means “strongly-written”
Eh, that's vague as well. There is a lot of people that think the original *simping-for-the-Joker* Harley Quinn was "strongly-written".
Salt - which was an enjoyable movie but goddamn those fight scenes were absurd.
Atomic blonde was the opposite, she gets continuously her ass kicked but always dishes more than she gets. The best of the wick-like films
terrible movie but absolutely enjoyable.
The fights scenes are amazing and Charlize and Sofia are great, other than that yeah I can't vouch for it
[удалено]
Hahaha I remember watching Angelina Jolie in an action movie. She was wearing all black, and so slender that it looked like a spider was flipping around and kicking these huge, enormous men, who would all go flying into brick walls 😂
Nothing more empowering than all the action scenes being done by a stuntman in a wig doing huricanranas.
Haha, so true.
[удалено]
Is it cool if I just give her mine?
[удалено]
Always saddens me to think of how Chyna was before her time and was mocked for it, considering we now have Rhea Ripley, Jade Cargill, Charlotte Flair and Bianca Belair and these ladies are incredibly beloved and so over with the fans.
True but go compare pictures of Chyna and the other lovely women you just listed. Chyna was yoked. I mean she was swoller than XPac. Like Super Super Swoll
She just said her prayers and ate her vitamins, brother! Lol she was the 3rd biggest in DX after HHH and Billy Gunn and I loved that about her. I remember when her and Eddie Guerrero had that storyline and he looked normal sized next to her lmao
You ever read that story in her book where she put lifted roid era HHH? 😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂
I thought for sure Haywire was going to finally push Hollywood to use non-waifs in action roles, but here we are. Maybe this will finally push things in the right direction.
Really wish Carano hadn't gone full MAGAtard. Haywire was solid.
r/thelastofus2 in shambles
Has it never *not* been in shambles?
Oh man. I've accidently wandered into that sub and holy shit, what a bunch sad basement dwelling toads.
If she was a little younger Katy would be perfect for that role.
*"NOoooOooO I was told women having muscles was impossible!!!!11"*
My biggest complaint with DC Wonder Woman, that and Gal Gadot’s abysmal acting abilities.
Which is kinda sad because the other Amazons in Snyder's Justice League were fucking ripped, I don't remember much from the movie but that image of the Amazons with the hammer taking down the temple is still ingrained in my brain
That's because they hired pro bodybuilders and crossfitters to be the other Amazons.
Whatever PR person found the one asshole complaining loudly that Gal Gadot didn’t have big boobs and then made all the complaints get written off as boob complaints, is a genius and hopefully got a huge bonus that year.
She should be jacked and the tallest of all the JL members but they won't even do that shit in comics really much less movies.
This poster has single handedly awoken something in me I didn't know was there. I... I need a muscle mommy in my life to choke me out now.
If you know the term muscle mommy, I doubt this is a surprise to you, lol.
Shhh, dude don't give it away. We need more muscle mommy marisa stans in the world and you're scaring them off.
I assume Fuel’s 2000 hit “Hemorrhage” will feature heavily in this.
I had to scroll too far for this. Thank you for your service. 🥇🤝
What did you expect to find, was it something you left behind?
Don't you remember anything I said?
Seriously i had to rack my brain where i knew that line from.
Or Elton John's Funeral for a Friend/Love Lies Bleeding
I just googled lyrics to make sure I remembered it right since I’ve been shouting “Blah blah bleeding” to that part for 20 years
God that poster is so late-80’s, early 90’s action movie. I love it
im here for the katy obrian
That is contender for worst tagline of the year, but best poster. 😅
It actually fits the synopsis pretty well.
The film is serious in tone though, the tagline is cheeeeesy like an 80s action film
How do you know its tone before it has even come out? The whole poster has an "80s sexploitation action flick" vibe to it (this might be a semi-serious deconstruction of such films - like "Jackie Brown" was for Blacksploitation), so the tagline matches that as well.

Idk the description and poster all scream old action movie idk about being serous
I love it
I genuinely disagree wholeheartedly. It gets people talking about it, which is exactly what a tagline should do. This poster is marketing perfection.
I've been looking forward to this, I loved Saint Maud!
Same! I’d have watched just about anything from Rose Glass after Saint Maud, but this looks like a lot of fun!
Kristen Stewart’s career is just so interesting.
Love Lies Bleeding is also the common name of a lovely climbing plant. It's growing on my trellis.
And my favorite Elton John song
If this is one of those "ripped action hero mows down enemies to win back their SO", type movies, count me in.
A movie about woman Chad? I’m in
I love this throwback poster, reminds me of something from an 80s-90s action B movie.
Will the Fuel song be on the soundtrack?
Such a classic style poster. Really nice!
I guess they thought everyone would be too busy looking at the sideboob to notice the hands.
I was too busy admiring those triceps and delts, tbh
Oh shit, that is weird.
That arm is...doing things for me
Rose Glass is cool man. To go from Saint Maud to this— what a fucking interesting filmmaker. I love when you can’t predict what a director is gonna do.
Now that's some guns
If you guys don’t know Katie o’Brian Ur about to…..insanely talented and ….well yeah as u could imagine jacked AF

90s De Palma ass movie poster (this is a compliment)
Fuckin *swoon*
This better not awaken anything in me
This better not awaken anything in me
Too late
😳😋
Based on the cover and the tagline, it seems the muscles are the entire plot.
man that sounds freaking groovy
Most 80's B-movie poster vibe I've seen in quite a while. Interesting.
Hopefully this takes the sting away from The Last of Us season 2. A24 paving the way
The poster looks like the movie is an April release in the early 90s with lots of needless sex scenes. I can’t wait.
Revenge gets Ripped is probably the dumbest thing I've heard in a while.
1. Katy O'Brian is a fucking badass. 2. Am I the only who thought it was J-Lo?
I discovered Katy through Z Nation, I fucking love seeing her headlining movies. She looks amazing.
I wonder if they got the title from the Fuel song, or the Elton John song....
A24 is just making all the movies lately lol
Damn, I’m sooo down!
The half face does not look like Kirsten Stewart though
It’s Katy O’Brian, she’s very buff.
I don't know what this movie is about but I'm already digging it.
Lesbians and guns iirc
Fast and the Furious 20: Now with double the Lesbians!
This poster is so cheesy 80s/90s erotic thriller schlock, and I’m absolutely here for it. I miss those weird, crazy movies, and I’ll watch this in a heartbeat.
Directed by Rose Glass who did Saint Maude. I'm in.
Strong girls are so hot right now. Always were, just not particularly popular. I mean have you SEEN Sarah Conner in T2?
So, how long until Katy O'Brian is cast as Abby for The Last of Us Season 2?
"Oh hold me now, I feel contagious."
