Unfortunately Hollywood is still obsessed with the slim body type for action heroines. Gina Carano held promise for projecting a more athletic body type in lead roles, but now she's gone.
Brooke Ence deserves a role based on what she's already done, and I think DLB could cross over to acting and make it work. But Hollywood producers seem terrified of going there. Look at the recent casting for She-Hulk.

Jennifer Walters isn't huge in her normal form, though. Most likely, they'll do what they did with Mark Ruffalo's Smart Hulk and beef her up to a seven foot tall amazon using CGI.
Do you ever look at a musclegirl and immediately wish that she were cast in a certain character on screen? As Wonder Woman, She-Hulk, Lara Croft, Harley Quinn or Poison Ivy - you name it. I know we have seen a lot of cosplay on this, but not all seem equally memorable. Who are your 'dream-cast' musclegirls in famous movie roles? I am naming a few of my own:
Hippolyta - Stephanie Kay Koerber
Valkyrie - Sarah Backman
Cheetah - Layla Mikayla
Donna Troy - Cass Martin
Hawkgirl - Stephanie Sanzo
Brooke Ence as Lady Thor - Brooke Ence
Harley Quinn - Maria Scaffidi
Supergirl - Leana
Talia al-Ghul - Tina Ngyuen
Poison Ivy - Syleena Adams
Titania - Zlata Tarasova
She-Hulk - Rach White
