My two favs have already been mentioned (Jessica Biel and Cameron Diaz) so I'll go with Jaime Pressly. She played a kick-fighter in I think it was DOA or Street Fighter (one of those horrible 80's direct to video action movies that I would always rent in the hopes of a tough girl in there somewhere) And has always been fit. She looks amazing on her current show Mom but I don't know if it's an order from the higher ups or what but she always wears long sleeves.
Kim looked amazing in that fight. I wish she had done more than slam JLo into the wall and carry her away. It was a nice ko, but much more would have made that movie worth watching. Kim's role was too small. She was huge there....very nice.
Among mainstream actresses, Angela Bassett as Tina Turner in "What's Love Got To Do With It?"
If Tina had guns like that, she'd have kicked Ike's ass with ease.
Cameron Diaz is another who's nicely muscled, too.
Check out Jessica Biel in "Blade: Trinity", Hollywood just doesn't get hotter than that!
Rachel McLish in "Iron Eagle 3" and "Ravenhawk" aren't exactly Oscar-winning performances, but does showcase her build nicely.
Sharon Bruneau did a B-movie action flick "Tornado Run" and let's not forget Jeanette Goldstein in "Aliens" - all the female Marines in that one were slapped together.
On TV, here's one that probably escaped everyone else's notice: Israeli actress Noa Tishby in the Star Trek: Enterprise episode "Harbinger". She wasn't 'shredded' but displayed a stocky, muscular build.
Also, Spice Williams as a female Klingon warrior in "Star Trek 5: The Final Frontier".
Those are just some off the top of my head... I'll add more as I think of them.
They aren't two of the most respected sitcoms, but Spice Williams played likable comical wrestlers in episodes of MAMA'S FAMILY and OUT OF THIS WORLD.
I don't go in for the movie in spite of her and Kathleen Kinmont, but there's Lori Fetrick in an action film called CIA: TARGET ALEXA. I'm not much of a gun person, including fiction, but there's a view of a gun holster against her right thigh that could almost make me one!
A good number of fight scenes for Lori without the gun in that movie. I wish they had her do more, but she was active in showing off her muscles in that one. She and Kinmont have the inevitable showdown.

She was one of the amazon warriors in the first Wonder Woman film (with Gal Gadot). Watched her recently in another movie about some underground women's fight tournament, can't remember the name of it.
Almost 50, and I've liked muscular women since I saw my first picture of one in a magazine when I was less than 10. She had won national competitions and was an oddity, covered by magazines following this strange trend, and semiotics scholars writing about the blending of the sexes. Of course, if she were to compete now, she would be absolutely and thoroughly destroyed by just about any teen girl hitting the gym looking to build some muscle.
I'm married and I've never told anyone, not even my wife of almost two decades. Not even my family. Even though my mother may have found some of my carefully hidden stash of magazines while cleaning, she never said a peep. My dad always criticized and insulted FBBs whenever some contest happened to pass by on the TV when he was channel surfing, so I tried to avoid that. My younger brother figured out and told me. He didn't voice his opinions about them nor tried to challenge mine, and left me to my own since it wasn't his problem at all. He was the more adult of all of us, even myself. He still is.
After all these years, I don't get excited with FBB pictures and videos on a screen, but when I see one in the flesh, my heart races like it's that first time, and I try to steal glances and cross her path way too many times to be coincidental. I never try to strike conversation because my intentions would run counter to my marriage vows. I remember one time when I was younger and single, I was waiting in a queue to enter the movie theater and this young woman was in a sleeveless shirt, sporting really muscular, beefy arms. I stared so long and so hard she put on a jacket. I've felt bad about it ever since. If she had called out to me and complained, I would've died of embarrassment on the spot. I was so starstruck I couldn't carry myself in a normal way...
So I've never actually told anyone, not even friends, not even internet friends, only anonymous strangers on internet forums, like now.
KevinTheGangsta.. i too saw a girl jogging that was hugely muscled and really,really pretty..this was in early morning in 96 i believe..i said ''hi'' as i went past on my bike on the opposite street.[2 parallel streets close together]never saw her again though i rode that route to my elderly mom's a lot. in 85 iwas at a gym and saw a middleweight fbb,worked out by her..my first fbb of any merit size wise etc. also i once saw a big strapping beefbus young 20 ish fbb...at a pawn shop.she was pretty but not like the supermodel face on the jogger.that girl was prolly a shapeshifting alien or something..too good to be. anyway of course most all of us here would agree every kid starting school at 5 and earlier should be introduced to the merits of a lifetime of weight training and or exercise and encouraged.imagine with the popularity of the wonder woman movie..if the actress had been someone like renee enos..or insert your fbb..there would prolly be a 20 percent boost at least in girls bodybuilding.anyway im going to sleep now..hope i dream of the jogger.

Those are just some off the top of my head... I'll add more as I think of them.
I tend to find that the movies don't generally do well in putting muscular or strong looking women anywhere near a lead role. For example, Wonder Woman hasn't ever been a strong looking woman, but at least they did put Brook Ence and some other strong looking women in amongst the Amazons.
Are there any other movies which have given strong women a proper appearance?
I'm not a comic book guy. My knowledge comes from watching the TV show as a kid.
Suggestion: have a conventional actress play the normal, calm role. That's the real dramatic "depth"; angry hulk just grunts. Then have a legit muscle woman play the hulk role and CGI her face to look like the actress. They only need look reasonably alike anyway.
Bonus: you can bring two legit, live actresses to promo events.
I have zero interest in primarily CGI movies anyway.
@Dashriprock I think this is the one you mean? Long time favourite of mine.
An oldie but a goodie.... Over the years all my girls have heard "Show it to me, I would like to see it" (said just like the women), come out of my mouth. Guess I couldn't get this clip out of my mind. They didn't know where it came from and I would tell them it came from a movie cause I couldn't find the clip for a while. Now I can show them.

I was very excited too when she talks about her physical labor
I saw the movie Skin Deep on TV in 1991, when Raye Hollitt started flexing, well, I got very excited.
A place for all lives action female muscle growth in commercial,Movies and TV series,.. etc. I mean real life woman who grow strong with help of CGI.

Sharon Bruneau in Tornado Run. Terrible movie, but who cares. She poses, works out, practices karate, squeezes a guys hand, etc.
Such a nice GIF :)
There was a thread like this already. I can only add Angela Brasset in the Tina Turner movie once more. Such incredible definition there.

Teagan was in a few B movie type things. She was an early amazon from the 80's. I wish she had more appearances.

Sarah Connor in T2 is probably one of the most famous examples of an actress getting ripped for a movie role
I recommend that you watch Pumping Iron II : The Women and Getting Physical. There is a lot of female bodybuilding in that movies
Sue Price and others in Nemesis 2-3-4

Kathy Long in The Stranger, Knights
Kari Wuhrer in Malevolent, King of Ants

PS no NSFW content or adult movie references.
That's a good idea, faceswaps are very convincing even the ones available for the public.
