Screen Sirens: Agent 99 in “Get Smart”

Welcome to the eighth edition of Screen Sirens! Here I will bridge the gap between our beloved (well, some at least) women of wrestling and the leading ladies gracing the movie screen - whether they be damsels in distress, kick-ass bombshells, dramatic protagonists, or anything in between - we will celebrate the influence and presence of women in the movies and see how they in turn could be connected to the Divas and Knockouts we discuss on this very blog.

With this weekend’s release of “Get Smart”, we’ll look at the character of Agent 99, the tough-as-nails and resourceful secret agent. In this film, Agent 99 is played by Anne Hathaway. She is Maxwell Smart’s much more intelligent and capable partner, often needing to get him out trouble. She is suave and slick, especially when compared to her bumbling partner. As many women in the “spy” genre films, she is both sexy and deadly, capable of defeating the bad guys and look impeccable while doing so.

Which Diva would be suitable for the role of Agent 99? Almost any WWE could fit this role, in some shape or form. After all, Agent 99 is both sexy and tough - two distinguishing characteristics of a WWE Diva. Who could pull off the super-spy attitude, being kick-ass and alluring at the same time? She must be able to combine the wit and charm of Anne Hathaway and Barbara Feldon and have the believable toughness that makes Agent 99 so intimidating. (WARNING: I’m aware that this poll is huge - I wanted to include as many women as possible - ludicrous choices or not!)

Sorry, there are no polls available at the moment.

  1. For some reason, I can really see Trish in the role - being funny and kick ass at the same time.

  2. I voted for Eve because she is beautiful and has a degree in industrial engineering. I agree that Trish would be great. Whoever voted for Ashley is pretty delusional.

  3. I voted Stacy. She has that innocent look, but she can kick butt. Much like Agent 99 in this film.

  4. I was 1 of the 2 that voted for ashley because she is beautiful and pretty witty at times!
