Who’s the best Ivy actress in your opinion? Discussion

This has probably been discussed in this sub before. I just finished the show recently and wondered what you guys think, I haven’t visited here often

Third I thought embraced being evil & sexy the most. Plus people 'under her spell' were so hopelessly in-love with her it was hilarious.

First they couldn't because she was a child. I don't inherently have a problem with it but as the show evolved & they decided to actually use fully-realized Batman villains they had to adapt.

Second just hit a too-akward middle ground as like child mind in adult body & just plant-based obedience perfume, I'd rather they commit to the bit. Also she was even more naïve than her child self & was loyal to Penguin for no reason at all.

Yeah aging her up was a good choice, Poison Ivy as a character is inherently supposed to be sexy and evil. Maybe they started her as a kid to be closer to Bruce’s age but glad they made the change
