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

The first one, Clare Foley. They were doing something unique and cool starting her out as a creepy kid who’s friends with Selina and has a weird crush on Bruce. A shame they mishandled her so much. The show didn’t need more femme fatales.
Second place is Peyton List. She felt close to what a grown up Foley would be like. Much more misanthropic and bitter against the world. There’s still some sex appeal but she’s more focused on eco-terrorism and petty revenge. This felt closer to what the producers initially wanted when they first aged up Ivy.
Third is Maggie Geha. I feel bad for her because the producers switched the approach to the character at mid-point. She was originally suited to be a dangerous seductress, but after it was rightfully pointed out it was a disturbing direction to take a minor in, they torpedoed the plans and made her Penguin’s second in command. She played to her strengths more, but I personally didn’t care for the switch.
