So far our only looks at Dredd have revealed Karl Urban in a helmet but today, there’s a new look at a few of the other cast members. Both helmeted and non.

Check out the first look at Olivia Thirlby as Judge Cassandra Anderson and Lena Headey as the villian Ma-Ma. You’ll also find a few shots of Judge Dredd running from explosions and kicking in doors. Two aspects of the job that Night Court never had the budget to bring to the screen. (Empire and SuperHero Hype)

“Game of Thrones” actress Lena Headey is adept at playing badass babes. And shady, hard-to-read babes. And just babes in general. The British actress, best known for portraying Sarah Connor on “Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles,” has been active since the early 1990s. Since then, she’s racked up an impressive rundown of notable roles, not the least of which was her portrayal of the thoroughly awesome Queen Gorgo in 300.

A word from Lena: “We’ve all had that moment where you look into someone’s eyes and there’s some kind of recognition there, whether you act on it or not.”

Lena Headey Fights The Power In ‘Dredd’

Bleeding Cool is reporting that Lena Headey will be squaring off against Karl Urban in Dredd. The site reports that she is playing Ma-Ma, the film’s main villian.

In the script, Ma-Ma is described as being in her late fifties or early sixties with a scar running down her face. There’s no official word yet that confirms the casting so take this with a grain of salt. I’d assume if they don’t go the aged route, they’ll simply scar up Headey as is and send her to set.

Then again, maybe they will age her. You know how those make-up people love to show off. Seems like a waste of liquid latex when the production just could have hired Betty White. She’s so hot right now.
