Painkiller Jane was supposed to be a Sci Fi Original TV series back in 2005, when the TV movie starring Emmanuelle Vaugier as the titular character debuted. For whatever reason, it appears that Vaugier is out, and Kristanna Loken (”T3: Rise of the Machines”) is in, with the Sci Fi Channel ordering a full season’s worth of episodes (22 in all) for Sring 2007 debut, so say Variety. Based on a comic book of the same name, the series will follow “Jane Vasko, a DEA agent recruited by a covert government org tasked with capturing genetically enhanced individuals. When she discovers that she has her own set of powers — she’s impervious to injury, but not pain — Jane begins to search for what caused her transformation and her own connection to the people she pursues.”
So what do you think? Kristanna Loken or Emmanuelle Vaugier? It’s hard to replace Vaugier in the sexy department, but it’s not like Loken is chop liver. Plus, Loken has Vaugier beat in the acting department. Either/or would be my choice.
