Natalia Vodianova takes on Medusa

Natalia Vodianova

The Supermodel-Making-It-In-Hollywood crown may have belonged to Lily Cole in 2009, thanks to her starring role in The Imaginarium Of Doctor Parnassus, but in 2010 we predict that it'll be stolen by an equally high profile newcomer: Natalia Vodianova.

According to web whispers, the Russian catwalker is the face of what looks like a fully CGI-ed Medusa in the eagerly-anticipated remake of the 1981 epic Clash Of The Titans, which stars Sam Worthington, Liam Neeson and Gemma Arterton and is set to open in the UK on 26 March.

Despite starring in Roman Coppola's 2001 film CQ and last year's Probka, which was directed by Alexander Kott, the film would be Natalia's first shot at a mainstream Hollywood blockbuster.

Apparently, director Louis Leterrier wanted to reference Medusa's mythical beauty before she was turned into a snake-headed monster as a punishment doled out by Aphrodite, and decided that Natalia had the superlative look of today. Her involvement is so minimal, however, she's so far not officially credited, and the production notes are yet to be signed off.

If it really is her, La Vod's as fierce as a mythical goddess as she is on a runway judging by this extended trailer. See her in all her gory glory at 1:44 (but blink and you'll miss it).
