When Cate Blanchett debuted her version of Hela in the Thor: Ragnarok trailer yesterday, the Internet went wild. Fans, critics, and fellow actors had more than enough praise for Blanchett’s epic new look.

However, one star – who recently played a popular villainess – thought Hela wasn’t exactly as original as people were making her out to be.
Elizabeth Banks took a jab at Blanchett on Twitter, claiming that Hela’s look was taken from her take on Rita Repulsa in Power Rangers. She put up two side-by-side pictures of the characters, and said, “Bish stole my look”.
Obviously, this is only a jest in good fun. Banks followed up the statement with the hashtag #loveyoucate.
While it’s just a joke, it is crazy to see just how similar the characters look. Both have the dark hair, solemn looks, and green suits. Plus, they’re both dangerous and intimidating villains in their own right.
