The actress joins a long list of celebrities (including Renee Zellweger, Brooke Shields, Ashlee Simpson and Destiny's Child singer Michelle Williams) who have previously brought the murderous Roxie to life on stage and on screen.

Ferrara will be donning her slinky black lace leotard and joining the production at its new London home, the Garrick Theatre, for an eight-week run before heading back to the US for a stint on Broadway in a revival of Beth Henley's 1984 play, The Miss Firecracker Contest.

What do you think? Can you see adorable Betty Suarez as a showgirl murderess?
