    Director Zack Snyder leaves his guy-heavy 300 in the ancient dust with his girl-powered Sucker Punch. [![](http://stag-komodo.wired.com/images_blogs/underwire/2009/07/bug_comiccon.gif)](http://stag-komodo.wired.com/underwire/tag/comic-con-2010/)The surreal, hyperviolent fantasy stars Vanessa Hudgens, Emily Browning, Jena Malone, Jamie Chung and Carla Gugino as ferocious loony-bin inhabitants who unleash their wildest fantasies as subjects of a bizarre psychological experiment. Malone, who plays Rocket (pictured above), said Saturday at a Comic-Con International panel, "People in this genre sometimes create one-dimensional characters, but in [Sucker Punch](http://suckerpunchmovie.warnerbros.com/) not only do we get to do kick-ass things and wield amazing weapons -- we also get to play intricate human beings." These new character posters offer a look at the fierce women of Sucker Punch, slated to open March 25.
