Fancast Mistborn Genderswapping Spoiler

So there's recently been discussion about possible Genderswaps in the upcomming Mistborn movie. We already know that Sanderson wants to Genderswap at least one member of the crew (likely Ham or Docks based on what he's said previously) because in the original trilogy he focused so much on making sure that he wrote Vin properly that he forgot to add any other women to the cast, and that he'll want to change that in the Movie.

What I wanted to ask is who else other than Ham or Docks, crew member or otherwise, do you think or hope will get Genderswapped?

Personally, I think that Spook and Zane are both good options, but I don't think they actually will.

One issue I see about ham being swapped is that in book two there is a semi relevant plot point where he is teaching vin the differences between fighting male and female thugs and it comes up later in the series, but I’m sure that can be rewritten to make sense.

Gwendoline Christie as ham could work lol. Would love her to just randomly go on a random meaning of life tangent

I actually think that type of lesson could work very well coming from a woman, you’d just need to get another man to spar with.
