To me, the most important aspect of casting Zatanna is a girl next door quality. Zee isn't tortured or mysterious or haughty-- her appeal lies in her being extremely approachable and immediately likable. Basically, the ideal Zee is like a female Superman, except more easy going and relatable for a being of nigh infinite power. Not only does Zooey Deschanel fit the bill, but I'm pretty sure she was Ryan Sook's reference for her Seven Soldiers mini-series.
