well i think the purpose of the voice over would be so we wouldn't have to show her face. but then again, maybe we can see her face threw her green visor. or the voice can be altered so we don't know she's a girl.
I was thinking about the suit, and the Mr. Freezes' suit from batman forever keeps popping into my head. You probably could make a decent looking suit, but it would weigh like 150 pounds, so you'd have to hire some guy to run around in the suit and then fill in the faster actions(like flipping) with cg like they do in the spiderman movies
as for support characters, maybe samus has radio contact with the federation guys at some time in the movie, like she finds a transmiter or something and they fill in major plot points such as what she's supposed to be doing (most likely looking for the metroid larva)
but i think seeing how she looks without her suit would be the major payoff at the end, like the first time you beat the original nes metroid. even if it's like the credits rolling with her removing pieces of her suit or something and you don't see that she's a girl until the credits finish.
