At this point I have heard dozens of rumors regarding the third installment of the Batman 3 film. Although none of those rumors are official (Angelina Jolie as Catwoman, Cher as Catwoman, Rachel Weisz as Catwoman…) I am still quite curious as to whom, if anyone, they would select to play the legendary comic book goddess.
Not Rachel Weisz please… she is, how you say, bland and painful to watch.
As for Cher: worst rumor ever! That almost like saying Jabba the Hut is set to play Victoria Beckham in a Spice Girls movie. Do you see how that just doesn’t work?

Who would you cast as Catwoman alongside Christian Bale?
guest
i’ll take the role
guest
What does it matter? Nobody they cast in that role could ever hold a candle to Julie Newmar or Lee Meriwether.
guest
I’m a huge Catwoman fan and although I think Angelina would be perfect for the role…I don’t see her taking it.

@CEC32@xanga - someone has to pick up the pieces of Catwoman that Halle Berry’s version destroyed.

@irish_emerald21@xanga - I don’t think she would take it as well. There have been some rumors about her preparing for the role, but they have been denied. I think Nolan might go with an unknown for this role. His casting choices for the females have always been unexpected.

I really think Angelina Jolie would be really good at it. She’s got that fierceness in her eyes =]
And, she’s gorgeous haha doesn’t hurt
guest
I don’t care who take the role …
I just care about the role can/can not make people inside thw movie …..

Eva Green (and it’s pronounced “Gren” since she is half french and half swedish :p). She has a feline sight, really dark but luminoux (paradoxal). I really think she would perfectly fit the role.
The Marvel picture makes me thinking of Noomi Rapace too. She may be expected in this role too in fact. (she plays in “Millenium”)
guest
I really don’t know who should have that role… but hey, as long as that person is good…. then I’m good
I love batman
I’m excited.

CEC32@xanga.com:
To be fair, you cannot really bring Lee Meriwether or Julie Newmar into the picture. They played a different interpretation of Catwoman. It’d be akin to comparing Jack Nicholson to Heath Ledger. You can’t. It’s comparing an apple to an orange. Those were 2 completely different Jokers.
If Nolan does Catwoman, it’ll probably be nothing seen before–you know, like a lesbian, or Maggie Gyllenhaal back from the dead.

They couldn’t find a better psudeo-villian than that?

@GreenEyesNine@xanga - I have to disagree. Although Nolan does make changes to the character, making Rachel Dawes the next Catwoman would make the entire comic book world to get out their pitchforks. It would be the worst possible idea. He would stay true to Selina Kyle’s character, but make her darker, edgier, and sexier. I think he, if anyone, can make her worth watching.
guest
Personally- cat woman just doesn’t do justice to a Dark Knight sequel. Pick another villain….

i think angelina would be an awesome catwoman…but i don’t see her doing it either…
i could see rosario dawson in a role like that, actually.

@Olyachka@xanga - I agree, if he does that, it will be a great disaster lol

@Begierde - Maggie was awful. Now, I don’t have anything against her per se, her character was weak, but I highly doubt she has the cajones to carry off someone like Kyle. If Nolan does what I think he might he will make Kyle the jolt that brings Bruce back into Batman-hood. She can be that kind of lover that forces him to embrace his dark side instead of fighting it. Then bring in the Riddler, make him a merciless killer and you’ve got yourself a plot. Except the Riddler was never a violent type of villian. He was more mischevious if anything… I don’t know. I suppose they can make him a teensy bit more violent.

Rose Byrne!
guest
i could see megan fox as a young catwoman.
even though i don’t like her that much.
guest
i can’t see rachel weisz as catwoman at all but shes a fantastic actress and shes gorgeous!! i’ve always loved her work!! hello, the mummy movies geez!
lol cher… that made me laugh… once again cher is the shit but no, not for catwoman
angelina could be good but i still have a hard time picturing that..
guest
Angelina Jolie would own that role. One of her nicknames IS Catwoman. She would revive what Halle Berry destroyed.
If Megan Fox gets it, I won’t watch it. She is NOT the next Jolie.
guest
RACHEL WEISZ ISNT BLAND AND PAINFUL TO WATCH!!!! >.< I love her!! She’s got this amazing classy look to her and only the KEWLEST British accent evverrrr!!!! okay… so I sound a little immature, but I loved her in the Mummy movies and everything sucked after she left in the third one… (that was so disappointing -.-) but I agree, I don’t think she should be the next catwoman… she seems more of the sweet shy type… not the catwomen type at all. but i dont think she’s bland!
guest
and i thought they were putting the riddler in for the next dark knight movie…..Apparently not. :\
guest
I couldn’t see any three of them doing the role. Cher even being mentioned made me laugh.
I would possibly go with the likes of Kate Beckinsale, Scarlett Johansson, or Jessica Alba.
guest
uhmm, I don’t really like catwoman..
I like the idea of scarlett johansson, but that’s just because I love her haha
guest
The idea of cher as catwoman makes me want to vomit a little.
i don’t like scarlett johanson at all, but i could see them picking up angelina jolie, megan fox. . . I don’t know honestly.

Maggie Gyllenhaal in The Dark Knight was like a bad look-alike for Katie Holmes. I think Angeline Jolie could be a good Catwoman but there are other actresses.
guest
DUDE! Victoria Beckham! Just not David!
No, seriously. Jolie would be awesome; Catwoman has to have that disturbed-about-to-wig-out look. Although Michelle Pfeiffer still looks good enough to do it; that woman hasn’t a single line on her face. And though I hated the thought of her doing it (Pfeiffer) the reality was she was superb.
guest
ehh don’t really care who gets the part, as long as they play it well
orchid / 132 posts
Michelle Pfeifer was an excellent catwoman in my opinion. Very demonic. I loved it. And personally i LOVE Rachel Weisz, I could totally see her being Catwoman. There’s something about her. Either way, I hope they don’t screw up Batman 3. And he better not do that stupid raspy voice thing again, it was so unbearable to watch in the Dark Knight.

i’d say angelina jolie over megan fox just because catwomen needs to be played by someone who has some street cred. Also, catwomen is a strong woman, and i think angelina tops megan fox in that area.
guest
I think Ali Larter, Nikki/Jessica/new chick off of Heroes, would be a great choice. I think she’s around the right age and I can definitely see her playing Cat Woman.
guest
i don’t really care because i’m not an especially big fan of batman movies, but if angelina were cast i would go see it.
guest
someone that can do their own stunts, I’d like to see an asian take the role
guest
I really hope it’s not any of those three, I would be disappointed with any choice from them. But I really can’t think of anyone to play Catwoman.
guest
i like rachel weisz, i think she’ll be super hot next to christian bale.
guest
@Olyachka@xanga:
I was just proposing possibilities. I think that Rachel Dawes would be a horrible mistake as well, and hope that it would never happen.
My point was that if Nolan does Catwoman, he would probably do something that the public has not seen yet (and let’s face it, that is something that they haven’t seen–it’s heretical to comic book readers).

i just cant see angelina jolie being catwoman tho =/
orchid / 107 posts
I hope they just avoid catwoman altogether. This Batman series is way too awesome for her.
Also… Christian Bale is sexy. That had to be said.
orchid / 220 posts
@Olyachka@xanga - Evangeline Lily
orchid / 220 posts
@dulish@xanga - They won’t avoid it. In the Dark Knight they hint towards her appearence. Bruce Wayne asks if the suit will stand up against more dogs and Alfred tells him it will protect him against cats.
guest
Cameron Diaz came to mind, but I don’t really care. I’m more interested in what will happen with Spiderman IV.
guest
I agree! all those people are like, UH NO… Angelina is more Tomb Raider. I think that Anne Hathaway or Jennifer Garner would be great options. Anne Hathaway does well being a slick action hero…
guest
Yeah, those rumors are too ridiculous to even think about. But here’s my list of potentials:
1) Kate Beckinsale
2) Kiera Knightley – mainly because she can cop an attitude when she needs to 3) OLIVIA WILDE!!!! – she’s amazing!
guest
I actually would like if Rachel Weisz got the part, I like her. The third mummy epic failed because of the recasting of evelyn and alex, and of course how ridiculous it was. And can you say Constantine? Awesome movie, she’s not a bad actress at all.
In any case, it doesn’t matter who they choose because regardless whoever it is will do the best she can with the character. Personally, Michelle Pfeiffer will always be catwoman to me.

scarlett johanson always has that clueless look on her face. lol i doubt she could play a good villain. i could see kate beckinsale as a cat woman.. she looked so sexy in a tight black suit in Underworld. and she has that fierceness in her eyes. i think angelina jolie is probably too old for the role and megan fox is too new in the game to take on sucha big role.
guest
@Begierde - Ouuu, good choice!
guest
cher as catwoman??? *lol*
guest
OH I just thought of another one! Angela Parker from The Pretender! She was one evil woman. And Ali Larter would also do well.
guest
Oh GOD NO. Please don’t let it be Angelina Jolie, she just does not fit the role. It should be someone w/ a likeness to Audrey Hepburn. The most recent cat woman is modeled after her after all, thank you Adam Hughes.
guest
I think charlize theron or eliza dushku would be a good catwoman for batman 3.I respect megan fox but I think she shouldn’t be catwoman because she is not around cristean bale’s age.

Angelina Jolie and Megan Fox either one would be a HUGE mistake. These women has NO class, something that the role requires volumes of. Kate Beckinsale… couldn’t act her way out of a paper bag. The only reason she’s gotten anywhere is because of her looks. Rachel Weisz is my pick. She’s beautiful, classy, has plenty of attitude and would look great opposite Bale.
