RUMOR: You wouldn't believe who is wanted as Catwoman!
BlindsideDork \| 10:50 AM on 08.26.2008	34 comments

Seriously, this has to be a bit of false information or a joke. Is it April yet? This comes from The Daily Telegraph saying that studio exes wants this person and that she is Nolan's FIRST choice with a quote.

The new Catwoman will be the absolute opposite of Michelle Pfeiffer and Halle Berry's purring creations.

Also, Nolan is said to want this woman to portray Catoman "like a vamp in her twilight years." So who is this person? Do you think you can handle it? Do you?!

It is...

62-year-old singer...

Really? Perhaps Nolan believes Bruce Wayne belives in love after love. I guess with her, that vamp angle could work. It sure is a far cry from this...

But keep in mind, the same source already declared Johnny Depp is onboard as The Riddler in the upcoming movie The Caped Crusader. So take this news how you want it. I for one think it might be done and cliche but having an on the edge Bat being seduced by a provocative feline could be sweet and probably a whole lot better than disappointing previous Batman movie.

boners be gone!

Selma Hayek.

Kryptinite

Hmmm...hmmmmm....

Can she act? Because I can actually see that.

MrSadistic

Well they did say that Nolan wanted Catwoman to be a crazy birch past her prime. Dunno if that's true or not.

SnakeDude4Life

BHAA?!

-D-

Monica Bellucci. Done.

Cowzilla3

Tubatic

Given what Mr. Sadistic said, then yes. Cher.

Fuck. In that case, lets get Eartha Kitt and an ass ton of CG. Legitimize that creepy-sultry, always-seemed-a-bit-too-old, over the top CatWoman.

SnakeDude4Life

She would be a Couger?

Shit.

Seolfer Wulf

Should be Tina Turner.

We could get Ike Turner to play Batman.
I'd pay twice the price to see that.

Projectexodus

How about...

Eh? Eh?

ME4Twaffle

Cher is actually a rather accomplished actress, in case you didn't know, and I think this could actually be a very good fit for the role.

Here's her imdb page:
http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000333/

She's starred in a couple of above-average movies, such as

Moonstruck:
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0093565/

and Tea with Mussolini
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0120857/

and had a role in 2003's Stuck On You.
All in all, I think she could do it. I've been told she was amazing in Moonstruck.

RAB

GROSS

tazarthayoot

ike turner died last year. so theres that. if it aint a cg eartha kitt, you must acquit

pendelton21

NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO

aborto thefetus

Cher?

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

SLiFE

@Kryptinite
She won an Oscar back in '88 for Moonstruck. Whether or not that means she can act is open to interpretation though, I suppose.

Rockvillian

I'm all for Catwoman not being hot, or aging/crazy/weathered. Cher... eh, but I agree with Nolan's direction on this.

Attractive Catwoman has been done. It doesn't work (at least seriously).

Char Aznable

Marcia Cross is vomit-inducing.

Darkknight37

I say either Rosario Dawson or Angelina Jolie with 100% less junkie-looking body.

charlieduke

So are they changing the catwoman storyline to be some old crazy cat lady?

Corak

Don't believe 1 word of it.

The Duke

Old, and proven to be untrue by the way.

slackermonkey

um what? well she's still hotter than maggie gyllenhaal

Kryptinite

Eva Mendez.

Done. Actually I just want Eva to dress up and come over my house.

BlindsideDork

@The Duke

That's why I love the word Rumor, it's like powerful! Muwahahahahaha!

Sharpless

Not true. I don't even think Nolan is thinking about this stuff yet.

itemforty

/end argument

Andrew Godsey

a coworker printed out that article and showed it to me....i proceeded to take a bite out of it and spit it in her face.
Nolan is not that retarded.

nintendoll

I hope they can make Catwoman feline-esque without over-sexing her. That was my one fear about Angelina Jolie getting the part.

I'll wait until there's some sort of official announcement before getting all worked up.

MechaMonkey

lollapalooza

Tubatic

. . . I can't help it. Crass comment in-coming:

@ITEMFORTY

Is that the chick from The Order?

Are you trying to kill off the cast of First Knight?

We could have Alan Tudyk as The Riddler . . .

Tubatic

@ me

Shit. A Knight's Tale . . .

Clint

Meh, seems like bay idea, but i trust Christopher Nolan's judgment, so if he thinks it will work, it will.
