I see that they've cast Catwoman for the next Batman film
and it's http://www.popcrunch.com/angelina-jolie-catwoman-role/">here

Pretty unimaginative choice, if you ask me.

1. I think it's a perfect choice.
I think Ms. Jolie would make a great Catwoman.

And Julie Newmar said it's a great choice.

5. Well...
She's kind of the obvious choice with her rather exotic looks but I would have liked to have seen a lesser known, perhaps foreign actress.

2. Judi Dench? WTF?
She's a fine actress and all that, but as Catwoman? I just can't see it.

4. Can't be any worse than that horror that Halle Berry did
Cleaning cat poop off my foot this morning was more entertaining than watching that movie.

6. It's like a never ending circle
Edited on Wed Jul-30-08 01:13 PM by MrScorpio
"The Fox" character in the graphic novel, WANTED, was modeled after Halle Berry



Who was portrayed by Angelina Jolie in the movie.

Now a character portrayed last by Berry in the Catwoman stinker will be played by Jolie.



Every action role in Hollywood should be played by these two in the future.

Give the people what they want; more Berry and more Jolie!

7. I want them to play conjoined twins
The resulting film would shatter all previous box office records.

8. That's according to Julie Newmar. She's very statuesque..

11. This doesn't say they've cast her. It says she wants the role.
A role that nobody knows even exists.

12. They've said they don't plan to use Catwoman in any film.
Your link is speculation from Julie Newmar that Angelina Jolie wants the role.

14. Where did "they" say that?
And who was the "they"? Christopher Nolan?

15. David Goyer
http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/movies/a109540/batman-scribe-rules-out-penguin-catwoman.html?rss

The Dark Knight co-writer David Goyer has revealed that Catwoman and the Penguin are unlikely to feature in future Batman sequels.

16. Thanks!
Although in light of his statement, it's odd that Nolan didn't edit out the "Batsuit resistant to cats" line in The Dark Knight.

OTOH that's not the only editing misstep in TDK.

17. Yawn. Catwoman is the lamest of Batman characters.
I don't know why the hell they would waste time putting her in a movie.
