Cool. As with some other actors, props to her for not feigning childhood fandom in comic books if it wasn't there. Seems like the cast is generally pretty conceptually invested in the roles.

@teefurtree -

She said her inspiration to take the role comes more from the movies, especially Michelle Pfeiffer's portrayal of Catwoman which inspired her a lot back then.

@teefurtree - Chris Eccelstone did that with Thor too. People were always asking him in interviews "what comics did you read as a kid?" and he's just like "Nah mate I was just playing football the whole time"

"I was never into a lot of comic books but that world was always really intriguing to me."

If I had a nickel for every time an actor playing a CB character said that..

I mean, come on guys, y'all are doing it for the crazy nerd moolah.

Oh here we go again and doesn't know squat about the property but what she thinks she can change or bring in.

@Matador - With Catwoman, it's acceptable. Her adaptations, have made her a pop culture icon. Along with Len Wein, Jeph Loeb, and Ed Brubaker making her an antihero.

Nightwing1015 - 1/21/2020, 2:15 PM
@Matador - Well to be fair actors usually educate themselves pretty quickly. You always see them reading comic books after they get cast in order to properly research the role.

And now, you see them quizzed on their comic character histories on sites like Buzzfeed. So there's probably more pressure for them to know their shit
Matador

@Nightwing1015 - But do they really though?
Matador
Matador - 1/21/2020, 8:45 PM
@WAKANDABATMANFOREVER - I'm not thinking bad about Catwoman just this actress trying to use this character for her own benefits.
Nightwing1015
Nightwing1015 - 1/22/2020, 4:02 AM
@Matador - Yeah I think so. You hear Pattinson talking about reading Batman comics. Certainly Margot Robbie read tons of Harley Quinn stuff

@Nightwing1015 - Okay they may be part of the exception. As much as I dislike Robbie's Harley I gotta respect her enthusiasm to create something that she has found some love into the comic book world.

I much rather actors come out and say they aren't familiar with the source material and show a genuine interest to learn more. This is preferable over the actors who pretend to have been the biggest fans of comics growing up. Sometimes you can tell who is just blatantly lying.

@VicSage - In retrospect they both suck ass.

@VicSage - Yeah, like I know Christian Bale doesn't give af about Batman, but he still the best live action interpretation, so it's cool.

Ready for a look at the Bat-suit. Best way to take the temperature of this production.

Well, to start with, he's a Hufflepuff, and she's a Slytherin... Weird.

@clornelas - Bruce would be a Ravenclaw I think. Maybe even a Slytherin.

Don't like her casting along with mostly everyone else in this movie but I'll admit that's a very accurate understanding of the character.

I wasn't really sold on her as Catwoman, but that banner image does wonders. Really wonder what see brings to the role

Best looking CW thus far IMO. And there have been been some stunners, but she got Lisa Bonet and Lenny Kravitz DNA. JS.
