Jessica Alba.

Jessica Biel has the looks, the athletic bod and that little bit of bad girl attitude necessary to pull it off.

My brother and I were talking about this the other day. I said Jessica Biel. He said Jessica Alba. In the end we decided they should mud wrestle for it.

Will you be needing a referee?
Now that idea is just ridiculous.
Mud’s way too opaque. We should use vegetable oil.

Another vote for Jessica Alba. Not the vapid blonde Jessica Alba of Fantastic Four, but the hot brunette Jessica Alba of Dark Angel. This gal was born to play Catwoman. She even has a bunch of black leather outfits already.

Hasn’t she ruined enough superhero movies?

Good lord…she makes my Eartha Kitt contribution look good…
God I hope they don’t put Catwoman in the next movie. There’ve been too many cheesy performances of that role on film to bring it back right now. One of the things that’s always held Batman back (in fact, the whole DCU in my opinion but I’m not gonna nerd-out too much in this thread . . . ) is the lack of good villains. He’s got The Joker and . . . The Joker and . . . ummmm . . . yeah . . .
(Counterpoint: The Scarecrow, who’s always kind of sucked in the comics, worked great on film in Batman Begins.)
And for the record, mswas is right about Naomi Watts. Nice to look at but damn near ruined Eastern Promises.

Amy Adams or Isla Fisher.
Is Sean Young too old? We know she had the enthusiasm.

Oh, that’s who I meant, not Erin Grey.

Well, yeah, as long as she doesn’t actually have to remain sane enough for the shooting of the entire movie, y’know…
Jennifer Connelly would be great.

Seriously. Are you trying to ruin a good thing?
Even though Batman brought its namesake and the Joker back to respectability, I think Catwoman’s wounds are too fresh. How about Zooey Deschanel as Harley Quinn (minus the Joker), a darker, reinterpreted Poison Ivy, or even Summer Glau as Talia al Ghul?
[QUOTE=mswas]
Naomi Watts is one of the worst actresses to ever live. God I really hope she doesn’t play Catwoman. She doesn’t have the slinky sex appeal to pull it off. Haven’t you seen Eastern Promises? A movie that would have been a 10/10 if not for Naomi Watts.

Wait, she was in Eastern Promises? I don’t remember her. I remember a scene with Viggo in his skivvies and naked Viggo and um … there was naked Viggo … what were we talking about again?
I agree that they should use a lesser known female villain not Catwoman and definitely no Angelina Jolie.

:eek:
Sometimes I’m shocked by how far my opinions are out of line with other people’s (not on anything that matters, just on trivial crap like who should play Catwoman :D)
Jennifer Connelly is one of the few major female actors I consider worse than Naomi Watts, and she’s about as sexy as a lump of fat sucked out of Boris Yeltsin’s butt.
(She is pretty, but there is often a difference between pretty and sexy, and in Jennifer Connelly’s case it’s a biiiiiiiiiggggg difference)
I think it would be interesting to have Riddler be the next villain. He could be redone as a very smart criminal who sends clues to the newspapers and police in order to gratify his ego. The pacing would be different and it would be more detective-y.

Just avoid Angelina Jolie. After seeing Wanted, I am no longer that into her. It has nothing to do with age. She just looks unhealthy. She needs to gain some weight, and the fear of putting on the catwoman suit would probably drive her further away from the pantry.[/QUOTE]
Oh it’s gotta be Angelina Joile, I can’t see anybody else. Plus, Wanted was filmed well over a year ago, and she has put on weight, considering she just delivered twins. I doubt she will let herself get so thin again, as even she said she knew she was not healthy while she was coping with her mother’s death.
I vote for Angelina, hands down.
[QUOTE=MoodIndigo1]
We need a bit of a break from Angelina Jolie, and she needs to take time off with her children. She isn’t looking healthy at all.
[/QUOTE]
Well the movie isn’t going to start filming next week, you know. Plus, she isn’t that thin at all anymore. Wanted was filmed well over a year ago.
She has said she loves the physical badass dominant female roles, so maybe…
