Bummer if Kravitz isn’t back

Indeed, I was really looking forward for a BatCat that actually develops thorough a whole trilogy unlike the previous two who were one and dones.

99% of the time I cannot stand ScarJo...so I am not too excited about this but I will survive

I would genuinely bet money that the plan for Sel is as follows

Cameo at the end of Part II
Joint spinoff show with her and Sofia (this is optional, but would be a great way to bridge movies imo)
Joins back for Part III

ScarJo is a great dramatic actress but I don’t think she’s a great movie star. Marriage Story, Jojo Rabbit, Asteroid City were where she really shined, but she was kind of awful in Ghost in the Shell & Jurassic World (tbf, Gareth Edwards is terrible at directing actors in general). Maybe this’ll be a Jonah Hill in Batman ‘22 thing where the negotiations break down due to salary, just because I feel like there’s a great wealth of dramatic actresses who’ve never done movies on this scale and wouldn’t juice up the budget to this degree.

As an actress, she's very hit and miss for me. When she's right for the role, she can be pretty great.

If only there was another major franchise she was apart of, that proved her worth as a MOVIE STAR.

I thought she was rather decent in both World and Shell. The issue with the latter was the script.

I can absolutely see Scarlo in a sorta *****y businesswoman antagonist type role, personally. But I also don't exactly see her doing a good job as Ellie from The Last of Us

All depends on the archetype

 

[SwordOfMorning]

I don’t understand why people care about how expensive stars are. Beyond completely insane RDJ Doomsday scenarios (and even then I don’t really care).

A Gotham aristocrat, with ties to the Court of Owls.

If you only have the money to splurge on one big name actor, I feel like there’s way more exciting options than ScarJo lol. This is also assuming she’s not taking a pay cut for this

For sure. Don’t get me wrong: my first thought was that if she dropped out and got replaced by Sarah Snook, I’d very much be happy lol

Because studios have warped folks minds. It's no different then when big business has folks raging at worker.

It's art. It's all a splurge. A very worthwhile one.

 

[DarthSkywalker]

Time to get nuts.

She's a member of the Court, Andi, and has a son Robin's age who is also Hush. She's also banging Ives.

‘The Batman Part II’: Scarlett Johansson Eyeing New Role Opposite Robert Pattinson In Sequel

Scarlett Johansson is in talks to join Robert Pattinson in the DC Studios sequel The Batman Part II.

t.co

 

[BatsAndNights]

We gotta remember we had this even with Part 1 anywho, it's just that they couldn't match Jonah Hill's demands back then

Big names=People who are fans of that big name going to watch the movie who potentially wouldn't have=More money. All it comes down to

 

[Chris B]

No idea who she's playing but count me in with the sentiment that she's playing a villain, if not the main one.

 

[Luke995]

I never liked ScarJo. But I also hated Farrell before The Batman. So I guess I'll wait.

 

[TheGDBatman]

I've got zero beef with ScarJo. Online theorizing (from where I've been looking) seems to point to Phantasm. I could absolutely see this.

 

[OtherwiseKnownAs]

Poison Ivy currently trending on Twitter.

 

[TMP98]

THR confirms no Kratvitz. Feel like she’s Phantasm ngl, maybe that’s the main arc Bruce goes through here.

 

[Luke995]

I bet on Julie Madison as she is in Snyder's Zero Year. She is linked with Martha...

[emc5466]

Jeff Sneider says ScarJo’s role will be revealed to be “villainous in nature”. Sounds like the Phantasm.

 

[BobJM]

A Phantasm adaptation is a great way to further develop Bruce’s story. I’m sure Reeves won’t do a 1:1 remake if that ends up being the case.

ScarJo surprises me tbh, but I like her movies for the most part. She’s better in dramas than in popcorn blockbusters but I think Reeves’ script is probably closer to the former than the latter.

Otherwise, we could get a Julie Madison or Silver St. Cloud character that’s secretly part of the Court like that Batman vs Robin animated movie

 

[Stringer]

Phantasm would definitely fit with what Reeves said about adapting a villain we hadn't seen in live action before. Isn't that what he said?
