The Catwoman/Selina Kyle Casting Thread - Part 1

[shauner111]

Ayer creating Joker and Catwoman might be a problem. I mean, he created Killer Croc. Fine design, but he was just...there. His Deadshot is good but i think that has more to do with casting. Same with Harley/Margot.

I do think that it's too bad the Batman director wasn't the one to create all of these characters and cast them as he (Ben) sees fit. Even J.K Simmons and Jeremy Irons seem to be Snyder choices, as good as they are.

That's one thing I find really unfortunate about the shared universe model, especially one that is making Batman-universe spinoffs. You realize lose that element of one vision cohesively shaping the world.

Ruby Rose’s entertainment career is still young, but in just a few action roles, she has established herself as edgy beauty with acting chops. Her lean, athletic look and unique exotic face screams Catwoman.

What do you think?

 

[Wildcard]

This is my first time hearing of her but she certainly has a unique and memorable look. If she has the acting chops I wouldn't mind seeing what she could do with the character. Definitely.

What do you think?

That's perfect (no pun). Just have to see her act.

Ayer's tattoo fetish is ready-made here

Too bad she can't.

 

[David H.]

Too bad she's totally what Ayer is going for.

 

[BlueLanternKal]

Too bad she can't.

Serious? Never know with you.

[Guts]

Maybe they should use footage from the 1960's Batman series for Catwoman.

 

[KillerWolf]

I don't have it in me to say no to Julie Newmar.

 

[Rodrigo90]

Ruby Rose has got a bit of the Newmar look

 

[David H.]

 

[Rodrigo90]

She does! Minus the tattoos, of course

 

[KillerWolf]

She's from that "Orange is the New Black" show, isn't she? What you're referring to Rod, I can see it a bit. Anyway, she certainly does have a Selina Kyle-ish look to her, but I'm not sure she'd do well when it comes to more subtle elements of the performance.

 

[regwec]

A bit too trashy, I think.

 

[Wildcard]

I wouldn't say trashy, per se, but the tattoos don't do her any justice in the way of being a SK candidate.

 

[BH/HHH]

Isn't she abit young?

I'd personally go for Carla Cugino.

 

[Wildcard]

She's 30, so I'd say she's in the right age bracket, at least.

I'm still rocking with Paula Patton. My favorite suggestion thus far.

Affleck's playing a Batman in his 40s right? Selina Kyle is usually around the same age. Of course there's no reason because she's 30 she couldn't play older but she looks like she's in her 20s to me. I say go older and Carla Cugino would be perfect IMO. Plus I really want to see her in that outfit

 

[Rodrigo90]

Carla is looking a little like Sally Field these days... she's not looking like the spring chicken she used to be in Sin City Still good, but for Catwoman?

Looks good to me

Hathaway's Selina Kyle was about 10 years younger than Bale's Bruce Wayne.

I'd rather see an experienced actress, at least more than the one that was suggested. Mid 30's to mid 40's.
