The Catwoman/Selina Kyle Casting Thread - Part 2

Vanessa Kirby Addresses Catwoman Casting Rumors (Exclusive)

I would be fine with that

 

[Marvel united]

Cast her, Matt.

 

[TheGuy]

Nice. Hopefully we get similar interviews from other actresses we have fan cast. And she has a brilliant answer for looking good in the suit. Doing squats.

Can we please get an American to be her? Black, white, Asian-American, just as long as she’s from the USA.

I mentioned Jessica Stroup (who's American) a couple pages ago. She certainly has a great look for the character, at least, but not sure about her acting ability: The Catwoman/Selina Kyle Casting Thread - Part 2

Saw some clickbait earlier about how Nicki Minaj was supposedly interested in the role, but the Twitter account referenced in the article is fake . Nice bullet we dodged, there...

(Not that I'd be worried it'd actually happen tho since they seem to know what they're doing)

Based on Knock Knock and Blade Runner 2049, Ana de Armas has played many aspects of Selina's character that makes her tick: flirtatious, craziness, free-spirited and caring. Plus she had great chemistry with Gosling too who typically plays poker-faced characters. Batman is that type of character. Which is why she remains my favorite actress for the role.

I've only seen her in 2049 and, while she does have those attributes and does have chemistry with Gosling (who would've been dope as Bats but alas), she kinda lacked that sort of mean streak that's also required for Selina. That wasn't really required of her character in 2049 though, so I shouldn't knock her off just for that

I also really like the suggestion of Cristina Rodlo though after seeing Too Old To Die Young. Either Selina or Talia would be ideal roles for her

You should see Knock Knock then.

 

[Invader Joker]

You should see Knock Knock then.

Or better yet, just youtube clips because that film is garbage

 

[Nemeres]

Bit by bit, Ana de Armas is becoming disqualified. It's *never* the pick that people bring up the most.

 

[Invader Joker]

Yes. She's just too obvious. I don't see her getting the role.

 

[Kane52630]

Anne Hathaway was also too obvious back in the TDK days and she still got the part. Ana is not at all disqualified.

[Rorschach2012]

Stephanie Corneliussen has the look more than anyone else that has been suggested, but I only saw her on Legends of Tomorrow and it was some of the worst acting I’ve ever seen. I guess she is good in other stuff??

 

[TheComicbookKid]

Okay. I watched two episodes of Imposters. She would kill as Catwoman.

 

[TheGuy]

Yes. She's just too obvious. I don't see her getting the role.

The quality of Knock Knock does not disqualify an actress.

You mean PornHub right, because literally the highlights of that movie can't be found on YouTube.

There was no way in hell Anne was obvious for anything in that series. I definitely recall a lot of hesitancy and surprise for her casting, on these boards.

There was a bit, not to mention some weird misogynistic fixation on whether or not she was sufficiently hot to be Catwoman (anyone remember those lovely conversations?), but it didn't seem that shocking if memory serves. Anne was on a serious roll back in 2011/2012.

 

[Greenlite]

Thought Anne came out of the left field

The press wanted Angelina and Depp (Riddler)
