Casting Catwoman


I've mentioned Catwoman casting more than once, and even had a poll a while back (wasn't very conclusive though, "someone else" was the winner). So I decided to try to come up with a list of every name I've heard associated with the role in order to start a series of polls to come up with your favorite(s).

A few notes:
  • The majority of these aren't even rumors, just someone on a website somewhere said they thought she should play Catwoman.

  • I don't in any way endorse these selections, in fact I think about half of them were suggested by guys (or girls) with a crush on an actress with no regard for how she'd be as Catwoman

  • If your favorite isn't listed, please leave a comment so she can be included in the polling!

  • Names are linked to their imdb pages, cause I had no idea who some of these women were.

  • Forgive any typos, this is a really long list. If I do this for other characters, it should be shorter.

Zhang Zi Yi (The Secret Life of Geisha) since Bruce Wayne seem to have a connection with Hong Kong people in both films.

Other names that popped out in my head: Jennifer Love Hewitt, Jennifer Aniston, Reese Witherspoon, Shanon Doherty, Queen Lafita (haha!), Drew Barrymore

Zhang Ziyi's already on there as Ziyi Zhang (she seems to be credited as that more these days), but I'll add the rest (you guys are nuts).
