Everyone is already talking about the next Batman movie and this news will just fuel that fire. Cher is reportedly in talks to play Catwoman. Good choice, she probably already has the costume in her closet.
Cher is Catwoman?
The follow up to “The Dark Knight” is supposed to hit theaters by 2011. The studio is rumored to want both director Christopher Nolan and Christian Bale back.
“The studio is set to announce its plans for future DC movies in the next month. For now, though, it is focused on releasing four comic-book films in the next three years, including a third Batman film, a new film reintroducing Superman, and two movies focusing on other DC Comics characters.”
As for Catwoman, the 62-year-old Cher may follow in the footsteps of Michelle Pfeiffer and Halle Berry, but with a totally different twist on the character. A studio executive said:
“Cher is Nolan’s first choice to play Catwoman. He wants to her to portray her like a vamp in her twilight years. The new Catwoman will be the absolute opposite of Michelle Pfeiffer and Halle Berry’s purring creations.”
Hmm, twilight years. That’s a nice way to say it. They could have also said her first acting gig came over 30 years ago in “The Man from U.N.C.L.E.” Eventhough Cher is older, I think she’d be a great choice. She’s made some classics over the years. Remember “Mermaids” and “Tea with Mussolini?”
