Deadline Hollywood reports “The Dark Knight Rises” will feature two female leads – a romantic interest for Bruce Wayne and a villain.

I’m long on record regarding who I want the next villain to be. And I think we can agree that Catwoman fits a little better in the Nolan Bros.' Batverse than does Poison Ivy.

According to Deadline, the six actresses meeting writer-director Christopher Nolan about these two roles are said to be:

Anne Hathaway
Keira Knightley
Blake Lively
Natalie Portman
Naomi Watts
Rachel Weisz

So no Amy Adams, Rachel McAdams, Kate Beckinsale, Emily Blunt, Elizabeth Banks, Evangeline Lilly, Maggie Grace, Lucy Liu or Sean Young.




I know some of you don't want Catwoman but I've been hoping for her since the beginning. She just fits into this universe.

Ok. I don't understand the argument for a villain with no powers not fitting Nolans vision but what female Batman villains would be better?

Btw, I'm fine with Talia Al Ghul and would be ok if that's who it turned out to be.

interesting, but no one on that list could pull of Catwoman, IMO

Angelina Jolie was born to play that role.

This news pleases me.

I'm pulling for Portman to land one of the roles.

id take any of those as lead roles except for anne hathaway and blake lively. i think it'd be difficult to take both of those seriously

eta: im pulling for naomi watts and kierra knightly

Fair enough but Nolan got Batman outta the rubber suit so I don't doubt they'd come up with something interesting for her.

It will be Hathaway to turn down, Knightley and Portman would not be good fits

It has to be a woman that looks athletic and can at least put a little muscle on. KK and Portman are way too petitte for this IMO.
