Anne Hathaway Doesn't Want To Say Goodbye to Selina/Catwoman

Christopher Nolan has said he's done with Gotham's iconic characters now that "The Dark Knight Rises" is done, but the director thinks Anne Hathaway should continue on with the role of Catwoman - but is the actress ready to suit of again as the sexy Selina Kyle?

Access Hollywood's Michelle Beadle sat down with Anne at the junket for her latest movie, "Les Miserables," where we asked the actress about possibly playing the Batman role again.

"No one's talked to me about it," Anne said when asked about a possible spin-off.

"I would love it. I actually, it's so embarrassing, I was at a press Q & A thing the other night for a screening of 'The Dark Knight,' and the moderator asked me, 'So what was it like to say goodbye to the character?' And I burst into tears, because I miss her," the 30-year-old said. "It just makes me cry. I miss her. I love Selena so much and I love her presence in my life and getting to... I'm crying again."

Adding, "So assuming there was enough Kleenex in the world, I would love to do a spin-off."

Watch her teary-eyed response


Back in July, Access asked Nolan about working with the actress as she brought Catwoman to life.

"Anne is incredibly precise and articulate about the psychology of the character. She's really built it from the ground up, it's just a delight to watch her perform," the director told Access at the time. "The things she does in those heels is not to be taken lightly."

The director was quick to squash any notion that he would helm a Catwoman spinoff, but said he thinks Anne should continue on.

"For me, Gotham and these characters, I'm done. I've told our story and I'm moving on," he continued, explaining that he'd love to see Anne play the character again under another director's guidance. "I certainly think she deserves it, she's incredible."

anne was a flawless selina and people still dumb enough to hate don't want to admit they were wrong.

So true.
greenfairy_87 4th-Dec-2012 06:57 am (UTC)
Damn straight.
m_pendulum 4th-Dec-2012 07:05 am (UTC)
Or they could just not like her that much...I'll admit she wasn't horrible, but she wasn't amazing either. I don't mind that people adore her, but not everyone who dislikes her is a mindless hater.
larrylurker 4th-Dec-2012 07:18 am (UTC)
I'll admit she wasn't horrible

I know that took a lot

gurrl, I was rooting pretty hard-core for her pre-TDKR, but even I can admit that she was just not good.
celtic_thistle 4th-Dec-2012 07:14 am (UTC)
mmmhmmmmmm she was awesome.
__papillon 4th-Dec-2012 07:54 am (UTC)
she's going to be a flawless fantine too and people will have to admit they were wrong twice this year, ontd is going to implode on itself lol.

ia and she was one of the best things in that hot mess of a movie
firstblush 4th-Dec-2012 01:21 pm (UTC)
I enjoyed her catwoman in the movie, but I don't know if I want a spin off, connected to that batman universe to be honest.
ohkkrista 4th-Dec-2012 01:40 pm (UTC)
I thought she was pretty mediocre. She fit in with the universe but I DNW a spinoff.
ectypes 4th-Dec-2012 03:02 pm (UTC)
i usually find anne's acting really forced and really transparent, but as selena she was pretty good. i can't stand her in literally anything else bc she reminds me of a high school drama student.
cluelessraf 4th-Dec-2012 03:11 pm (UTC)
This so much. She was the best character for me, Bane was disappointing (mainly the odd choice of voice)
endingonfire 4th-Dec-2012 03:37 pm (UTC)
she was the only bright spot in the film for me. Then again, the film was altogether hugely disappointing.
ladysherlock 4th-Dec-2012 03:57 pm (UTC)
You are so smart Natasha!
ladyofmachinery 4th-Dec-2012 09:09 pm (UTC)
I was crazy crazy against her playing Catwoman. So much so that I actually didn't even see the movie in theatres (and I'm a MASSIVE Batman fan and have been reading the comics since I was a kid) - I watched it recently since I'm doing the BluRay promo for the Canadian market and got the bluray several weeks ago - and I liked the movie but I really liked Anne as Catwoman. So I stand corrected in that regards. I didn't expect to like her at all.
hellb 5th-Dec-2012 11:38 am (UTC)
LOL, please, she was forgettable as fuck. No one remembers her as Catwoman, and in the future, she will never come to mind when the character is thought of (like Michelle Pfeiffer or Julie Newmar do).

Get over it.
itscomicrelief 4th-Dec-2012 06:45 am (UTC)
IDG this irrational hate of her

I liked her as Catwoman.

Also, she's an amazing Fantine. Haters can gtfo, because she was amazing.
isntdaveone 4th-Dec-2012 06:46 am (UTC)
a CatWoman spinoff, but with a better/more capable actress.
yourlivewire 4th-Dec-2012 06:54 am (UTC)
ok
springmoon 4th-Dec-2012 07:05 am (UTC)
idk, even Halle Berry couldn't pull it off.
allybally12345 4th-Dec-2012 12:47 pm (UTC)
IDK. I think Halle could have been a great Catwoman with a better movie and better direction. She tried her best with what she was given. :(
jeveuxmacaron 4th-Dec-2012 01:01 pm (UTC)
ditto. i voted no because i don't want to see anne in the role again.

i don't get how she gets so much praise. she's all right but she's not this amazing actress everyone says.
kamikashi 4th-Dec-2012 06:48 am (UTC)
she was good. even if you didnt think she was good i would say at least average. just finding ways to hate her.
ljubavirakija 4th-Dec-2012 06:51 am (UTC)
I want a spin-off sfm. However, NHF a lackluster film. There needs to be a quality script (preferably one that uses the comics as a source material); and, a dedicated director (i would give my firstborn to have kathryn bigelow)

Right? This is the least useful pose ever.
crup 4th-Dec-2012 07:56 am (UTC)
i get that this demonstrates her ~cat-like agility etc. but what is she actually going to do from here besides break her hip?
hellb 5th-Dec-2012 11:40 am (UTC)
LMAO. I do this pose everyday when I workout. It's not that fucking difficult...
alwayscaffeine 4th-Dec-2012 06:53 am (UTC)
She was a good catwoman but her performance is so overrated mostly because people had such low expectations for her.
fauxkaren 4th-Dec-2012 08:04 am (UTC)
Well I think her performance is rated so highly because the rest of the movie was so bad.
hellb 5th-Dec-2012 11:41 am (UTC)
She was "mediocre" and "not terrible" at absolute best. Anyone who thinks otherwise is either a crazed fan or has incredibly low standards.
rainbowren 4th-Dec-2012 06:54 am (UTC)
I haven't even seen the Dark Knight, and I'd much rather watch a Catwoman spin-off!
fengshoegal 4th-Dec-2012 06:56 am (UTC)
Anne's Catwoman/Selina was literally the only entertaining thing about TDKR, impractical hair and boots aside, but I can't really see how they would do a spin-off. I mean Selina is meant to be retired and living with Bruce, a prequel might be interesting I guess.
pixiedivision 4th-Dec-2012 10:01 am (UTC)
it makes me sad, they could have given her character and backstory more depth, as wel with Bane. They're both such great characters in the comics but they've been crammed into this movie.
freeze_i_say 4th-Dec-2012 12:50 pm (UTC)

bagelsvswaffles 4th-Dec-2012 06:57 am (UTC)
I'd be okay if Nolan did a prequel. Don't try to launch a franchise or anything, just a stand alone movie focusing on her back-story.
artpopart 4th-Dec-2012 08:15 pm (UTC)
I've, like most people, have had enuff of Nolan. Lighten it up!
bagelsvswaffles 6th-Dec-2012 05:13 am (UTC)
I mean, I'm ready to move on from him too, but if it's going to be set in his Batman world, then I'd want it to be him.

But the next Batman movie? I want it to be someone else. Someone who isn't obsessed with making it ~realistic.
senkig 4th-Dec-2012 06:57 am (UTC)
still bitter about the NYFCC and anne's snub
like i think you're great sally field, and i like you, but you were weak in lincoln
it might just have been the way mary todd was written but apart from the party scene i spent most of my time cringing whenever she was onscreen
derrobitch 4th-Dec-2012 07:08 am (UTC)
wasn't anne runner up? that's not a snub lol
fauxkaren 4th-Dec-2012 08:06 am (UTC)
Yeah. Sally Field's performance was just... ok. But she's pretty much the only woman in an Oscar Bait Movie, so she's going to be getting nominations.
chimbleysweep 4th-Dec-2012 12:41 pm (UTC)
I thought she was great in Lincoln.
jeveuxmacaron 4th-Dec-2012 01:03 pm (UTC)
i'm sorry but she was a fantastic mary lincoln and portrayed a character who was actually a complex human being unlike nolan's ladies.
ellaellaeheheh 4th-Dec-2012 02:16 pm (UTC)
its just the NYFCC....
xmint 4th-Dec-2012 07:02 am (UTC)
She was good in that role, but spinoffs are rarely any good.
springmoon 4th-Dec-2012 07:03 am (UTC)
I would like to see her in another Batman/Gotham film, but maybe not one where she is the star.
