Many are convinced that the upcoming "The Batman" film starring Ben Affleck will have a big villain that is not disclosed as of date. One thing has been learned lately however, courtesy of Sienna Miller. It is not Catwoman because she will not be in the film as disclosed by a tweet.
Catwoman has been portrayed by several Hollywood female A-listers, including Michelle Pfeiffer, Anne Hathaway and Halle Berry. Though the role does not assure a rise of an actor's career, Miller still wants to be in the DC Extended Universe as catwoman to the extent of being willing to write her own part. However, it appears Affleck, who also serves as the writer and director of the Cape Crusader film does not intend to have Kyle.
What filmgoers mostly love and know best about Catwoman is the storyline that she was killed by her boss. Her character in DECEU is defined with a thrill of freakiness.
Should there be a Catwoman in Gotham hero movie, Affleck may want to cast somebody who is in their 30s, since picking someone younger would seem inappropriate. However, the position of DCEU with regard to female superheroes is still unclear.
Thirty-four-year-old Miller appeared in "American Sniper" and landed a role in the forthcoming thriller "Live By Night" starring Affleck. "The Batman" is a collaboration between and the Chief Creative Officer of DC Geoff Johns. The movie is said to have many villains, including Deathstroke the Terminator.
Deathstroke is an assassin and a mercenary who is created by George Perez and Marv Wolfman and debuted in "The New Teen Titans" #2 in 1980. In Affleck's film, he will be portrayed by "True Blood" and "Magic Mike" actor Joe Manganiello, The Wall Street Journal reported.
"The Batman" will be mostly an original story with some plots taken from the comics. Part of the plot will have the Gotham hero locked in the notorious Arkham Asylum, according to Batman News. Arkham Asylum is where many of Batman's scariest enemies spent their time either as patients or as employees.
