Batwoman

Character » Batwoman appears in 149 issues.

After being dismissed from the military for being a lesbian, Kate Kane would live a directionless party-girl heiress life, until a chance encounter with Batman on a dark night, inspired her to find a new calling in life, later adopting the mantle of Batwoman.

What do you think about my little main cast for a Batwoman movie?

Hendricks might be a bit old?

I've always thought that Amy Adams would make a good Batwoman...

I like the cast except for Kate herself. Christina isn't... right.

Christina's not right for the part... my first choice would be Rooney Mara. I also think Emily Blunt would be good.

@gavinsanity254: I didn't know about Rooney Mara, she would be good for Batwoman too :)

All these women seem too lithe for Kate Kane. I would probably choose someone more like Katee Sackhoff, although not neccesarily her.

@spideygirl: As much as I have a huge crush on Christina Hendricks I don't know. She seems too cheerful to play Batwoman, but yes use a redhead. Now the question is ill the media use Batwoman at some point.

Maybe it's because I've been watching the first season of Homeland, but I like Claire Danes for Kate. I think she could pull off the right mix of outer strength/inner vulnerability.

Kate needs an unknown, we should also not be looking for redheads. Look for vampiric skin and give her a wig/dyejob, Kate's hair is not ginger-red anyway, it is blood red which does not exist among natural haircolors.

A Batwoman movie as a concept seems absurd, although I'd love to see her appear in a Batman movie. She's quickly becoming one of my favorite characters

Jennifer Lawrence as Batwoman

Jennifer Lawrence as Batwoman

Isn't she a little too young, or at least seems a little too young?

@v_scarlotte_rose: A Batwoman movie won't be seeing the light any time soon, so i believe the best way is to think about young actresses who would play the role in the next 10 years or even more.

@dtaranguiz: I suppose that makes sense.

I kinda doubt it would happen at all though. Unless she gets really popular with the general public somehow.

It's much more likely we'll see her pop up in a supporting role (a cameo, more likely) in a future Batman film. Rooney Mara looks a lot like her (and is still in her 20s, although she would have to dye her hair).

How bout Jessica Chastain? shes a fiery red head who could have me believe she's kicking ass.
