Yesterday we saw Jennifer Love Hewitt proclaim her desire to play Wonder Woman.  She's not the only one with the desire to wear tights.  
 
Today's heroine of choice is Catwoman Kate Beckinsale, no stranger to black tight fitting outfits, said she would "happily play Catwoman" if she was featured in an upcoming Batman movie.  In the past she was often considered a candidate to play Wonder Woman but she expressed she didn't really want to do that role.  Why the change in attitude over this character?

I don’t know if my husband would ever talk to me again if I refused to do it.  So I would definitely have to give it some very heavy consideration I think.


Beckinsale isn't the only one with the desire to play Catwoman.  Sienna Miller will be wearing a black tight fitting outfit in this Friday's G.I. Joe: The Rise Of Cobra.  Besides saying she would like to play Wonder Woman as well, she recently io9:

I wouldn't mind Catwoman. I would quite love to be Catwoman in a Chris Nolan adaptation, that would be an amazing role.  


Now keep in mind, there's been no official mention of Catwoman appearing in the next Batman movie (or any mention of the next movie) but stories like these get you wondering.  It's great that Hollywood actors have a desire to play comic book characters.  It adds to the comic book credibility.  The bigger the names that want to play these roles, the bigger the budgets can be for the movies (provided they have a decent script, director, etc).  Out of these two, who do you think would be a better Catwoman?  Or do you have someone else in mind?

Hmmm.... 
I would like to see Beckinsale in this role but I think they both might do a good job but Kate just seems right some how.  
BTW Gary Oldman said that Chris Nolan is working on the script now. It was on SCifiwire a couple weeks ago.

I think Miller but I think Stana Katic (Castle) would be a good Catwoman.

They're most likely going off the quote that s un confirmed saying that CN said he would think about doing a third film but would need someone like Cats to ground it.

I love Kate. She's such an incredibly sexy woman and not all that bad of an actor... still, I don't know if I could see her playing Catwoman. Maybe.

Kate would make a perfect Catwoman. She looks the part and has the acting chops. 
Beckinsale all the way.
