James Gunn confirms the plans for Catwoman in his brave and bold film

Batman’s future in the DCU is slowly starting to take shape and James Gunn He confirmed that one of the most legendary characters of Dark Knight is already on his radar.

While the director was attentive to which details he shares The brave and the boldHe recently gave fans a small but exciting update indicating a family face that enters this new chapter.

Gunn had previously revealed that he expects The brave and the bold to arrive before the decade is over. He was a little more protected when he was asked about the direction of the story, even by making fun of the fans on the fact that Damian Wayne will be part of the film saying that they will have to “wait to see”.

But a Gunn character is not hiding interest is Selina Kyle. When he was asked directly on the thread if Catwoman was part of his plans for the DCU, Gunn replied: “Oh for sure”.

Catwoman has always been one of the most iconic and complex allies and enemies of Batman, so it makes sense that it would be part of this new story. Fans have already seen Zoë KravitzIt is a vision put on the ground on Selina Kyle in Matt Reeves’ The BatmanBut since that universe continues separately with Robert Pattinson Like Caped Crusader, Gunn’s Dc will require a new catwoman together with a brand new Batman.

Of course, this leads to fans’ casting conversations and some names that have been mentioned include Ana de Armasthat according to what was once reported in the mix for Reeves’ film. Then there is Eiza Gonzále, Adelaide Kane (Reign, Grey’s Anatomy), AND Euphoria star Alexa DemieAll which have the charisma and the edge necessary to give life to Catwoman’s duality.

Selina Kyle has always walked between light and shadow, balancing the cunning intelligence with seductive charm and that feline grace brand. De Armas and González, in particular, already have a proven action experience.

Anyone who ends in the role, the most important factor will be chemistry with the DCU Batman. The dynamic between Bruce Wayne and Selina Kyle has called some of the best Batman stories ever told, both in comics and on the screen.

For now, Gunn does not reveal who his Batman will be, even if names like 1923 Brandon Sklenar they were floated by fans. With The brave and the bold Still several years later but firmly on the list of DC Studios, the casting announcements will probably start dripping in the second half of this decade.

Until then, it is exciting to know that Gunn does not overlook Catwoman. If you go a road in the DCU, it could prepare the ground for an incredible narrative and a new interpretation of one of the most fascinating characters in Gotham.
