Megan Fox to star in Dark Knight sequel?

Film buffs campaigning for Transformers actress to play Catwoman in next Batman project

Sunday, 31 August 2008

Batman fans are petitioning for Megan Fox to play the villain in the next instalment of the movie franchise.

An online poll found Catwoman is the baddie most filmgoers would like to see take on the Caped Crusader – and the 22-year-old Transformers star is the actress they want to play her.

But producers are said to favour Cher for the role previously played by Michelle Pfeiffer and Halle Berry.

'Cher is [director] Christopher Nolan's first choice to play Catwoman,' an insider tells the Daily Mirror. 'He wants her to portray her like a vamp in her twilight years.'

For the follow-up to The Dark Knight Johnny Depp is rumoured to be joining the cast as The Riddler and Philip Seymour Hoffman has been linked to the part of The Penguin.

Please God NO!!!!!!!!! Catwoman? Are you serious? That's the worst possible idea for the next film. Who are these people? Why, I ask, would you want this?

You know elvis i hear ya bro but if you read batman year one or catwoman year one you'll see that she is actually a pretty wicked character, her story is deep... prostitue beatin by her pimp then trained in martial arts and using the bullwhip. now for meagan fox, she's hot great look but not proven to stand in a role like that, nolan is gonna want someone that can go toe to toe with bale. Angelina i think would be the best choice she can bring sexyness plus she is pretty gangster at doing physical roles to life. if they do use catwoman then they have to go with A.J the best and only choice. i got love for M.Fox but not in this role.
