Among all the criticism about Anne Hathaway’s portrayal as Catwoman… wait, we haven’t even seen any footage of Anne as Catwoman yet have we? Well let me rephrase that! Among all the criticism in regards to Anne Hathaway dawning the new Catwoman suit… but wait, did we really get a good look at the suit in the first place? I mean she was atop the Batpod so I know I didn’t get a very good look at the suit and what it could do and what Anne would look like in the suit BUT the criticism seems to be there nonetheless.
Just last week Hathaway spoke out about all of the internet chatter surrounding the suit and said “if you didn’t like the photo, you only see about a 10th of what that suit can do. And if you did like the photo, you have excellent taste.” Excellent taste aside, another Catwoman shared her thoughts on Hathaway stepping up to the plate and taking on the role of the Cat in Christopher Nolan’s upcoming epic The Dark Knight Rises.
“I adore Anne Hathaway,” said Julie Newmar, who is best know for playing Catwoman in the 1960s “Batman” Television series, in a recent interview with PopcornBiz. “First of all, she’s so gorgeous, and there’s something so sweet about her, and I know that she has all these other [performing] abilities. I think she’ll be splendid!”
Newmar then added: “Catwoman is appealing because she’s a rascal. If you’re the good kid in the family you kind of get ignored, but if you’re the naughty one, you’re the one that they’re always going after, always looking to see what you’ll do next or what’s happening here. They’re not going to keep their eyes off of you.”
“It just puts you in a good mood, she revealed when quizzed about her experiences donning the catsuit and whether she think Hathaway will feel the same way. “You put on that black and it slims you down, put on the heels and that also makes your posture go forward slightly so you’re kind of out there, looking and accepting and finding new people to play with.”
“My Catwoman suit is in the Smithsonian Museum now in Washington, D.C. I have a facsimile. Actually, I have two of them. And no, I won’t put it on.”
Let’s just see how Hathaway pulls off the role itself when The Dark Knight Rises hit theaters on July 20th, 2012.
