Ten actors have portrayed versions of DC's Catwoman in the antihero's various live-action adaptations, but there are many more who almost joined them.
In a variety of live-action adaptations, DC's Catwoman has been portrayed by ten actors, but many more almost played the antihero opposite Bruce Wayne, a.k.a. Batman. Selina Kyle, a.k.a. Catwoman, debuted in DC Comics back in 1940's Batman #1, originally depicted as a supervillain to Gotham City's Caped Crusader but later was shown to be an antihero and Batman's longest-running love-interest.
14 Susan Sarandon Plans for a Catwoman spinoff starring Michelle Pfeiffer in the 1990s would have seen her develop her role from Batman Returns. However, Pfeiffer mentioned that she almost didn't appear in Batman Returns, replacing Annette Bening, as she had been attached to star in George Miller's Lorenzo's Oil. Eventually, Pfeiffer was replaced in Lorenzo's Oil by Susan Sarandon, who also "had been interested in playing Catwoman," .
11 Kate Mara When Catwoman was revealed to be appearing in Christopher Nolan's The Dark Knight Rises, the final film in his Dark Knight trilogy starring Christian Bale as Bruce Wayne, many actors were revealed to have screen-tested for the role before Anne Hathaway was eventually cast. One of these names was Kate Mara, who until then had only seen small roles in a variety of projects, including American Horror Story and Iron Man 2.
7 Blake Lively In 2010, IndieWire reported that several names were in consideration for a position in The Dark Knight Rises, including Blake Lively. Lively starred alongside future-husband Ryan Reynolds in 2011's Green Lantern, giving her precious experience in the world of DC, but it would have been fantastic to see her fill the much larger role of Selina Kyle in The Dark Knight Rises.
4 Carla Gugino As a frequent collaborator with Zack Snyder, who paved the way for the DCEU to develop, Carla Gugino was under early consideration to appear as Catwoman in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice and subsequent DCEU projects. During a 2020 livestream , Snyder revealed that there had been early plans for Gugino to appear in flashbacks establishing a relationship between Ben Affleck's Bruce Wayne and Catwoman.
