Nothing has been finalized yet, but Aaron Eckhart, who plays Harvey Dent/Two Face in The Dark Knight, is pretty excited that Angelina Jolie is on the short list to play Catwoman in the next installment of the Batman movies. Eckhart says Angelina would be a fantastic in the role and he’s sure that the movie would be an even bigger blockbuster if she was cast.
Angelina Jolie would make a “fantastic” Catwoman, says Aaron Eckhart.
Aaron said: “I thought that was a fantastic idea. When I read that, I felt like all of our records that we made would be broken if she did Catwoman.”

Julie Newmar, probably the hottest and most iconic Catwoman in Batman history, also thinks Angelina would make the perfect feline villainess. Newmar believes Jolie would “own” the part.
When I first heard the idea of Jolie playing Catwoman, I thought it was inspired. She’s got the look, the eyes, for sure, she’s got the slinky walk and catlike moves, and she can certainly purr a line of dialogue. But I just can’t see her in the role anymore, all I see when I think of Angelina Jolie now is earth mother. I see her in long, white cotton nightgowns, sitting on the grass with skads of children all around her, smiling at them and looking up lovingly at Brad as he sits in a lawn chair with his hat, mustache, and for some reason, smoking a pipe. Yeah, I don’t know, either.
But my point is, after all this talk about love and babies, some of the sexy has worn off, and to play Catwoman, you need all of the sexy. Since Angelina started with an overabundance of the sexy, she doesn’t have as far to go to get to Catwoman level, but stopping the recent deluge of mommy and lovestruck partner conversation would definitely help get the process started.
Eckhart has a movie awaiting release co-starring Jennifer Aniston. Surprisingly, Traveling is not billed as a romantic comedy, but a romantic drama, so Aniston is bucking the grain a bit. It kind of seems like Eckhart just wants to see what all the fuss is about in this little triangle no one can stop talking about.
