During the selection,Keira Knightley, Anne Hathaway, Jessica Biel, Kate Mara and Charlotte Riley were the actresses who compete against the Catwoman's role.
Until Warner Bros. decided announced in a press release Wednesday (January 19) that Hathaway has been cast as Selina Kyle, a well-established character in DC Comics lore who is the alter-ego of Catwoman.
Director Christopher Nolan said in the press release.
"I am thrilled to have the opportunity to work with Anne Hathaway, who will be a fantastic addition to our ensemble as we complete our story,"
Featuring Anne Hathaway as Catwoman is surely another movies' asset but should it be more exciting? Now that the movie have Anne Hathaway? We'll know it when Dark Knight Rises is already on big screen.

"She definitely has the [acting] chops," the studio source said. "She can 'go there' with this role. Obviously, Chris [Nolan] sees something in her that's fantastic that we haven't seen or have seen ... plus Hathaway has longevity, a steady career arc and growth in appearing in big films."
Anne's sexiness and hotness should not overwhelm her Catwoman role or else the movie will surely flop. But on a second thought, I'm expecting Anne will deliver us a great Catwoman compare to Halle Berry and Michelle Pfeiffer. Peace out.
