It's been pretty much agreed upon that in Year One Selina Kyle comes off as looking black because of the too dark coloring used in the book(one of its few flaws). The fact that Selina Kyle was white in every appearance after seems to lend credence to the fact.
But I still think Halle could be pretty good.

Umm so that means Bruce Wayne is black, Commissoner Gordon is black, Alfred is black. The little hooker in training is black,..etc There is a huge difference between looking black and being black. Catwoman was potrayed as a black woman in Batman Year One, but what do I know because in shadow I look like a black man right?

Don't forget that in the 1st Batman HARVEY DENT(the future Two-Face) was played by Billy Dee Williams.

I don't know if Jack said it first, but I could totally see Nicole Kidman playing a wicked Catwoman. There is just something about her eyes that makes me think she was just born to play this role.
Attention Hollywood: Enough w/ the Halle Berry onslaught!

I thought this article addresses many of our frustrations very well. It's about the new X2 one-sheet.

audrey - now that you mention it, I could see Carrie Anne-Moss or Bridget Moynihan taking on the role. Particular the later - she is younger and isn't already know for an established action/sci-fi franchise.

and her head is just getting too big for her shoulders (I know you can compare her to Julia, so don't waste your time).
How do YOU know? Do you hang with her during her downtime? Have you personally talked with her? Many actors are/were c.u.n.t.s. during their day and it didn't take from their popularity...

3po and r2 are not principal characters. they should have been in the poster but the equivalent x2 poster would be if they had a giant head of threepio and luke and everyone else was just in their shadow.

I'd rather they cast Earth Kitt again, all 75 years of her, than see Halle Berry in this role. She really is a stuck-up windbag.
