New images of Anne Hathaway strutting around in stilettos and clad in a slick catsuit have emerged on the Internet. Unlike the promotional pictures released this summer, these new photos from The Dark Knight Rises reveal Hathaway as a femme fatale head-to-toe. Let the judging begin: does she stack up to her predecessors?
Cats have nine lives, and by NewsFeed's count, Catwoman is on her sixth. This weekend, photos emerged of Anne Hathaway, the newest actress to play the villainess, donning the jet-black suit. The images, viewable on YouTube, show a skintight charmer with fewer frills but just as much purr.
As the first actress to portray the DC comics character in a live action adaptation, Julie Newmar played the feline role in the first two seasons of the 1960s Batman television show. Due to a movie commitment, Newmar was unavailable to play the part in the third season and was replaced by Eartha Kitt.
Lee Meriwether, who was crowned Miss America in 1955, was cast as Catwoman in the 1966 silver screen version of the hit show. Meriwether went on to star in the TV series, but in a different role as Dr. Ann MacGregor.
A name fit for the "purr-fect villianess," Eartha Kitt is one of the most memorable portrayals of Catwoman. A sex kitten on and off the screen, Kitt was cast in the final season of the campy television series.
The dichotomy of Catwoman's character is illuminated in Tim Burton's Batman Returns, which highlights both the underworld villainess and her alter ego, a timid yet manic Selina Kyle. Pfieffer's white-stiched rubber getup is the first modification to the traditional catsuit worn by other actresses.
Halle Berry starred in the feline-focused film about the Batman character. Berry's scantily-clad body was not alluring enough, losing Warner Bros. almost $20 million. Her catsuit saw more alterations, highlighting the curvaceous characteristics of Catwoman with a plunging neckline and bare midriff.
