Zoe Kravitz's Catwoman is featured in new set photos and videos for The Batman. Warner Bros. and DC Films are finally in production on a new Batman movie, although it won't be directed by or star Ben Affleck as initially planned. Matt Reeves took over writing and directing duties on The Batman, with Robert Pattinson announced as the new Bruce Wayne last year. The changes signaled a new approach to the property and the possibility of it not taking place in the DC Extended Universe either.
With filming now underway in England, Reeves treated DC fans around the world to the first look at the new Batsuit last week. The costume test reveal was believed to have been released ahead of The Batman's production moving to more public locations where set photos would capture the suit in action. That is precisely what has happened now, as the full Batman suit has been revealed, along with Batman's Batcycle. However, it appears Batman wasn't the only DC character present for the scenes.
Additional set photos and videos have started to surface online that seem to confirm Catwoman is involved in the scene too. As seen in the images below, the other person on the motorcycle is an African-American female, and even though only a portion of her face can be seen through the lifted visor, it does look like Kravitz - or at the very least her stunt double. Videos from the set also indicate she is working with Batman as they ride next to one another on their motorcycles.
This is likely not the leather costume many expected to first see Catwoman in. After Kravitz began to sport Selina Kyle's short hair look in public, fans began hoping she would almost perfectly resemble the character. The good news is that these photos don't rule out the possibility of the expert thief having a different suit throughout the film. The motorcycle jacket could even be concealing a more comic-accurate costume, especially after Kravitz confirmed she had a costume fitting for the Catwoman suit. If Kravitz does have another suit in The Batman, then set photos could later provide a look at it.
While fans will have to wait for such a reveal, something that these images and videos do appear to confirm is an alliance between Bruce and Selina. Instead of being adversaries at first, they already appear to be working together. We know that Riddler (Paul Dano) and Penguin (Colin Farrell) will be the primary foes for Pattinson's Batman, so it may very well be Catwoman who is his ally. And given the comic history between the characters, it wouldn't be surprising to see Kravitz as a love interest for Pattinson in The Batman as well. For all we know, this motorcycle adventure could be a superhero date.
