Think the one on the right is the cover of a comic book.
Brawling Cactus from a distant planet.
Crap I kinda like that look.

Not sure if this is true, but I thought I recalled Hughes saying some where that he used Audrey Hepburn as a reference for some of his Catwoman covers?

Hathaway can pull it off. She has the body and the acting skill. I trust in Nolan to make it work. He turned Brokeback Mountain in the best Joker ever.

Surely you're not claiming Nolan imbued Ledger with his acting skill.

No, but Nolan has a history of making unconventional choices that pan out big in the end. Ledger is only the most obvious example.

I don't follow what you mean by that. Ledger had more than proved his acting chops and tremendous range before Nolan cast him. I can't think of any unconventional casting choices Nolan has made. He simply hires good actors, all of whom already have a decent track record.|

Burton casting Michael Keaton as Batman was something of an unconventional choice.
When Disney chose Fred MacMurray for their comedies, that was a *really* unconventional choice. Talk about casting against type! Today the equivalent would be casting Anthony Hopkins in those roles. Can you see Hannibal Lecter as the professor who invents flubber?

In truth, I think I could see Anthony Hopkins doing something along those lines. Would he though is entirely a different question altogether.|

But other than that, I agree. I mean you've got guys like Christian Bale, Michael Cane, and Gary Oldman as your core cast. It's practically impossible to have a poorly acted film after that.

I think what got to people, was they didn't think Ledger could pull off such a different role (which was different than anything I can recall him doing), and well, let's face it, he was never going to be people's first choice for the role.

Up until The Dark Knight all I'd seen him in was Ten Things I Hate about You, A Knight's Tale, The Patriot, and Brokeback Mountain. I thought he was adequate. After, I saw him in Brothers Grimm and Lords of Dogtown. His role as the Joker was undoubtedly the best out of what I'd seen. He was great in The Dark Knight, but that doesn't mean it reshaped my opinions of his previous performances.

Those are all very different roles, though. Throw in Two Hands, Roar and Monster's Ball and you can see what he can do. Pretty impressive for a guy in his early 20s. (Ledger was 28 when he died.) Plus his ability with accents was amazing. Ned Kelly, wow.

Just because an actor takes on different roles doesn't mean they've got range, though. It just means they've had different roles. I mean Matt LeBlanc played a legally retarded man-***** on Friends and a space captain in Lost in Space. Denise Richard played a scientist in The World is Not Enough and a tramp in Wild Things. Ledger undoubtedly had more range and talent than those two, but having several adequate performances and one great one isn't going to make me look back in hindsight and call him one of the best actors of his generation, which a lot of folks did after he passed.|

It sucked that we didn't get to see more of what he was really capable of on a consistent basis before he died, though.

What I mean is a lesser director may not have given Ledger the freedom to take the Joker to such a dark place. We could have wound up with Ledger hamming it up in the wrong way.

since it was the darkness of the role that is the major thing attributed to his o/d

All the movies I had seen and recognized Ledger in I thought he was a good actor.
I think the opinions of people after he died that persist to this day are ridiculous and most people hours before his death could have been found ranting about how **** of an actor he is according to them and that he was going to mess up Joker, ruining the Batman films...
As far as Ledger being or not being a "great" actor... I don't think there are really all that many actors that had roles that you'd consider made them great before their late twenties so meh...
also... I'd pet that kitty...meow.
So wait. You all actually want Catwoman to look like Ursa from Superman 2?
I mean I agree it's a very hot look but not really Catwoman IMHO.
Don't count your weasels before they pop dink!
Looks like someone else was thinking along the same lines.
I think it could work.

Anne Hathaway is my gurlfriend.
I'm not sure if this is real or not... does anyone know if this is what she will look like?
