Halle Berry, who stars in the upcoming comic-book movie Catwoman, told SCI FI Wire that the film develops its own mythology for the well-known character. "We're a month into [production], and it's really been a lot of fun," Berry said in an interview while promoting her upcoming thriller film Gothika. "One of the things I like about this script, I'm going to say, is that we acknowledge that there are other Catwomen of the past."
Berry added, "So it's not like I'm trying to be the Catwoman. We acknowledge that we believe in our script there are nine Catwomen, and I'm one. I'd be, like, the fifth one. So that gives me leeway to be my own version of a Catwoman. I don't need to be like Michelle Pfeiffer [in Batman Returns] or Eartha Kitt [from the 1960s Batman TV series]. It's my own 2004 version of what a Catwoman would be today." What would that be? "You have to see the movie," Berry said. As for her much-publicized new catsuit, she said, "[It's] great. Much more comfortable than my X-suit [costume from the X-Men movies]." Catwoman is currently shooting in Vancouver, B.C., with an eye to a summer 2004 release. ________________________________ Changes to your subscription (unsubs, nomail, digest) can be made by going to http://sandboxmail.net/mailman/listinfo/sndbox_sandboxmail.net
