As if we weren't all excited enough about the Robert Pattinson-starring movie The Batman, Deadline has just made a big announcement. Zoë Kravitz (Big Little Lies) is officially joining the cast and she's set to portray Selina Kyle aka Catwoman. In other words, this is shaping up to be the hottest superhero movie of all time.

The Matt Reeves-directed film is slated to land in theaters on June 25, 2021. Alongside Kravitz and Pattinson, Jeffrey Wright (Westworld) is on board to play Commissioner Gordon and Jonah Hill is reportedly in talks to play a yet-unnamed villain.

While there's no doubt that Kravitz fits the part, she's following in some pretty big footsteps. Michelle Pfeiffer, Anne Hathaway, and Halle Berry have all previously starred as The Cat, with the latter actress serving up the most unforgettable performance, which you can revisit in the trailer below.
