ONTD original: ranking the cat women in history
With the premier of the newest installment of Batman, a ranking for one of the most iconic villains/antiheroes in the franchise was long due
#6
Halle berry (2004)
Panned by critics and fans as the worst interpretation of the character. While Halle exuded beauty, sex appeal and combat prowess, she couldn’t save the film.
#5
Anne Hathaway (2012)
Featured on “the dark knight rises”. Bland.
#4
Zoë Kravitz (2022)
Based on Frank Miller’s Batman one’s take on the character with a more subdued appearance. She gives a compelling performance.
#3
Eartha Kitt (1967)
The original material girl, became the second cat woman on the 60’s TV series. She had already a cat-like style and her singing was like a meow, captivating viewers for the third season.
#2
Julie Newmar (1966)
Performing as the femme fatale for 13 episodes of the first two seasons, her statuesque form and height made her a sex symbol. Her costume used is part of the Smithsonian institution exhibition.
#1
Michelle Pfeiffer (1992)
Directed by lauded, Tim Burton, on campy and cold “Batman returns”, Michelle started off at the lowest point in society, a very beaten down secretary that transformed into a fierce feline deity who made her roar be heard by showcasing her whip combat skills against the dark knight, becoming a fan favorite to this day.
Unranked
Lee Meriwether (1966)
Starring on the film that premiered at the end of the first season of the TV series, replacing Newmar. OP does not know about this iteration of the character, as such, leaves it unranked and up to comments in this post.
