Matt Reeves wants to find a black woman for the role of Catwoman

Comments

Agreed.

Yassss! Also, Lupita and Tessa (maybe) are the only “black” actresses on the list. The rest are biracial or mixed race or whatever the term is these days. Give me Lupita or Gugu though please!! Logan and Shipp aren’t strong actresses and Tessa will be busy with Thor.

Tessa is mixed too, her dad is Black/Panamanian and her mom is White/Mexican.

I agree though, the best options out of these are Lupita and Gugu. Sad Gugu never got the breakout role she deserved :(

"Who is getting the role?"

Whoever is lightest lbr.

sad but true

[soul_amazinn]

They've already said they wanted a biracial actress lol

[saintclaire87]

Yep :/

[sandstorm]

Also we don't need Shipp ruining two iconic characters in one decade, thank.

I vote for Gugu if for no other reason than she deserves a better career.

Lupita would be a great choice but she already has an Oscar and BP

[arabian]

That was LITERALLY my reasoning. (I love them both so much, but Gugu needs the exposure more.)

[analievelyn]

just bc lupita has one commercial film and an oscar doesnt mean much to me. she doesnt get a lot of film options bc she is dark skinned.

gugu will be fine imo

[soul_amazinn]

Alexandra Shipp needs to go away. She can't fucking act and idk why people are trying to make her happen. My vote is for Gugu
