Aug 26 2009Megan Fox is Catwoman, Unless 'The Sun' Somehow Has Their Facts Wrong/Fabricated
British tabloid The Sun is reporting that Megan Fox has been cast as Catwoman in Christopher Nolan's follow-up to The Dark Knight, cleverly adding that they have "a strong feline she is the purrfect choice for the part." To sum things up for those of you who haven't been following every British tabloid casting announcement, the part of Catwoman will now be played by the ensemble of Angelina Jolie, Cher, Miley Cyrus, Julie Newmar, an actual cat, a CGI cat, a lab-created, actual cat-woman, a lady who just owns a lot of cats, Eddie Murphy, and Megan Fox.
(Thanks, Rosey.)

"The Sun" would never fabricate something like this. I know, because I've seen the 80-pound newborn cat-hybrid as well.

Well, I suppose a long sleeve skin tight "cat" suit would cover of that silly marilyn monroe tattoo on her arm.

I'll assume (and by that I mean pray) that it's bullshit until Warner Bros or Nolan has said something. If it's true, then I really would like to believe that Megan Fox is a capable actress in the right hands and maybe Nolan can bring that out of her. I also would like to believe that I'm going to have sex with Charlize Theron tonight but hey we can all dream.

I'd hope that the directors/producers realize that the reason the batman films have been popular thus far is because they have been using good actors. They have to be out of their mind if they think someone as hardcore as Christian Bale is going to want to work with that ding bat.

If the Sun says it's true it's not.

@6 If the producers do try to pull something that careless, expect to hear another leaked tape of Christian Bale snapping off on Megan Fox like he did on the set of Terminator.
"Megan, do the fucking scene right or I'll smash your fucking lights."

1) Use semi-colons Geekologie Writer. They help clarify what describes what when you have a giant list.
Example: Originally you had "part of Catwoman will now be played by the ensemble of Angelina Jolie, Cher, Miley Cyrus, Julie Newmar, an actual cat, a CGI cat, a lab-created, actual cat-woman, a lady who just owns a lot of cats, Eddie Murphy, and Megan Fox" The part that says "lab-created, actual cat-woman" actually reads 1) a lab-created and 2) actual-cat woman. A semi-colon throughout this list would help. Just some advice :)
2) The reason the Sun has gone through a list of actresses is quite simple.
Miley is too young. There was problems with her working on this film which required a love scene with Christian Bale.
Angelina dropped the film because of her sordid past with Bale (just guessing)
Cher is too old to play Bale's love interest. Knowing this, she bowed out. Same goes for Julie Newmar.
The cat and CGI cat could not get their VISAs in since they are of foreign birth.
The lab-created, actual cat-woman was a hassle to insure since she's been rumored to be addicted to cat nip and heroin.
The cat lady, while a Harvard Grad, only speaks gibberish at the moment and is leading a fulfilling career as a recurring character on the Simpsons.
And finally Eddie Murphy dropped out because he's writing the sequel to Meet Dave.
See? The Sun was right all along but each actor had to leave for their own reasons.

This will never happen. Everybody go back to their own carcasses and wait for the next talentless bimbo rumor.

If it's "The S*n" saying it that automatically makes it a lie. The S*n always lies.
YNWA.

I don't know how many times Nolan and WB has to say that they are not casting anyone yet BECAUSE THEY DONT HAVE A DAMN SCRIPT YET!!! Nolan has said he isn't even thinking about Batman until he finishes on his current movie. WB has said they are not thinking about the movie until they know whether Nolan is on board to do it or not! Seriously, enough with the bullsh*t rumors.

Load of cobblers.

I'm so glad that this is a patently ridiculous fabrication. We need actual actors in movies, people, not just blow-up dolls that can read a teleprompter.

Megan Fox already said this was false like three-four days ago.

@ 9 1) You are wrong actually - it's the english language's fault for not specifically saying what to do in that case, but as far as it goes, Mr Geekologie (that *is* actually you're name, right dude?) is perfectly entitled to write as he did and everyone fucking else here understood what he meant (which is the decider in any "English-language" agrument because of all the languages it's one of the most arbitrary, irration, cobbled together languages ever, and the intended result of language in the first place) so maybe you should just take a chill pill and stop bitching about other people's writing styles.
2) Nah, dude, it's just that the Sun make shit up. When I used to work for *unnamed Irish political satire magazine* (there's only two, and it wasn't the shit one) one of the other guys freelanced for the Sun. Trust me, an evil wizard cast a spell on the paper that makes it literally impossible for it to acturately and fairly portray any news item, until a thousand years have passed and/or Megan Fox stops being a complete bitch.

@16
I realize that sarcasm is lost on you, but as far as needing to take a chill pill, I wasn't the one who cursed and got upset. Silly rabbit.
18. Johnny Lava - August 27, 2009 11:07 AM
@17 your sarcasm sux cuz I thought you were serious also.
19. Bladedemon04 - August 27, 2009 11:25 AM
@ 18 It's just that thing that people do when they realise everyone doesn't agree with them and they go, jeez, can't take a joke/don't you get sarcasm . . . You know, like kids back in school? Not that I'm calling Edgy a kid. (Note: this is what sarcasm is, Edge. Get it?)
Curse? I didn't curse? Did I? Ah dude, I said "fuck" once and "shit" once. That's not cursing, that's speaking normally . . . Actually, that's probably really toned down for me. Do people not regularly use expletives in normal dialogue where you're from or something?
20. Edge6241 - August 27, 2009 12:13 PM
@ 19
No. People curse. It's just usually the first sign of someone getting angry. Civilized people (and I have no doubt that you are a part of civilized society and are among the civilized - not sarcasm) usually don't curse in writing unless they can't think of anything better to write in a response or unless they're angry/upset.
