Hathaway
plays a cat burglar who has ties to the villain in the epic superhero
film and although she is never referred to as Catwoman, she is seen
wearing the famous costume in various scenes. Nolan, a British
filmmaker, recently spoke about the 29-year-old's talent and precision
in portraying her character.
"Anne
is incredibly precise and articulate about the psychology of the
character. She's really built it from the ground up, it's just a delight
to watch her perform," Nolan told Access Hollywood. "The thing she does
in those heels is not to be taken lightly. She's an incredible
character and we're very excited to see her and hopefully we'll leave
people wanting more."
Nolan
then answered questions about the potential of a Catwoman movie, and
while he confirmed that the "Dark Knight Rises" is his final Batman
installment he believes that Hathaway "deserves" a spinoff.
