Zoë Kravitz says she “definitely interpreted” Catwoman as bisexual in The Batman
Zoë Kravitz and The Batman director Matt Reeves open up on the queerness of Selina Kyle aka Catwoman on the big screen. Kravitz is the latest star to carry the mantle as the infamous Catwoman and the actor has confirmed she “interpreted” the role as queer.
In an interview with Pedestrian TV, the 33-year-old actor said she saw “some kind of romantic relationship” between Catwoman and character Anika Noni Rose.
The Batman movie features a shared scene between Zoë’s character Selina Kyle and a female friend Anika in which Kyle addresses her as “baby”.
Theories suggest this interaction was an acknowledgement to Kyle’s character who is portrayed as bisexual in the comics. The Batman director, Matt Reeves, was much more enigmatic with his response to the portrayal of Selina Kyle. ‘[The film is] very true to the character of Selina Kyle.
