She absolutely nailed it as Selina, from the looks to the personality and way of thinking. I'm excited to see her become full Catwoman soon.

She brought such underlying anger to the character. Embodies how Selina feels constantly beaten down by the unfairness of life and resents the systems that made her that way. I love this take on Selina

[@oswiroa4973]

Yeah that was a huge element that made her probably the best Catwoman liveaction

[@forbiddencolor]

As much as I love Nolan's trilogy, it's clear he didn't have faith in a comic book Catwoman working in a realistic world. Matt Reeves proved otherwise. Selina's affinity for cats, the whip, the claws, it was all there and it didn't at all seem silly.

[@oswiroa4973]

also her drinking milk and wearing leather clothes throughout in the movie. That was cool too!

[@COOLJ688]

She did an amazing job as Selina and I can't wait to see her transform fully to the Catwoman that we love! Zoe should be really proud! She earned this role!!!

[@fabriciocastelozeta4335]

Yes

[@blacbwouy]

No she didn't portray the character well at all

[@rfm9535]

Great casting. Zoe may very well be my favorite live-action Catwoman.

[@A-G-A-G]

Bruce’s thinking is flawed till he meets Selina. He can only see criminals one way- inherently bad. He learns to understand what makes a criminal- sometime those people aren’t given much of a choice- and therefore this new understanding helps fuel Bruce’s arc from being pure vengeance (which can only work retrospectively on crime and criminals) to the more proactive symbol of hope

[@mbovb006]

It was a smart call to have Bruce bond with her regarding her anger towards her origins. It felt natural that Batman/Bruce would empathize with her anger. They're drawn to each other but its those moments where Bruce realizes how hard her life was that made the connection between them feel real and would motivate substantial change in their characters.

[@wholethedogsout880]

@@mbovb006 perfectly said! they're my favorite batcat of all time (especially in terms of writing)

[@anas-432]

More of a symbol of true justice.

[@spiderrocket8367]

Exactly which is why Selina’s role and Kravitz portrayal was so wonderful. Who other then Catwoman would be able to break him out of his incredibly naive black and white thinking. Selina shows Bruce that not everyone has the luxury of being able to walk the straight path. And this in turn allows Bruce to realize he can’t just fight symptoms of crime he has to get more at the roots as well

[@blastermaster5039]

I guess that is the difference between Nolan Bruce and Matt Bruce since Nolan had made Bruce live as a pauper for several years, while Matt made Bruce operate as Batman right from the get go.

[@benmunn7593]

To those who didn't know, she also voiced Catwoman, in The Lego Batman Movie, so I found it so cool how she did the role twice. And she nailed the role in live action. Love her portrayal

@@Noone.i Batman and Cateoman are gonna be on opposite side, in other words she's gonna become a villain.

*"So, basically she wanted the opportunity to kiss Robert Pattinson again... Fair enough."* -Critical-RAGE

[@michaelclausen1135]

She is my favorite Selina Kyle so far. But my favorite Catwoman still goes to Michelle Pfeiffer. If that's confusing, there's two schools of thought when it comes to Catwoman. Either she is primarily Selina Kyle the cat burglar and that's the gist of it. Or there's almost another personality, a heightened self (kind of like Batman) that's megalomaniacal. A true supervillain. When there's that side to her, that's the "true" Catwoman. For Kravitz, I think they should just stick to the skilled cat burglar. Besides, no one is really going to top Pfeiffer's shift in attitude and personality from a normal person to a super criminal.

[@wholethedogsout880]

pfeiffer's wasnt even close to being comic accurate so her portrayal is irrelevant

[@michaelclausen1135]

@@wholethedogsout880 If you're going back to the forties comics and the sixties TV show, there's an essence of that very arch Catwoman that she captures quite nicely. If you only have a modern conception of Catwoman, I can see where you'd miss it. But even then, the chemistry between Batman and Catwoman in Returns is about as accurate as you could get.

This character change makes me so happy. I'm Italian and my wife is Black.

I'm so happy that now we have this beautiful, morally grey, Afro-Italian character that is definitely on her way to being a superhero.....in her own way😂😂😂

[@lyrand6408]

Michelle's Catwoman was more theatrical and a 'spectacle' to watch, like it was coming straight out of a comic. But Zoe's Catwoman is more 'grounded in reality', was designed in order to be perceived as "plausible" in a real world. So I think in the end they really covered both ends of the spectrum with this character in their respective movie. I think that Michelle's Catwoman was basically perfect, as far as it's supposed to be perceived as a more flamboyant version of the character. But so is Zeo's Catwoman for its own reasons. I love them both, they're both the best Catwomen we've had on the big screen I think. I do have a slight preference for Michelle's, since I do prefer the Tim Burton Batman movies overall. But I'd say I really enjoyed The Batman as well. It had a bit of a slow first half, but the second half of the movie kicks in and becomes much better. I loved the last 20 mins or so of the movie really.

I think the role of The Catwoman is not for anyone. Actresses need to have been born for this role, take Michelle or Julie for instance.
