Zoë Kravitz Is Training Hard for 'Catwoman'

Zoë Kravitz talked with Ellen about playing Catwoman in the upcoming "The Batman" movie, and how difficult training has been for the action film. The actress also talked about a possible third season of "Big Little Lies," being nervous about joining her dad Lenny Kravitz on stage, and her new TV show, "High Fidelity."
