When Christopher Nolan was looking for his next Catwoman a lot of names came up. One of those names was A-Team starelett Jessica Biel. Biel, who dressed as Catwoman for a Halloween party back in 2007, said she jumped at the chance to audition for the role and work with famed director Christopher Nolan. But was left heart broken when the role was offered and eventually accepted by Anne Hathaway.

Said Biel:

"(That was) another one that got away. I was gutted. I mean, to work with Christopher Nolan in that kind of a role..."


This marks first out of two times that Hathaway has gotten a part that Biel was up for as well. She auditioned for and miss out on the Hugh Jackman flick Les Miserables. Hathaway signed on to star in the film last month. What do you guys think, are you happy with Hathaway or would you rather have Jessica Beil in the Catsuit?

The Dark Knight Rises stars Christian Bale, Garly Oldman, Michael Caine, Tom Hardy, Anne Hathaway, Morgan Freeman, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Marion Cotillard and will be released on July 20, 2012
