Batman-News.com is reporting that Anne Hathaway will indeed wear a Catwoman mask in the movie.
It’s the moment we’ve all been waiting for! Warner Bros. has released the first official photo of Anne Hathaway as Catwoman in The Dark Knight Rises. Anne Hathaway can be seen wearing some high-tech glasses, but I’m told that she will be wearing a cowl/mask at some point in the movie.
Now before you completely dismiss this, keep in mind that
Batman-News.com was one of the first sites to break the news that Bane would be the feature villain in
The Dark Knight Rises {
Bane Casting News}. Still, keep those grains of salt handy until we get official confirmation from Warner Bros. Until then, enjoy this awesome fan-made poster.

Catwoman is a fictional character associated with DC Comics' Batman franchise. Historically a supervillain, the character was created by Bill Finger and Bob Kane, partially inspired by Kane's cousin, Ruth Steel. Kane, a frequent movie goer, also mentioned that Jean Harlow was a model for the design. Since the 1990s, Catwoman has been featured in an eponymous series that cast her as an antihero rather than a supervillain. The character has been one of Batman's most enduring love interests. Many modern writers have also interpreted her activities and costumed identity as a response to a history of abuse. Batman #62 (December/January 1950) revealed that Catwoman is an amnesiac flight attendant who had turned to crime after suffering a prior blow to the head during a plane crash she survived. Catwoman's origin—and, to an extent, her character—was revised in 1986 when writer Frank Miller and artist David Mazzucchelli published Batman: Year One, a revision of Batman's origin. She works as a prostitute in order to survive and wants to break away from her abusive pimp (and former boyfriend).
