The Batman officially commenced production a couple of weeks ago, and while there have been (unconfirmed) reports of both Robert Pattinson and Colin Farrell being spotted filming scenes as Bruce Wayne and The Penguin, there's been no sign of
Zoe Kravitz as Selina Kyle.
It sounds like the
Big Little Lies actress is preparing to step in front of the camera as Catwoman fairly soon, though, because she revealed during an interview with
Variety that she's been "training and rehearsing" will Pattinson for the past few weeks.
"I think [Robert] is perfect for the role and it’s going to be such an adventure," she added.
"I’m excited to have him as my partner in crime and to be there to support each other, because it’s intense. It’s going to be a long shoot and there’s a lot of pressure, and I know he has my back and I have his."
Kravitz didn't share any new details about her take on The Dark Knight's feline foe, but she did touch on how excited she was when she first accepted the role, and how that elation turned to slight trepidation once she realized how "dedicated and opinionated" the fans were.
"If you start focusing too much on what people are going to think you’re doing yourself a disservice, it’s almost like you’re putting your energy in the wrong place. Of course, I want to honor the fans and hope they like what I do with the role, but in order to do what I think I need to do with Catwoman I have to go internal and forget about the rest of the world."
The Batman is set to hit theaters on June 25, 2021, and will also star Jeffrey Wright as Commissioner Gordon, Paul Dano as The Riddler, Andy Serkis as Alfred, and more.
