LEGION Actress Aubrey Plaza Wants To Play Catwoman; Check Out Her "Audition" On THE LATE SHOW

Aubrey Plaza (Legion, Child's Play) has spoken about her love for the Catwoman character before, and the actress hilariously "auditioned" for the role in Matt Reeves' The Batman on The Late Show...

Although she hasn't exactly been campaigning for the role, Aubrey Plaza has made no secret of the fact that she'd love to play Catwoman in a movie, and the actress hilariously "auditioned" to play the Batman baddie on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert last night.

Colbert mentioned that Matt Reeves is currently casting supporting roles for The Batman, and seems to believe that Selina Kyle will feature in the movie in some capacity. This would gel with previous rumors, but we still don't have confirmation.

At any rate, Plaza donned some cat-ears and proceeded to lick the host's face in a mock effort to secure the part.

Plaza is clearly just having a bit of fun here, but do you think she'd make a good Catwoman? Check out the video below, along with some photos from Aubrey's recent shoot with Cosmopolitan.

Plaza is often asked which superhero she'd most like to play during interviews, which is what led to her fondness for Catwoman coming to light.



The 34-year-old actress broke-out playing the gloriously cynical April Ludgate on April Ludgate on NBC sitcom Parks and Recreation. Her first leading role was Darius Britt in the 2012 film Safety Not Guaranteed


Although she hasn't appeared in a comic book movie yet, Plaza portrayed Lenny in the first two seasons of FX's X-Men spinoff show, Legion, and will return as the fan-favorite character when the series' final season kicks off on June 24.





Plaza's next big-screen appearance will be in horror remake Child's Play, which is set to hit theaters on June 21.

@Solarkalel85 - Her sense of humour's really dry, it was either a joke or she loves it ironically

I want Plaza for Tigra so bad. Seeing her and Olsen as co-Avengers would be awesome.

@DnA - I'm not sure "friendship" covers it, but it's certainly a thing.

I like Aubrey Plaza a lot, but I feel like she'd be miscast as Catwoman. Zoe Kravitz could be great, but I feel like she plays too young on-screen for Pattinson. Riley Keough could be good, and she seems to be on a hot streak too, but maybe she'd be better for Vicki Vale.
My top choices are probably Vanessa Kirby or Jodie Comer, but Comer's TV schedule is gonna make it hard.

This would have worked as an audition for Goose, but it's too late.

@WakandanQueen - Goose?

Speaking of Goose... remember how Nic Hoult auditioned for Goose's son along with Miles Teller and Glen Powell, and ended up being the only actor of the three to not get cast in any capacity? Then he lost Batman a week before Dark Phoenix bombed? Yikes.
Anyways, he'd be a damn good Riddler, and hopefully his great work in The Favourite gets him more interesting parts.

Nah, there are better choices for Catwoman.

I could definitely see her as a few Marvel characters though.
