Halle Berry is leaving the door open to reprising her Catwoman role, which she portrayed in the 2004 film directed by Pitof.
The star of The Union hinted that there’s one way to get her to wear the catsuit again.
“Maybe, if I could direct it,” Berry told Jimmy Fallon on The Tonight Show after the host asked her if she would reprise the superhero role.
During her appearance on the NBC late-night show, Berry also recalled the film on its 20th anniversary from the release.
Berry said she “loved it” and recalled critics “panned” the film. However, one thing gives the star vindication 20 years later.
“What I’m happy about is… the children have found it now on the internet,” she added. “The kids love it. So it’s so vindicating because now they’re saying, ‘It’s cool,’ and ‘What the heck was everybody’s problem with it?’ So, I’m like, ‘I’m so brat now.’”
John Rogers, John Brancato, and Michael Ferris wrote the film based on the DC Comics character based on a story by Theresa Rebeck. Berry starred opposite Benjamin Bratt, Lambert Wilson, Frances Conroy, Alex Borstein, and Sharon Stone.
Catwoman was shot on a reported budget of $100 million and made $82.4M worldwide.
The film won several Razzies in 2005, taking trophies for Worst Picture, Worst Director, and Worst Screenplay. Berry also won a Razzie for Worst Actress, attending the ceremony and making light of the unserious award show.
