Michelle Pfeiffer, the actress known for portraying Janet Van Dyne in the Marvel Cinematic Universe might switch sides and join the DCU. Known for portraying the character of Catwoman in the 1992 movie Batman Returns, Pfeiffer just might reprise the veteran role in the upcoming DCU movie The Flash.
With the return of Michael Keaton as Batman in the movie, Pfeiffer stated that she is open to the idea of portraying Catwoman if it fits the context. The people indeed wish to see her return if Michael Keaton is also returning for the iconic role to bring back the 90s nostalgia to the world of gods and monsters.
Michelle Pfeiffer Might Return As Catwoman in The Flash
With Ben Affleck’s unconfirmed status in the DCU, Michael Keaton is set to return to the iconic role of the caped vigilante Batman. Alongside the veteran actor, Michelle Pfeiffer also wants to reprise her role as Catwoman in the upcoming DCU movie The Flash.
With Keaton all set to wear the iconic bat-suit once again, Pfeiffer stated that she wouldn’t mind wearing the costume of Catwoman for one last time. The Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania actress revealed that if the context fits, she wouldn’t mind reprising her iconic role from 1992.
“It would depend on the context but, yeah, I’d consider it.”
With Michael Keaton returning, it does seem a possibility that Michelle Pfeiffer might just return for a reprisal of the iconic role of Catwoman. The actress has been regarded as one of the finest since she has been an integral part of the Hollywood industry for quite a long time.
When Michelle Pfeiffer Made The Avengers’ Cast Nervous
Being an integral part of the MCU by portraying the character of Janet Van Dyne, Michelle Pfeiffer once made everyone on set nervous just by her mere presence. Talking about Avengers: Endgame, Paul Rudd revealed the behind-the-scene events of the funeral scene of Tony Stark.
Talking about groups, the actor stated that people stared at them since Pfeiffer stayed with their group and made everyone nervous on set.
“It was the first time a lot of people were meeting each other, and it’s a pretty impressive collection. I know I was going around, like, ‘Oh wow, there’s the Guardians crew,’ and ‘Oh my God, there’s the Black Panther crew.’ And when our crew showed up, and we had Michelle Pfeiffer, it felt like, among all those Avengers, we had the coolest group.”
The actor further continued,
“And I remember walking around at the little mixer afterward, and having, like, [Mark] Ruffalo and [Chris] Hemsworth go, like, ‘Holy shit, it’s Michelle Pfeiffer.’ And there was a lot of that. Everyone’s just looking over at her and everyone’s a little bit nervous.”
With an unconfirmed status of Michelle Pfeiffer returning, her latest project Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania is screening in select theaters across the U.S. As for the DCU, The Flash is slated for a release date of 16th June 2023 in theaters across the U.S.
