20 years after the flop of Catwoman, Halle Berry is ready to star in a sequel, but on one condition



Catwoman : Halle Berry’s Big Failure

In the list of failed superhero films, Catwoman (2004) is a good example. However, the heroine at the center of this film was not unknown to the general public. Already in Batman the challenge (1992) Michelle Pfeiffer proposed a mythical incarnation. But 12 years after Tim Burton’s film, Halle Berry was not as successful as the DC comic book character. Directed by Pitof, the film was a failure on all levels.

At the box office, Catwoman it was a flop because despite its budget of 100 million dollars, it only grossed 82 million dollars. A public failure, despite the presence of Benjamin Bratt, Sharon Stone and Lambert Wilson alongside Halle Berry. But such a critical failure. On Rotten Tomatoes, which brings together the audience ratings of the press, the feature film has only 8% positive reviews.

Finally, if there is one thing to remember Catwomanthis is Halle Berry’s reaction during the 25th Razzie Awards where the film won several awards, including Worst Actress. The actress didn’t take it too badly since she went to the event to collect her award and gave a particularly funny speech, thanking her agent in particular.

Next time I make a film, if there is a next time, please read the script and not just the zeros on the check before you propose a project to me.

The actress still loves the film

20 years after this movie Catwomanwhich will remain one of the biggest failures of Halle Berry’s career, the actress continues to appreciate it. Furthermore, during the Tonight’s show by Jimmy FallonThe star said that the younger generation is now rediscovering the film and loving it.

What makes me happy is that young people have found it on the Internet. They love it. It’s very encouraging, because now they say “How cool” and “Why did everyone hate it back then?”

The show’s host then took the opportunity to ask Halle Berry if she would see herself reprising the role of Catwoman. To which the actress did not close the door. But she would still have set a condition for returning, being able to do so direct the film herself. Halle Berry has already gone behind the camera to film Wound (2020), released on Netflix. However, such a project seems very unlikely and is not in Warner Bros.’ plans. Currently. On the other hand, Halle Berry is currently on the platform with the red logo action comedy The Union.
