AceShowbiz - Sienna Miller wants to join "The Batman" movie. The actress who stars in "Live By Night" with Ben Affleck has expressed her desire to play Selina Kyle or better known as Catwoman. "She's not in the script but I wanna write her in!" Miller said as quoted by Erik Davis of Fandago.

Catwoman was previously portrayed by Anne Hathaway in Christopher Nolan's "The Dark Knight" trilogy which was led by Christian Bale. "I loved that character and I had such a blast playing her," she said earlier this year. "I'm not sure how it would work because I think the Chris Nolan chapter of the Batman story has been wrapped up and I'm part of that, but I love the DC Universe and it would be fun to take a trip back."
Although she would love to reprise the character, she understood if it's being recast. "It sort of goes with the territory when you accept it and receive it from the last Catwoman. I was shown such generosity from Halle [Berry] and from Michelle [Pfeiffer], and so I would do that the next time as well," she explained.
The DC Extended Universe also has no plan to revisit Talia Al Ghul (previously played by Marion Cotillard) or her father Ra's in the new Batman movie. The project hasn't got an official date. Joe Manganiello is expected to play Deathstroke and J.K. Simmons to reprise his role as Commissioner Gordon.
