A canceled Batman Returns centered around Catwoman will be the boys of the 1990s.

New details of the scrapped Batman Returns starring Catwoman have been revealed by the screenwriter himself.

We will never see a Catwoman movie

Tim Burton’s Batman Returns was so successful that it almost became a fad. In fact, the movie never got old and is on the list of Christmas movies. Now, media outlet IndieWire has provided information about that scrapped project from screenwriter Daniel Waters, who has hinted that he wants to make fun of the superhero subgenre.

“Burton wanted to make an $18 million black and white movie, like the first Cat People, about Selina living in a small town. And I wanted to make a Batman movie where the style was about Batman. So I moved it to the Los Angeles version of Gotham, and it’s run by three douchebag superheroes. Before men, there were men. But he got tired of reading my script.

Surprisingly, Waters’ vision for Catwoman was never greenlit. However, the screenwriter tried to include sarcasm in Batman Returns, but Michael Keaton convinced him to abandon the idea, saying, “That’s too clever.” Cut” One of the drafts of the 1992 film featured Bruce Wayne criticizing the exploitation business for much of the story.

Although the idea of ​​water doesn’t sound bad, it seems to me that Ketone is correct at this point. I don’t think the Batman universe is the right place to make that kind of criticism, especially not in the movie. It works in the boys’ world because it’s an integral part of the story.
