Wanted: Tall, Physical, Twenty-something Woman for 'Man of Steel 2'

Is Love in the Air for Batman?

I love the smell of new Batman/Superman movie rumors in the morning. The latest comes from El Mayimbe at Latino Review that presumes that Batman is getting a love interest based on the casting breakdown being circulated to talent agencies for the Man of Steel sequel. 

They’re looking for someone in their late 20s and are open to all ethnicities...

But wait there is more. They’re not only looking for a good actress (like duh), but they’re being very specific and looking for an actress who is both tall and possesses physicality.

Interesting. Tall. Physicality. Ben Affleck is after all 6’4″ and it would look awkward if they pair him up with someone who is 5’2″. When I think of tall actresses, I think of amazons like Charlize Theron who is 5’10″ and current it girl of the moment Adrianne Palicki who is 5’11″.

 It's difficult to say for what role this is for but certainly sounds like it'll involve action so it could be a girlfriend who also happens to be a foil. Poison Ivy, Harley Quinn, Lady Shiva, or even the re-introduction of Talia or Catwoman seem unlikely in this reincarnation of Batman in the Man of Steel world. Could there be a Batgirl or Batwoman introduced? Probably not. What I would love to see is a cameo of the Amazon princess's alter ego, Diana Prince, to be the role which would make a nice transition going forward in the proposed Justice League movie. 

So many questions, so little answers. But this is why there are bloggers. As such here are some tall twenty-something actresses that should be answering that casting call. Let me know what you think.
