By the time that Batman returned, a rival party was set up on the other bank of the Yarra and an uneasy standoff had developed.

In the fall of 1992 FOX television released a new animated series capitalizing on publicity for the movie, Batman Returns. This new series followed the stylistic changes in the comic book hero.

[I]t was going to be Michelle Pfeiffer, reprising her role from "Batman Returns." Then Ashley Judd was a lock. Then it was going to be Halley Berry. But then Nicole Kidman was ready to sign up. And now, finally, it looks like Berry (again) is going to star in "Catwoman," a feature film based (very) loosely on the DC Comics femme fatale. French director Pitof will helm the project.
