These appearances are tied to major projects by each actor also releasing in March. Up first will comeThe Batman, finally hitting the big screen on March 4 after a tumultuous production process and many significant delays. Featuring Zoe Kravitz as Selina Kyle/Catwoman alongside Robert Pattinson’s Bruce Wayne/Batman,The Batmanlooks to be just as much of a Catwoman film as a Batman one.
“This is an origin story for Selina," Kravitz toldEmpirelast year, teasing a prominent role for Catwoman in the movie. “So, it’s the beginning of her figuring out who she is, beyond just someone trying to survive. I think there’s a lot of space to grow and I think we are watching her become what I’m sure will be the femme fatale.”
Meanwhile, Oscar Isaac’sMoon Knightseries will start streaming at the end of the month, set to hit Disney+ on March 30. The six-episode limited series will further expand the Marvel Cinematic Universe, following Isaac as Marc Spector - a mercenary with dissociative identity disorder who gets drawn into a deadly mystery involving Egyptian gods.
