Michelle Pfeiffer Replaced Annette Bening in ‘Batman Returns’
Fans of ‘Batman Returns’ can’t think of an actress who was better suited for the role of Catwoman than Michelle Pfeiffer. Not only did the actress look amazing in leather, but she could crack that whip like no one else. But did you know that the role had originally gone to Annette Bening? The actress was stoked to be playing Catwoman … until she learned she was pregnant. Hiding a baby bump back in those days would have been impossible since Catwoman’s leather suit was too tight and CGI wasn’t as advanced as it is today. On top of that, the stunts would have been too dangerous for an expectant mother, so she had to be replaced.
