Cher as Catwoman?

Oh, Christopher Nolan, say it ain't so! Admittedly, movie rumors (particularly casting rumors) are a dime a dozen on the Internet, where tales spread like wildfire -- or like a high school grapevine:

The 62-year-old singer and actress is reported to be in talks to play Catwoman opposite Christian Bale in the third Batman film from British director Christopher Nolan.

The Oscar-winner will join a cast that includes Johnny Depp as The Riddler as she plays the whip-carrying burglar. The character has also been played by Michelle Pfeiffer and Halle Berry.

An older Catwoman is actually something I could believe. But Cher? Not a name I would expect. If you're looking for actresses in their sixties ... Helen Mirren, Julie Christie, Catherine Deneuve.

In a more traditional 30s or 40s-ish sense ... Marion Cotillard, Saffron Burrows, Diane Lane. Maybe Rachel Weisz.

Somewhere, Tilda Swinton probably ought to get a mention, and that's that.
