While every female in Hollywood is jockeying for the lead in Wonder Woman, it is beginning to look like another spot could
be opening up in a different superhero title. Whispers have suggested for some time now that Katie Holmes may not return to Gotham, and according to the
near-prescient folks over at Batman-on-Film, those
whispers may be picking up steam: "In other Bat-Sequel news, I'm starting to hear a few rumblings that
Katie Holmes may not return to reprise her role as Rachel Dawes."Hand-in-hand with the no-Katie rumor comes the
rumor of a new female lead being created. There are certainly several good possibilities from the comic books -- anyone
have a bet they'd like to place on who the new character may be?Katie Holmes to Leave Gotham

23. "...I think katie holmes would be making a bad move not being in the sequel..."
Katie Holmes' bad move is continuing to stay with Mr. L. Ron Cruise...!!!

24. Let everyone promise NOT to spend money on Mission Impossible 3. It is time that the Mr Scientology Non-Baptismal idiot be boycotted....and don't worry....he's made plenty of money to last several lifetimes.

25. Has anyone told Katie Holmes that Tom Cruise always dumps his wives just before the pre-nups expire? I for one will never spend a penny to see another Tom Cruise film..the man has given new meaning to stupid, arrogrant and user....The classic example of a gay actor hiding behind a woman to save his career.

26. Let mommie and daddy rescue little their little girl and have her de programmed get her away from Tom Cruise That man is impossible to be around that is why he has been married twice no woman could stand to be around him and his religion..spookie....get her before its to late before she is married and it will be a kidnapping offense..if she isnt already...given up a career for him...is soo wrong

27. Yes, I definitely agree with Michel - she is a very foolish young lady.....what a big disappointment to her mother and father. Never had a child with either of his two wife, one who also was a strong Catholic,,,,be strong in your faith Katie!!!! He is just a gay man who wants and needs everyone's full attention!

28. What's the big deal? Kim Basinger wasn't brought back for the first sequel. Michelle Pfeiffer wasn't brought back for the second sequel. Nicole Kidman wasn't there for the third sequel. And Alicia Silverston wasn't brought back after that.
It just seems that as with the 'Bond' girls, there's a new one everytime.
I think all this sounds like another way to jump on Kate Holmes for being with Tom Cruise. Frankly, neither one impresses me much at all.

29. Well, I heard from a friend of a friend who is a friend of one of Tom's stylists & they said that Tom is very gay, and Tom's people are trying to do a major PR move, a few other "Hollywood" chicks wouldn't take the bait - then along came Katie, I too have always thought it was way too odd that none of Tom's other women ever got preggers

30. Katie has made a mistake by being totally consumed by a crush. Tom Speaks out on the media of his childhood and how he protects his mother and sisters. But then he pounds Katie with his religion and beliefs to the point that giving birth which is to be a beautiful experience has become stress. She has the right as the the mother of this child to give birth in a manner that is best for her, not some nightmare situation. Plus she is not married to Tom yet, so she can legally take things into her own hands and he would have to deal with it. As long as she does not marry him she is free to make her own choices. DON'T MARRY HIM KATIE, HE IS WEAK AND FEELS THE NEED TO CONTROL WOMEN. DON'T BECOME MUSH...

31. I wonder if MS. Holmes is a dumb as she appears?
I don't think she had much of a career any way.
& as for her religion-well she must not been as devout as everone thought!As for Tom Cruise I believe EVERY WORD OUT OF HIS MOUTH is scripted BY SCIENTOLOGY!!!!!!!HER FAMILY IS SOOOO excited by this baby!Her mother is by her side !!!She will be eased out soon & KATE will be surrounded by "THE CULT"!!!!!

32. yea, Tom and Katie's relationship is weird - no question - but the media and press have blown it way out of proportion to make it look a lot worse than it is - thats beside the point - Katie Holmes is not going to be in the next Batman because she was the weakest part in the film - not because "Tom said so" - not long after the first film came out, the producers said they were going to get a "much stronger actress" for the next film - the franchise will be much better for it

33. New female character...hmmm...Lana Lang or Lois Lane? The will help the cross over between Superman and Batman. Or how about Robin's real mom, thus building sympathy and pity for Dick Grayson later.

34. I for one cannot see giveing up everything I had worked for just for the sake of being MRS T Cruise I have to agree that it surely looks as if Tom wants to be the only one in the spotlight, and in order to do that he has to destroy Katy's carreer by makeing her choose. I look for a very sad ending to something that could have been beautiful. there are some of out here in the real world that know exactly whats going to play out. Tom is allready showing control mania over her, and thats not good

35. I think that Katie is just trying to be the perfect wife for Tom only because she has had some bad realtioships in the past. But she is losing herself in the process. I think that by taking some time off from a movie she can re think where her life is going so she can choose If she truly wants to by put through what Tom is offering her. And with the baby on the way it'll be 10 times harder to keep up with her carrer. I think she is just confused at this point with Tom's rules too.

36. Maybe one day there will be a romantic role for Katie Holmes opposite an alien. Wait a minute....she's been there and doing that.

37. Katie,
Wake up girl! Dump that fake straight guy Tom.
We all know you are probably having his baby, but certainly not by intercourse. He never got Nicole or Mimi pregnant because he never slept with them. That is your fate. Is it worth all the lies to be with this fake? Really now.....

38. katie...where to begin. I don't think she needs anyone telling her what to do. She's proved to the world what choice she's made and she's the only one that has to live with it. Let's just hope it's the right one. I don't blame her if she wants to stay away from the spot lot for a while. A baby is a miracle of life that grows up so quickly - if I was as financially able as she is, I'd enjoy it too. But, I hope she does it for her and not because she's being made too. God gave us a brain, let's use it wisely.

39. Katie Holmes is a idiot! The less films she's in the better. Anybody girl stupid encough to get knocked up by a ignorant, arrogant cult member without even making him get married is a full time LOSER. Any movic with Katie Holmes or her untalented, mentally ill boyfriend ain't worth seeing.
Posted at 7:49PM on Apr 14th 2006 by Kay
40. This is the oddest relationship I have ever seen. Nicole should bow down to the powers that be everyday and thank her stars, not Tom that she got out alive. A silent birth? Let's pull Tom's bottom lip over his head and see how quiet he is. L. Ron Hubbard? Can't we all just get along?

21. It may be dumb on my part, but what role did Katie Holmes play in the movie?
If a sequel would to be made, they the writer's/producers should come up with a villian, Batman has never faced before.
