“I did not get into costume and did not read a script past the audition sides,” Hathaway said. “I got the part and, yeah, it just… I think that’s probably more the producers’ story to tell than mine should they ever decided to tell it.”
She continued, “The Spider-Man universe has gone on to be so enormous and so thrilling. It’s just reinventing itself and all of those things so I wouldn’t want to make more of it than is necessary.”
Hathaway Did Go On To Appear As A Different “Cat” in The Dark Knight Rises
While Hathaway didn’t get a chance to bring Black Cat to screen, she did end up portraying Catwoman in Christopher Nolan’s The Dark Knight Rises. However, Hathaway revealed that she thinks that had Spider-Man 4 actually happened, she wouldn’t have gotten the Catwoman role.
“That’s how I hold it. The way I hold it is if that movie had gotten made, I don’t know if I would have been considered because I don’t know if (Nolan) would’ve said, ‘No, no, she’s occupied in another universe,’” Hathaway said. “As an actor, you don’t know this on day one, but you learn to just go, ‘You know what? The right role finds the right person, and sometimes it’s you and sometimes it’s not, so when it doesn’t happen just trust deeper and keep going, Just keep going.”
