KATIE HOLMES ON BATMAN

This is from latinoreview.com

Not much is known about Katie Holmes’ character in Batman Begins. Rachel Dawes is not in the comic book, and all she’ll say is that she was Bruce Wayne’s good friend growing up. But we got her to reveal some other details that hint at what her character will do in the film.

Katie: “It’s more of a talky role,” “I’m not into stunts. Not one of those girls. I like it real easy.”

Still, she’s obviously involved in some major special effects.

Katie: “I actually find it to be more challenging to be in a huge effects movie because a lot of the things aren’t there, so you have to trust the director. You react to nothing. And with this particular project, the cast is very intimidating. And Chris Nolan is amazing, but I was just so thrilled to be with these people that I was like, ‘I have to do this so right and perfect.’ So I think if I get to be in another one, maybe I’ll relax a bit.”

And she got to ride in that car.

Katie: “Like every day I was on set, I was emailing my friends, ‘I just rode in the Batmobile. Ha ha, what are you doing?’ It is so cool. I saw the mobile take off and get on the street, and I was like, ‘Okay, I get it. I get why guys love cars.
I am in love right now and all I want is that car.”

But the biggest reveal was her answer to the question of how many sequels she is signed for.

Katie: “It’s sort of more complicated than that question. They can have me if they want me for two more.”

That could mean that she dies, or just that they want to have a different love interest in each film.
