Michelle Pfeiffer has said that Anne Hathaway will be "amazing" as Catwoman.
Batman Returns star Pfeiffer discussed her opinion of her Dark Knight Rises successor with Hollywood Life.
"I think [Anne] is going to be amazing," she said. "She has the darkness and the comedy - she's got it all. She's going to be great."
Pfeiffer appeared as Selina Kyle - aka Catwoman - in Tim Burton's 1992 film Batman Returns, alongside Michael Keaton and Danny DeVito.
Hathaway will reprise the role in Christopher Nolan's Christian Bale-starring The Dark Knight Rises.
The film marks the third and final instalment in Nolan's adaptation of the legendary DC Comics franchise.
George Clooney recently said that Batman and Robin - in which he played the starring role - was "really s**t".
