Anne Hathaway physically hearkens back to the TV series casting: leather, long legs, sultry. Her Catwoman is in an obvious trajectory from the Newmar typing.
This Catwoman isn’t a thief for the thrill. She’s poor and hustling. When she hits a certain level of monetary comfort, she’s done. And, if we pay attention to the ending of The Dark Knight Rises, she lives contentedly in Italy with Bruce Wayne after the ultimate villain is defeated. Both of them walk away from the costume business.
She’s built like a Four, which could be casting coincidence, and Catwoman has that emotional engagement that could indicate a Four. Is she?
No. She’s a Nine. One clue: the Batcycle. Batman rides a physically complicated bike. You don’t just get on and balance. Catwoman jumps on and is instantly competent. This is probably for story concerns; no one wants to watch Bruce tutor Selina on the motorcycle details. However, we’ll take it as an Enneagram indicator. This Catwoman is a Body Type.
Another clue: Selina begins the movie primarily concerned with herself. She’s not heartless about the downtrodden, but her own needs motivate her. This changes. She helps Batman because it’s fair. Justice, that Nine balancing of diplomacy, moves her to participate in the Eight.
And then we have the finale. The piazza trattoria with Bruce. They’re almost companions, war survivors. Although romance is implied, it’s not the driving motivation. They’re just comfortable together. That lack of drama says Nine.
The long legs? The sultry? Nines don’t usually deploy those tools, but they can if they want, and when they do it’s a knockout.
