Anne Hathaway talks to BBC Radio 1's film critic Ali Plumb in part 2 of this interview from our archives. They discuss the film that landed her an Oscar, Les Misérables, and her work with Director Christopher Nolan in The Dark Knight Rises and Interstellar. She reveals how she originally thought she was going to be playing Harley Quinn, rather than Catwoman, and how she felt singing the iconic I Dreamed A Dream in Les Mis. Plus, how she endured what Matt Damon described as the worst costume ever.

I loved Anne Hathaway’s Catwoman. She played a real criminal, not a cartoon character, and her presence on screen was fantastic. I loved her style, she made long hair work with the character. The first time I was ever watching Catwoman more than Batman in any pairing I had seen before.
Same thoughts. Michelle is iconic in her 80's campy way, but Anne just brought that levity and a grounded feel of realism that sets the appropriate tone for the trilogy.
Literally one of the few things I like in that movie
@@PlanetXerox Both are good in their own ways
Acting wise....Anne Hathaway >>>>
That Oops and bar scene alone.
And she had an old Hollywood vibe that really worked
Her cat woman was sooo classy, it was exquisite. She truly represents the power of beauty.
It's interesting to note the term "classy" considering the character is such a commentary on poverty and capitalism.
@@sarosenna5850 Perhaps elegant then
My only problem with her Catwoman was not enough screen time or an origin
The same can be said of Joker - it was not his story, and it isn't Catwoman's.
where's PussyGirl?
Felt like she was overqualified for it, loved her in it
I personally had a problem with how she was never referred to as Catwoman. Just "The Cat."
Kee Leichtle well, The Cat was what Catwoman was originally called in the early comics. The name Catwoman came later, so it was a reference to the earliest incarnation of the characters name as to why she wasn’t called Catwoman.
The woman she’s talking about in the powder room, that’s Kate winslet
Simply Epic Emma Thompson did it with her Grammy
💯
You're absolutely right! She told Graham Norton here: th-cam.com/video/C9s4faDyGWY/w-d-xo.html
@Boi Chuah Sang It's a polite way of saying bathroom. :)
Powder room? Kate and Emma placed it in their loo! 🤣
The "Oops" scene is totally my favorite in that movie. With a single word and tiniest shift of her shoulders, she does a completely believable 180. I fell completely in love with the character in that moment.
What about that scene where there's an explosion and she screams like she's the victim and escapes from the police??
@@_-NOSTOMANIAC-_ also great. She was the best part of this movie
Her catwoman was the best I've seen.
And the fact that Les miserables and dark Knight rises released in the same year shows the range of her artistry, she's one hell of an actress ❤️
Arguably I think she was the best Catwoman however I did like Michelle Pfeiffer
The voice tone too, it was great.
Dude I'm soo curious what a Chris Nolan's Harley Quinn would be like
I always thought she'd be similar to Sheri Moon's character in House of 1000 Corpses
@@theangelproductions not a bad call, I could see something like that.
You could expect a sadistic, broke down JOKERESESS
inevitably better in every way.
The Watcher I would’ve loved to have seen what his adaptation of poison ivy would’ve looked like. She was my favorite of the Batman villains and I think Uma Thurman‘s version would’ve been fantastic if she had been given a proper script, so instead of a serious 3 dimensional ecoterrorist, we wound up with a cartoon character. And I don’t think it’s shaping up to be any different in the DCEU.
Dark Knight Rises and Les Misérables came out the same year and it was crystal clear to me what a legendary actress she is.
Indeed
Anne Hathaway, the most classy, intellegent, and beautiful actress there is.
No, Emily Blunt is the best, fight me!!!
Ooh in the exact specific criteria Natalie Portman does come to mind
Most classy? Lol. Have you seen her dancing? Her dance moves aren’t classy.
Kate beckinsale tops the classy list for me. Anne Hathaway the beauty and helena bonham carter the intelligence...
Honourary mention for Blunt!
to be fair though Anne is so stunning the rest can go to hell.
You heard of Natalie Portman?
She seems so down to earth and has an amazing sense of humor. What an amazing woman she is! Edit: and such a professional :)
EFF YOU ELVES!
"No... why would I want to rob the internet from a harmless debate. There's so many hamful debates out there, stick with the harmless ones"
now I love this woman.
Anyone who complains about her Catwoman is dead wrong. She was amazing. She’s the only reason worth watching The Dark Knight Rises
She's THE definition of Classy Woman. I love her.
"- three days of running in water in Matt Damon's least favorite costume."
Subtle, but funny :-)
I though Matt and damon where separate so I thought of TVD
Has internet stopped hating Anne. I always loved her but remember how a few years ago 'every body hates Anne Hathaway was a thing?'
Stupid, wasn't it?
Saqlain Alvi, wait, why’d they hate her?
@@americasofia6971 apparently she's fake and too rehearsed. 🤷
@@AvengingAngel777 oh yeah
@@americasofia6971 : Yeah, apparently when she was making her acceptance speech for her Oscar she looked "fake and rehearsed". Like, is there an "appropriate" way you are supposed to look when you've just won a major award, are a addressing a crowd of your peers (some of whom you idolize) and your every move is being viewed by a few million on TV?
She needs to be on Hot Ones. She needs some spicy wings with Sean.
I saw Les Miserables in the theatre and I saw her performance, I said to my wife that Anne's gonna win an Oscar with that role. And she did. She's simply stunning.
Is Ali Plumb even capable of having a bad interview?
If he is, I haven't seen it
well then you should really listen to his podcast open.spotify.com/episode/6a2nIfiUL492QO0zvJE355?si=h64kemo_RLqH0HhZjHKjvg in the first part he opens up about screwing things up :)
@@jonnnnniej search his first ever henry cavill interview on TH-cam and then check the comments underneath. You'll be shocked 😲
He don’t miss
If Anne Hathaway was born in an era with noble ladies, she'd have influence all over the kingdom since the "Anne Hathaway effect" doesn't clash with those views. Being too perfect of a noble lady with grace and elegance while fluently speaking and still being likeable would have worked for her. Too bad most people wants a human with glaring flaws so that they don't feel insecure about themselves. In truth, Anne Hathaway never really did anything wrong. She just tried her best and that should had never been a reason to hate her. And some people wonder why Anne isn't active on social media.
that "Anne Hathaway effect" was just pile of BS, written as a pseudo scientific excuse so some people could feel justified for hating her for no reason. don't they get it that she's just doing her job? she's an actress, an excellent one, but every time she's being interviewed or taking part in a show - she's promoting a movie which is a part of her job. she's just being professional.
@@martag825 Yesss Louder. I blame humanity for temporarily ruining her career and intensifying the anxiety problem she already have. She deserved more. The important thing is she's doing films again. If it was some other person in her shoes, they would probably never look back at the film industry. I love how she aced her roles in the Hustle and Ocean's 8. I'll be watching Witches sometime later.. Tbh.. I dislike the CGI and that it looked like a kid friendly film... But since Anne Hathaway's there as a villain (first time) then I'll watch it!
The fact that she knew who Harley was before she got popular was nice to hear
I love the scene in The Dark Knight when she enters the restaraunt with The missing Senator & when asked "you brought a date?" she answers "I like having someone around to open doors for me". Then rather elegantly plops herself down in that little black dress. Love Michelle P. but Anne's Catwoman was EVERYTHING.
One of the few A-List celebs who can ACT, Dance and Sing. A triple treat 🙌
She'll stay for long in the industry. Mark my word. You hathahaters are pathetic
She's only 36 too😊
And she's worth 60 - 75 million
People hate her? That's such a foreign thought to grapple with
don't forget that backflip in stilettos.. no stunt double
Hathahaters is such cool name even if it's for haters 😂
I've loved Anne hatheway since princess diaries, she's beautiful, kind, real and extremely talented ❤️
Anne Hathaway has quickly become one of my favorite, if not favorite, actresses in recent months. Been watching a lot of her films. Very powerful performances.
Stop hati...! Oh wait. Carry on.
I remember the time around the dark Knight rises and Les miserables, the Internet decided to hate Anne Hathaway for no apparent reason. I still can't understand it.
I agree I never understood that just because she was a practical more realistic version of Selina Kyle instead of comic camp they decided to hate on her. Her Catwoman was underestimated and now people had a change of heart about her Catwoman which is good because Anne was amazing as Catwoman
Yeah, the internet does that from time to time. Fortunately, the internet has almost zero impact on society. They attacked Ben Affleck's Batman, Robert Pattinson. They tried to keep Donald Trump from winning and a million other things. None of it worked. Most of the time what'll happen will happen.
It might seem silly, but I genuinely think part of it was her haircut and some of her bad dress choices
@@basma.x.6656 Why would that seem silly? Are you suggesting that the internet ever has a sensible reason to hate on an innocent person? If you consider history of social media and cyber bullying, it makes a lot of sense that a haircut and some dress choices would result in a shunning.
Moondancer Targaryen Donald trump is a presidential candidate so you can’t be surprised when people attack him
I really loved her as Catwoman. Perfect blend of sexy and badass, hands down the best version of Catwoman ever.
8 years later and I still got a mad crush on her. She'll always be a princess diarist to me
"what's wrong honey you wanna hold my hand?" *Proceeds to twist and break the inmates arms* God i loved Anne's Catwoman. Too perfect
Her performance in Les Miserables was heart wrenching, so hard to watch.
Ali Plumb, I love you.
Anne Hathaway, I love you.
I don't want Anne Hathaway to make a movie with Eva Green, ever. I wouldn't know where to look and I'd go cross-eyed.
That's a risk I'm willing to take
That may be why we didnt see Catwoman and Talia al Ghul on screen at the same time in TDKR - Marion just blows my mind to bits with a smile.
Lmaaooo
SO true. Both are gorgeous. I would however prefer Eva to play Talia. Cotillard was weak as fuck.
They should've done beauty and the beast 10'years earlier. She should've played belle
One of her best roles, loved her as Catwoman
I still wanna see a Joseph Gordon Levitt Nightwing/Batman Beyond spin-off...
God no...
Helder Fagundes Well, what would you like? Honestly I’d take any Nightwing project.
Whatever it is it would still be better than Titans
Such a talented human being. She absolutely killed it as Catwoman, Brand, Gloria, etc. no matter the role, she always nails it.
Man this woman does not age. So beautiful ❤
She ages, you can see it ;D. But she ages well and beautifully and with grace
There is nothing wrong with ageing. If people can't see the beauty in ageing, that is not the fault of ageing.
@@SasaJott I don't see it
I see so many comments obsessed with talking about her aging. I know you were giving her a compliment, but she's not even that old! She's 36! I could understand talking about her aging if she was 46. There are people acting like she's old now and it's weird.
@@aymaanchowdhury81 Being a mom doesn't automatically make you old, kiddo! You seemed sweet at first, but calling a woman a bimbo? You don't respect women much, do you?
4:06
Shame she couldn't play Harley Quinn but that laugh gave me major vibes of her
I wonder how the internet got to hating such a nice and amazingly talented person!
Well, cuz she's talented I guess
I’m still baffled as to why anyone would hate her
Some people suck.
Anne Hathaway is still in my top 3 all these years.
I love her as Catwoman, can she return?
Man I would have loved to see Anne's Harley Quinn.
God I love Anne's movies.
One of the best talents ever
Great interview. This makes me want to watch "The Dark Knight Rises", "Les Misérables" and "Interstellar" again!
This may make me sound crazy but as far as I’m concerned Anne Hathaway is the best actress who has played Catwoman. Michelle Phiffer was good but every 90s kid I’ve known myself included think that it just comes across not as good camp but corny camp. The whole “she becomes strong, confident and embraces her sensuality because she gets brought back to life by cats and not on her own merit” is pretty lazy writing.
Anne on the other hand comes across as a genuine character. She doesn’t do the annoying cat puns, her suit is practical, realistic and sexy, and she was equally seductive and intimidating at the same time which is Catwoman to a T. Plus I actually love the ending on how in this universe Bruce and Selina end up together, disappear and live happy lives.
@@LilliFychtner we don't talk about that thing here xD
@@LilliFychtner she wasn't Selina.
Michelle Pfeiffer is Catwoman for all 90s kids. You seem to miss the point of her Catwoman. Yes its camp but its not bad. It's actually very psychological. You can argue that her Selina is mentally disturbed after getting pushed down a window. She snaps and imagines herself to be a cat with nine lives. When she probably made her outfit bulletproof. It's that layers of the character that works. That whole movie is actually a character studie about three dusturbed characters
In all fairness, Anne is the only one who played the modern Catwoman. Newmar, Kitt & Merryweather played the Golden Age version, and Berry & Pfeiffer each played a version created specifically for their respective film. Still, Hathaway was great and I loved seeing that morally grey thief, who succeeds because of her training and her smarts.
@@bwalker77 Well, Hathaway's version was
created specifically for Nolan's world too, just as Pfeiffer was created for Burton's world. Don¨t think it's fair to say one is better than the other
My favorite Anne Hathaway movie is one almost no one ever saw: Colossal.
It's a great movie and I agree that Anne was wonderful.
She stil looks so GOOOOODD
Anne as Catwoman was amazing. I loved all her scenes and wanted her to be in more of them
To me, the best CatWoman until the day. Period.
solnegrolunaroja agreed!
✨ ABSOLUTELY ✨
Lol
Waiting for Zoey Kravitz to knock it outta the park
Love your interviews. Engaging, fun, down to earth. It’s like when you ask a question it’s like to friends talking over coffee. Love it. They don’t have your talent as an interviewer in America.
I just love her, so beautiful, so funny, so talented. Loved all her movies and roles and she still looks like she's 20 lol. Amazing. Thank you Anne.
The Miserables director is the same one who made Cats, lol.
One was amazing and made history the other was a complete and utter car crash 😂
Yeah one of the worst directors ever if u ask me
@@mishael8579 some mediocre and bad choices of late but he also did direct The King's Speech which was extremely well directed in my book.
@@NicolasWaldvogel I will agree with you. The kings speech was a brilliant movie but at the same time it seems like he's lost his groove with films like the Danish girl and cats
@@mishael8579 yeah I don't know what happened to him after that especially how he got to Cats lol
Anne Hathaway and Tom Hardy absolutely made TDKR phenomenal. Anne's Catwoman was perfect, great funny character who can whoop ass.
Anne is still so so beautiful
Arguably I think she was the best Catwoman however I did like Michelle Pfeiffer
Agreed. Two very different "environments" though and each actress played it perfectly.
Michelle Pfeiffer, best Catwoman ever.
Imo, I think Michelle is the best Catwoman while Anne portrays Selina Kyle perfectly.
@Funk O'Matic Eva Green could have played Talia.
@@bangjastipbang5924 I think that's a really good way to describe it. Michelle was in the comic book, but Anne was in the graphic novel. Very different takes but perfection in each performance.
"Do those shoes make it hard to walk"
"I dunno"
**WHACK**
"Do they?"
Anne Hathaway is an international treasure.
She was a great Catwoman, she made the role her own. :)
I love how, Anne seems nervous and stiff in the beginning, and becomes more comfortable and animated as the interview goes on. Great job!
She's so beauty😍😍
She would absolutely kill it as Harley Quinn. She can basically do anything!
They should've done a spin off with Catwoman as the last film of the Nolan Batman trilogey.
Not last. We need that Robin movie as well.
This guy is the best interviewer around. The people always seemed comfortable and relax with him
This man is an absolutely amazing interviewer. He should have his own talk show on tv
Anne's my fav Catwoman and knowing she did that backflip just makes her version even more awesome!
Most of my favorite movies interviews are from BBC Radio 1. Real movie talk, less fluff. Thanks!
She's just intoxicatingly, unreasonably gorgeous, blinding almost it's just sooo unreal Jesus
I remember back when the dark knight was released and WB did a survey asking fans what two villains would like to see in the next Batman movie and who should they play them. My answers where the Riddler and Catwomen. I didn’t know who to pick for the riddler but I actually chose Anne Hathaway so year latter when they released the casting for the dark knight rises I was so excited to see Anne been cast as Catwomen. And she did not disappointed me.
Goodness _gracious!_ Anne Hathaway is so freaking gorgeous. I just can't...even...😍😭🤩
Anne: 🥰😘😔🥺👋🇮🇸
Director: "Ok so we're reloading, so we're gonna go again as soon as we're done, and it should only be another two hours!"
Anne: 😐
Of course
She is so soft spoken and beautiful 😍💓
0:48 he's bragging about the stiletto thing but theres clearly a cut so she didn't actually have to climb up on the window lol
By the way the actress she is talking about putting her Oscar in the powder room is Kate Winslet!
god I love her laugh. have loved her since i watched her in Princess Diaries
I wish Anne Hathaway was in more movies. Shes so talented at both comedic and dramatic roles. And she seems really likable in real life.
Great iview and questions :) I wish she actually answered the ending of Rises tho haha
Ali's interview skills esp. his attention to detail truly astonishes me.
I hope she's back!🖤🖤🖤
I love her so much ❤
She is the best actress ever!
Anne Hathaway 🙆
I love her since the princess diaries she's amazing and Catwoman my god insane 😍
this woman's smile is gorgeous
It is so relaxing to watch these interviews . Mua
I love that performance she did starting from 9:10
Anne Hathaway I my literal queen she is stunning
She is one of the most beautiful woman in the world.
You had me at “Oops”
Is it just me or did she display a really good sobbing seen near the end of the video. Talented actress
Ali Plumb is always so sweet and kind.
Anne is just breathtaking
When she said “noe” my heart dropped 🥺💔
god, I'm in love from the first seconds of the clip...
Very talented actor,so funny and cool, beautiful inside and out.
Who else came here for Les Misérables?
Just me?
Manéka de Silver yeah, the rest of us are here for Anne Hathaway, Catwoman, Interstellar and her cleavage :)
I came because of her Catwoman
@@IsaiahWong8 and I just came in my drawers
Hathway on Les Miserables was just totally amazing. I cried a lot on her scenes. She had so strong impact on such a short screen time. Best acting ever.
LOVE THIS WOMAN
Wow. Time to remind myself that I´m watching a legendary cinematic figure here, easy to forget sometimes just because she´s not on a paparazzi drama list. I really like her!
Damn, she's damn stunning.
Damn
she’s so lovely
She’s so beautiful
I didn't think it was possible for Ali to meet his match in charm... but holy shit dude. Ali. Get her number.
Jim Nixon she married lol
Isaiah Wong damn i would have went straight for her
Isaiah Wong my dreams have bean crushed
Annes song in Misérables got me my A+ grade in Music! Singing it was amazing but literally so difficult
