Cristin Milioti just dropped a Bat-sized idea, and the internet is eating it up. The actress, who is set to play Sofia Falcone in the upcoming The Penguin series, revealed in an interview that she’d love to see her character team up with Zoë Kravitz’s Selina Kyle in The Batman 2. Naturally, fans have wasted no time imagining the chaos these two could unleash together.

During an interview with Deadline, Cristin Milioti was asked about a potential crossover with Selina Kyle in Matt Reeves’ The Batman universe. Cristin Milioti's response? She’s all in. “I would love that… I think we could really get into some real shit,” Cristin Milioti said. And just like that, the internet had a new obsession.


Cristin Milioti’s Post Sparks a Viral Frenzy

After Deadline shared Cristin Milioti’s comments, social media did what social media does best and went into full meltdown mode. Fans couldn’t get enough of the idea of Sofia Falcone and Catwoman teaming up in Gotham’s gritty underworld.

Cristin Milioti's casting as Sofia was already piquing interest, considering her character is a member of a powerful crime family with ties as deep as Gotham's worst players. Throw Selina Kyle into the equation, and you've got a couple that can quite possibly tear Gotham apart or take over as a duo. The possibilities are endless, and the fans did not hesitate to imagine just how wild things were about to become.

Twitter (or X, if you insist) quickly turned into a playground of unhinged reactions. One fan summed it up best by saying, “They could rob me and I’d say thank you.” And honestly? Fair.

Another person chimed in,

“That would be an intense duo.”

This is an understatement, considering both women are known for their cunning, street smarts, and complete lack of interest in playing by the rules. The idea of them working together or even facing off has people ready to throw their money at the screen.

One comment stood out in particular:

“Real recognizes real 😭😭.”

Because, let’s be honest, Sofia and Selina would probably take one look at each other and instantly know they’re cut from the same cloth. Both are survivors, both are fiercely independent, and both know how to handle themselves in Gotham’s chaotic underworld.

Then there was the person who declared,

“This would be levels of peak that’s never been peaked before.”

And while that sentence is borderline nonsense, it also makes complete sense. A crime boss’s daughter and Gotham’s most notorious cat burglar running the streets together? That’s cinematic gold waiting to happen.

Of course, not everyone was entirely sold. One fan admitted, “Idk how that would even work.”

This is a fair point Sofia Falcone and Selina Kyle come from very different worlds, and their goals don’t always align. But that’s exactly what makes the idea so exciting. Would they be allies? Rivals? Frenemies with occasional trust issues? The uncertainty is part of the fun.

As much as fans would love to see this duo in The Batman 2, there’s no official word on whether it could happen. Matt Reeves is keeping plot details locked up tighter than a Wayne Enterprises vault, so for now, this is all just wishful thinking.

But if nothing else, the internet has spoken people want more of Sofia Falcone, they want more of Selina Kyle, and they want to see them wreak havoc together. Whether that happens in The Batman 2 or somewhere else, the hype is real.

And if it does happen? Well, let’s just say Gotham might not be ready for what’s coming.
