Headey, who will return as Queen Cersei in Game of Thrones season seven this summer, does has previous comic book movie experience with her roles in 300 and Dredd, and while she’s probably a little older than most would expect for Selina Kyle, it would make sense seeing as the DCEU has already opted for an older Batman in Ben Affleck.
