Kate Mulgrew may be familiar to some of you - she did have a small role in Star Trek: Voyager, after all.

Ok, time to hide from Ellie!

Star Trek's first leading female captain helped to open Batman: The Animated Series with her depiction of Red Claw, a terrorist leader who had beef with Selina Kyle/Catwoman. The Cat And The Claw Part 1 was the first episode of the show to be broadcast, even though it had been produced after many priors. 

Red Claw's plans saw her procuring a large amount of land that Kyle wanted for animal preserves - thus leading to their confrontation, and later with Batman as well. Mulgrew gets to chew the scenery as Claw matches Batman punch-for-punch. She returned for The Cat And The Claw Part 2, then later again for The Lion And The Unicorn.

As Claw's fate is uncertain by the end of that episode, there is every chance a future series could see Mulgrew return to the role - something she has already done for another well-known character she played in Star Trek: Prodigy.
