The Batman trailer made it clear that Selina Kyle won't necessarily have her classic comic book costume in this movie. Despite that, she certainly grabbed everyone's attention at this funeral in an outfit which makes her stand out from the crowd in a huge way!

There's more to talk about than just her fashion sense, though. In the comic books, it was long rumoured that Selina was the illegitimate daughter of Carmine Falcone, with Batman: Dark Victory heavily leaning into that idea. While it would later be confirmed that another criminal, Rex Calabrese, was her father, it seems like Selina may call Falcone "dad" in The Batman.

They were shown leaving this funeral service together, and it would certainly be an interesting approach to delve into that father/daughter relationship. That's particularly going to be the case if Batman eventually enlists her help in taking Falcone down.

Is it possible that the gangster has manipulated the talented young thief into working for him by giving her the impression they're related? There's certainly evidence that he's crossed paths with Catwoman...
