Ouch!
Maggie Gyllenhaal took a few pointed shots at Katie Holmes recently when asked about taking over as the lead female role in the next "Batman" movie.
Maggie Gyllenhaal took out her claws and swiped at Katie Holmes when asked about her upcoming 'Batman' role, saying she was cast so she wouldn't look like "some generic lady in a dress," referencing Holmes' 'Batman Begins' role.
"I'm not walking into Katie Holmes' performance," Gyllenhaal said, according to WENN. "I'm thinking of it as an opportunity to play somebody who's alive and smart. Chris (Nolan) asked me to do this because he wanted me, not because he wants some generic lady in a dress," Gyllenhaal added.
Gyllenhaal, who normally acts in smaller independent films, blatantly criticized Holmes' "Batman Begins" performance, which many critics found underwhelming and wooden. Gyllenhaal will take over the Rachel Dawes role in "The Dark Knight," with Christian Bale again playing the masked hero.
