Catwoman: Hunted is a 2022 animated feature that puts Selina Kyle's cat burglar at the center of an action thriller rather than a side character in someone else's story. Directed by Shinsuke Terasawa, the film blends anime-influenced visuals with a Western superhero setting, running a tight seventy-eight minutes.
What is Catwoman: Hunted about?
The plot follows Catwoman as she sets out to steal a priceless jewel, a job that quickly turns into much more than a simple heist. Her theft draws the attention of a powerful consortium of villains who want the same prize, while Interpol closes in from another direction entirely. Caught between criminal rivals and international law enforcement, Catwoman finds an unlikely counterpart in Batwoman, whose methods and motives sit at odds with her own. The two circle each other warily as the jewel becomes less important than the question of who can be trusted, turning a straightforward crime story into a chase across multiple factions with competing agendas.
About the cast
Elizabeth Gillies voices Catwoman, giving the character a sly, self-assured edge, while Stephanie Beatriz takes on Batwoman opposite her. The supporting cast includes Jonathan Banks, Steve Blum, Lauren Cohan, Keith David, Zehra Fazal, and Jonathan Frakes, a lineup with deep experience across animation and genre television.
Context & significance
The film sits within a wave of animated DC releases built around a single character rather than the wider Justice League roster, letting Catwoman carry a full feature on her own terms. Its production draws on Japanese animation studios, which shapes the look of the action sequences and gives the film a different rhythm from typical Western superhero animation. At seventy-eight minutes, it moves briskly rather than lingering, and it functions as a self-contained story that does not require prior familiarity with the wider DC animated slate.
