Catwoman: Nine Lives (film)

Catwoman: Nine Lives is the sequel to Catwoman and is set in the DC Cinematic Universe. 
== Plot ==
* Black Mask is the mastermind leader of Calendar Man's gang from the last movie. He is getting upset that Catwoman is so successful at foiling his minions' plans and also performing cat burglaries at the same time. He decides to take care of matters himself. The Broker warns Catwoman of Black Mask's plans.
* Catwoman gets ambushed by Black Mask thugs, but is nearly killed if it wasn't for the intervention of the Huntress. The two start an uneasy friendship, sharing ethical disagreements on burglary and moral codes.
* Shado is currently the de facto leader of the Yakuza while Akahara is sick. Katana is her number 2.
* Katana and Shado approach Catwoman offering her to join them and offers her money. Catwoman agrees and her first mission is to take down more of Black Mask's thugs. Huntress does not like this and battles Shado.
*The Catwoman-led Yakuza infiltration of Black Mask's underground headquarters goes bad, and Black Mask captures Catwoman. Shado is killed, and Katana escapes. GCPD and Huntress then investigate and arrest many members of the Akahara. Huntress finds out through Katana that Catwoman is being held by Black Mask. The two team up and free Catwoman and Holly. Huntress kills Johnny LaMonica, a prominent Black Mask thug, after he is about to shoot Catwoman. Firefly, Black Mask's bodyguard, is also killed.
*Catwoman then defeats Black Mask alone. Black Mask is terribly injured. Holly then comes in and beats him to a pulp. Catwoman kicks him into an incinerator where he is presumed to have been killed. The GCPD then find out that Catwoman was working for Yakuza and she becomes a wanted fugitive.
*In the mid-credit scene, Huntress and Katana meet in an alley suggesting they form a team to keep Gotham's streets safe. A motorcycle then pulls up. This is to set up a Birds of Prey spin-off movie featuring Huntress, Katana, Black Canary, Batgirl, and Lady Blackhawk.
