"I could be Batman. Why not? I think as an actor, it would be fun to explore."

"That would be awesome. I don't know why somebody hasn't thought about that yet."

By playing the role of a superhero, Lopez would be following in the footsteps of Scarlett Johansson whose character was Black Widow in "Avengers" and Halle Berry characters, Storm in "X-Men."

However, During the Toronto International Film Festival, in September she admits that getting such diverse acting roles in difficult for women in Hollywood.

Talking about how unique it is for a movie like "Hustlers" to have a cast with all female leads, Lopez explains:

"First of all, it's hard to make a movie, period. It has to be a Marvel comic or some crazy franchise thing but the smaller movies about humanity and people and life and struggles, you don't get that as much unless you do that for nothing and there's no budget."

While she waits to find the perfect role that will finally allow her add superhero to her list of acting accomplishments, she is currently enjoying the Oscar buzz surrounding her latest movie, "Hustlers."
