Ker-pow! Katie Holmes hits Broadway in Batman-style cape and knee-high leather boots

The Dark Knight may have been a hit with film critics this summer.


But it doesn't mean Katie Holmes should take fashion inspiration from the Batman movie.

The 29-year-old actress looked ready to stop a speeding bullet when she stepped out in New York wearing an unflattering winged black cape.

Dressed in the baggy cardigan, blue jeans and flat boots,Tom Cruise's wife looked more like a tired working mum than a Hollywood star.

Maybe the long hours rehearsing for her upcoming New York show All My Sons are taking their toll on the mother-of-one.

She is currently working 12-hour days in preparation for her Broadway debut.

The New York production of Arthur Miller's play is expected to open in October.

While Katie and daughter two-year-old Suri entertain themselves in New York, her husband has been working in Hollywood, with the couple frequently making cross country trips to see each other.
