Batgirl is one of the DCEU films that was recently released by Warner Bros. cancel the show. This could be because WB felt the ‘status’ of the film was out of sync with the studio’s new strategy for the future of the DCEU. According to WB, the film’s budget was too big for a film that only aired on HBO Max. On the other hand, they can’t show Batgirl on the big screen because since the film they intended to be broadcast on streaming channels.
This cancellation has certainly taken everyone by surprise, from fans to the crew and cast involved in it. Because the film Batgirl, directed by Adil El Arbi and Bilall Fallah, has actually finished the shooting process. Where the actors involved, such as Leslie Grace, Jacob Scipio, Brendan Fraser, Michael Keaton, and J. K. Simmons, are just waiting for the film to be released on the HBO Max streaming channel.
WB Plans To Bring Batgirl Back In The Future DCEU
Recently, Variety reported that although WB canceled the film, Leslie Grace’s Batgirl character still has the possibility to return in the future DCEU. Warner Bros. executive. Pictures Group, Michael De Luca and Pam Adby, had expressed their hope to build a good relationship with the stars of Batgirl.
They hope that Grace can reprise the role of Batgirl for an upcoming DC film. Or if the plan doesn’t go well, at least he can appear again in another WB project. The final decision rests heavily on the choice of new WB CEO David Zaslav regarding the team that will handle various DC projects over the next ten years.
Now the question, when and where will the character appear? Grace could appear as a cameo in various DC films next. Given her character who has a close relationship with Michael Keaton’s version of Batman, it is not impossible that later Batgirl will be in the same package with the Dark Knight. But before that, WB must first convince Grace to rejoin after the cancellation of the film. Where it does not seem to be easy, both for WB and Grace herself.
