Batgirl: Very bad news for a DC movie

The completed Batgirl movie will ultimately not be released on HBO Max or in theaters, due to particularly disastrous test screenings.

This is news that no one expected. The DC Comics movie Batgirl, which was carried by Leslie Grace, as well as Michael Keaton as Bruce Wayne or even JK Simmons (Commissioner Gordon), will not be coming to HBO Max after all… not even in theaters!

The announcement, which comes after Belgian tandem Adil El Arbi and Bilall Fallah (Bad Boys For Life) helmed the shoot, has just finished shooting and the film has already entered the post-production phase. The American media also mentions a loss of up to 90 million dollars…

The reason for this sudden cancellation is mentioned by the site transfer There will be feature film quality. Due to disastrous test showings, it was reportedly decided by Warner Bros. studio representatives. Don’t order extra scenes just because of the movie “does not work”.

Still, our American colleagues reveal that studio executives have enjoyed working with Leslie Grace and the two filmmakers and are already taking steps to integrate them into future projects.

As for the future DCEU (DC Extended Universe), the strategy now seems to focus on high-potential blockbusters destined for the cinema, while Batgirl was conceived as a shoestring platform.

The cancellation of Batgirl , Ezra Miller’s legal escape off the set of The Flash , or even the production of Aquaman 2 affecting the Amber Heard / Johnny Depp trial … was never in the future for the DC Comics Expanded Universe. So vague!

The only clarification at this point: the new DC Comics feature film titled Black Adam starring Dwayne Johnson hits our theaters on October 19th.
