A long-running project originally developed by Joss Whedon (who was fired from the project following Ray Fisher’s allegations), Belgian duo Adil El Arbi and Bilal Falh (Bad Boys For Life) directed the DC Comics film Batgirl. The HBO Max platform was canceled by Warner Bros. studios due to disastrous test showings.
This decision, both sudden and unexpected, surprised many viewers, but also the film crew. And first of all, the main actress Leslie Grace, who responded to the news on her Instagram account:
Translation: “My lovely family! In response to the news of our Batgirl movie, I wanted to express my love for the hard work and dedication of our incredible cast. Tireless The film crew who worked on this film for seven months in Scotland. I am honored to be able to work with big names and meet people of a lifetime. To all Batgirl fans: Thank you for the love and trust that allowed me to put on the cape and become, as Barbara (Gordon, the film’s editor’s note hero) so aptly puts it, “my own heroine.” Batgirl for Life!”
It was in Morocco, and more precisely during the marriage of Adil El Arbi, that the two directors learned about the cancellation of the film. The Belgian tandem decided to react with an official press release, in particular, voicing “their sadness and shock” at the decision and regretting that the public will never be able to discover the result of their work.
Is Batgirl’s story really over? If the film never comes to fruition, our colleagues at The Wrap reported yesterday that Warner Studios is hoping to find new opportunities to work with the two Belgian directors and the New York actress, proof that a disastrous fate really doesn’t do Batgirl. …
Remember that the DC Extended Universe’s new strategy is now to produce high-potential movies for theaters, with Black Adam starring Dwayne Johnson coming out on October 19th.
