It is confirmed that black canary The series that should be made on HBO Max is still in development. DC recently made headlines after bat girl has been cancelled. According to the reason cited by Warner Bros. discovery, bat girl was canceled by the studio due to poor reactions during early screenings. The studio wants to put new plans in place and according to him, they will not release any film that cannot promise them good reactions as well as good box office numbers.
Since these new statements didn’t seem convincing enough to fans, they were quick to find a racial angle to it. But now, with the recent updates coming in, it feels like the fans may have been a little too hard on the studio and their statements, as the case may be, seem different from what was concluded.

Black Canary is safe from the studio
It was sometimes reported back that a black canary The movie is in the works for HBO Max which will star Jurnee Smollett in the lead role. Jurnee Smollett earlier portrayed Black Canary’s role in Birds of prey. This standalone film is set to continue the Black Canary story after this movie. Now, while the movie itself failed to make its mark, the upcoming project was even lacking in updates and announcements lately, which made fans more fearful of its cancellation. But now, to everyone’s relief, it’s being reported again that the movie is headed in a safe direction and is currently under no threat.

Like the news from the black canary was confirmed, another news was also released recently, which immediately got fans excited. Idris Elba has announced his return as it is reported that a Bloodsport project starring him is also confirmed. This not only got DC fans excited, but also destroyed arguments that the new CEO is affected by skin color and racism.
It’s a very notable detail that Black Canary is a white character in the comics but is portrayed by a black actress in the DC Cinematic Universe. And now, with the confirmation of Idris Elba’s project, it can’t be said that the Batgirl has been canceled due to any racial overtones involved while the others are saved. We can conclude that the fans were too hard and too quick to link the movement of David Zaslav to the erasure of the minority.
