Ben Affleck’s script for Batman had a Batgirl. I hope this happens and Leslie gets some form of justice.

The Batgirl movie can still be saved. I hope they will. They just have to rework it to fit the Snyderverse. What I REALLY want is Jeffrey Dean Morgan as Batman in The Flash. But it’s already over.

No, no no, it’s not just one actress playing Batgirl, it’s a whole team of dedicated cast and crew whose work has been shelved just because society doesn’t see not enough dollar signs

The need for Batgirl to be set aside
It was a major shock for the entire film crew who had devoted a lot of energy and time to the project of Bat girl. The whopping $90 million shoot had already been done before the new head of Warner Bros. Discovery’s David Zaslav is canceling the film with no hope of the film being saved.

Shortly after, the president gave a little note on the reasons for the cancellation of the film.
“We’re not going to release a movie until it’s ready. We’re not going to release a movie to make a quarter, and we’re not going to release a movie unless we believe in it.
said David Zaslav. Multiple sources claim that Zaslav is more interested in core DC comics such as Batman, Superman, and Wonder Woman. He also said that early test screenings of the film received a negative response from audiences as well as himself, and as a result, he decided to shelve the film.
