Batgirl Cancellation Sparks Fear Over More Upcoming DC Movies' Fate
DC fans are worried that Blue Beetle and Black Canary might also get canceled after Batgirl. After a long road to development, Batgirl was set to mark Barbara Gordon's first solo live-action outing with In The Heights actress Leslie Grace playing the title role and Bad Boys for Life duo Adil El Arbi and Bilall Fallah directing. The movie completed filming and was in post-production, but on Tuesday, a report sent shockwaves across Hollywood and the DC fanbase after it was announced that WB has cancelled Batgirlwith no plans to release it theatrically or on HBO Max. It was reported that the decision resulted from a change in leadership at WB, with the newly formed Warner Bros. Discovery restrategizing to prioritize cost-cutting and theatrical releases over streaming projects.
