Leslie Grace, who starred as Barbara Gordon in the Batgirl movie that Warner Bros. Discovery chose not to release despite production being complete, has revealed what her Batgirl costume would have looked like in the film. On New Year's Day, Grace posted a video to Instagram looking back on her 2022. Since she spent the first few months of the year filming Batgirl, it makes sense that the video includes some behind-the-scenes footage from that set.
"thank u for teachin' me, 2022," Grace writes on Instagram."you were singular in many ways that will stay with me. my gratitude and love for life is much deeper thanks to the experiences you brought me. i take your lessons with me as we part. here's to many more stories to tell, memories to make, and love to give in 2023."This isn't the first time that Grace has shared footage from the Batgirl set.
A Warner Bros. Discovery spokesperson previously released a statement on Batgirl's shelving. The statement says,"The decision to not release Batgirl reflects our leadership's strategic shift as it relates to the DC universe and HBO Max, Leslie Grace is an incredibly talented actor and this decision is not a reflection of her performance.
0commentsBatgirl was the first major cut made by David Zaslav, who became CEO of Warner Bros. Discovery following its creation through the merger of Warner Bros. and Discovery. He's defended the cuts previously by stating,"We did not get rid of any show that was helping us. This is more than just a dollar tally of what we've saved on an expense line. It is more than just a number. We are fundamentally rethinking and reimagining how this organization is structured.
CW Series...not movie 😂
...
I'm glad they canceled it the movie would have just been another DC let down honestly just hopefully James Gunn knows what he is doing going forward
Looks dope af Batgirl
I think we dodged a bullet
Getting hyped!!!!!!and still manifesting
When you compare to the comic (to the left) the mask should've been lower to fit her cheek bones. It comes across as cheap in the right photo. Maybe on film it looks better in action but based on the photo looks kinda weak.
Can she get in the shit for this?
Like it,too bad DC SCREWED HER OVER!! IT WILL COME OUT I BET!!
Does not look great. Haha
Ngl CW shows had better suits than this 🥲
