This particular audition will decide who will play Barbara Gordon in this forthcoming live-action film in the Batman creation. We had Isabela Merced, Zoey Deutch, Leslie Grace Martinez, and Haley Lu Richardson up for the characters; The studio had no remark on the examination process till JULY 19th. After a complicated decision: Leslie Grace and Haley Lu Richardson Emerge as Contenders. The movie will bow on HBO Max, considering one of the first major DC features to bow exclusively on the streamer.

 

“Batgirl” will be directed by Bilall Fallah and Adil El Arbi, the directing duo behind “Bad Boys for Life,” one of the several box office smashes of pandemic-ravaged 2020. Christina Hodson (“The Flash”) penned the screenplay.

The Green Lantern or Peacemaker series will probably beat Batgirl to HBOMax. A Batgirl movie could work since she’s a fun, bright, likable character in the grim and mostly unpleasant world of Batman. However, she works best when next to a dour character like Batman, so you see the difference in their personalities (kind of like how fun-loving Tim Drake was next to Bruce Wayne).
