Holy cancelation, Batman. DC’s Batgirl, which would have starred Leslie Grace as Barbara Gordon and Michael Keaton as Batman, will not be released by Warner Bros. in theaters or on HBO Max. Despite being nearly completed at a reported price tag of $90 million, the Batman spinoff developed as a straight-to-streaming movie has been shelved under the new Warner Bros. Discovery regime led by CEO David Zaslav, multiple outlets reported Tuesday. According to The New York Post, which first reported the news, Batgirl tested poorly and was so unsalvagable that the merged company will forego a release in favor of a tax write-down to recoup costs.
