the cancellation<\/a>. Directors Adil El Arbi and Bilall Fallah said they tried to access footage from the movie afterward and couldn\u2019t. According to them, Warner Bros. had blocked them from the servers.\u00a0<\/p>\nThe cast, understandably, was not thrilled. Brendan Fraser later called the cancellation tragic, especially because of what Leslie Grace\u2019s Batgirl could have meant to young girls. Michael Keaton had a more darkly funny reaction, essentially saying he didn\u2019t lose sleep over it because he got paid, though he felt bad for the directors.\u00a0<\/p>\n
And mere months before the shocking news, Grace (Batgirl herself) was talking up the movie and revealed she and the directors were even discussing sequel ideas. “There\u2019s crazy stunts, crazy drops. She\u2019s a biker chick, so you\u2019re going to see her do a bunch of badassery.” She added, “There were a lot of night shoots. There were a lot of long days, but it was so worth it.” Uh…\u00a0<\/p>\n
Warner Bros. later insisted the cancellation had nothing to do with Grace\u2019s performance, and DC Studios co-head Peter Safran eventually said the film was \u201cnot releasable\u201d and \u201cbuilt for the small screen.\u201d Maybe that\u2019s true. Maybe it wasn\u2019t good. But plenty of bad superhero movies have been released.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
