DC Films has unexpectedly cancelled its Batgirl film, despite it having already been filmed.
The film – which was to introduce DC Films’ first transgender character, played by Ivory Aquino – was due to be released on HBO Max.
But it was confirmed on Tuesday (2 August) that the film won’t see the light of day. According to The New York Post, which broke the story, early test screenings didn’t bode well for the film, with a source saying: “They think an unspeakable Batgirl is going to be irredeemable.”
