Leaked Batgirl fight scene quickly removed from social media
An unedited fight scene from the canceled Batgirl movie was removed from social media shortly after it leaked on March 19. The clip was posted by the Twitter account DC Film News. They shared details about the fight choreography and credited the stunt performers involved. In the raw footage, Leslie Grace portrayed Barbara Gordon, also known as Batgirl. She fought against several men in what appeared to be an apartment. Despite being at a size disadvantage, Batgirl held her own. The scene included a humorous moment where she broke through a wall into a bathroom, surprising someone sitting there. Fans will likely never see this scene completed. Warner Bros. canceled the release of Batgirl almost three years ago during a major restructuring. The movie was set to come out before other titles in the DC Extended Universe. The decision to scrap the film received criticism from both industry insiders and movie fans. The storyline focused on Gordon managing her life as the daughter of Gotham’s police commissioner while being a vigilante. Michael Keaton, who reprised his role as Batman in the film, recently said he was not upset about its cancellation. He said he didn’t feel disappointed but sympathized with the directors. The Batgirl movie was directed by Adil El Arbi and Bilall Fallah, and featured an impressive cast, including J.K. Simmons and Brendan Fraser.
