Others questioned Warner Bros.' decision to cancel the film whilst pointing out that Sony re-released Morbius, which was a commercial failure and was widely panned by critics and audiences.Earlier on Tuesday, Warner Bros. released a statement, officially announcing the news that Batgirl has been canceled. It reads:''The decision to not release Batgirl reflects our leadership’s strategic shift as it relates to the DC universe and HBO Max. Leslie Grace is an incredibly talented actor and this decision is not a reflection of her performance. We are incredibly grateful to the filmmakers of Batgirl and Scoob! Holiday Haunt and their respective casts and we hope to collaborate with everyone again in the near future.''Warner Bros. has recently been going through an internal restructuring after a change in leadership. Per The Hollywood Reporter, several insiders noted that the media conglomerate is focusing more on theatrical films instead of direct-to-OTT releases. This resulted in Batgirl being scrapped despite it being made on an average DC budget of $80 million.More details about Batgirl plot and castMatt Ramos@therealsupesThis role would’ve been life changing for Leslie Grace.
