But Warner Brothers decided to dump it in the trash instead. Not even going to be released for PPV or cable. Not even for Netflix or something. They spent over 6 million on it. One wonders why. Maybe test audiences trashed it. Might have been too woke. Nobody's talking.
She voted for Trump? I read that they've spent $90 mill on it.

NEW YORK — In a highly unusual move that rattled Hollywood, Warner Bros. axed the “Batgirl” film planned for HBO Max, opting to shelve the $90 million film as the reorganized studio revamps its approach to streaming and DC Comics films.

It's not over when you lose. It's over when you quit.
Perhaps it simply sucked. Woman wrote the screenplay, which triples the chances it’s a woke POS. Directors are Moroccan-Belgians; look like a couple to me……
On the other hand maybe they just wanted to avoid another Halle Berry/Catwoman fiasco (The film received seven Golden Raspberry Award nominations and won in the categories of Worst Picture, Worst Actress, Worst Director and Worst Screenplay, and has been voted one of the worst films of all time).
I bet they spent a lot more than 6 million, 10x that much
Yes indeed. I imagine more than that was "washed" under the table.
Hollywood is very good about that.
I used to know a number of the heavy hitters in Warner Bros.' administration. There were some very sharp people there, but today, they're all gone and the "woke" kids are running the studio. Batgirl is a result of that.
I'm glad I'm retired. I'd hate to have to try and deal with "the kids."
