The new ‘Batgirl’ movie will be about Barbara Gordon, better known as Batgirl. She is the daughter of Gotham’s Police Commissioner James Gordon and the sidekick of Batman and Robin. The script was written by Christina Hodson, who also wrote the DC films ‘Birds of Prey’ and ‘The Flash’ and the blockbuster ‘Bumblebee’. Kristin Burr is the producer on duty. She already started working on ‘Cruella’, but is now venturing into a superhero film. “With Batgirl, we want to take the audience on a fun ride and show a different side of Gotham. Adil and Bilall have a happy energy that is very infectious. They are the perfect filmmakers for this project, ”said Burr. The film will be shown on HBO Max.
