When asked what projects he has coming up, Brendan Fraser couldn't resist a Batgirl cancellation joke 👀 'Batgirl? Oh. [STARES INTO CAMERA]' 😐 He managed to keep a straight face for a few seconds... then lost it 🤣🤣🤣
Following Warner Bros. Discovery's decision to cancel HBO Max's Batgirl film, Brendan Fraser pokes fun at the movie getting axed. After the merger between Warner Bros. and Discovery was completed earlier this year, shake-ups have been happening inside the new company. With David Zaslav as the new Warner Bros. Discovery CEO, the company is quickly moving away from the previous regime's strategies for producing and delivering content to its consumers.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY One of their biggest decisions that sent a shock through Hollywood was the sudden cancellation of HBO Max's Batgirl movie, starring Leslie Grace as Barbara Gordon. Batgirl had finished principal photography in late March and was in the midst of post-production when the studio decided to scrap the film. There were several factors that played into Warner Bros. Discovery's decision to shelve the DC picture, including getting a tax write-off.
For clarity, Fraser wasn't making fun of Batgirl as an actual movie, but rather Warner Bros. Discovery deciding to give up on a project the studio had already spent $90 million by the time the decision was revealed to the public. In the end, it was a light joke that wasn't meant to offend any of his Batgirl directors, cast, or crew members, as Fraser has shared nothing but respect for his colleagues.
Even though Batgirl will, unfortunately, never be released on any platform, it's not impossible for Fraser's Firefly to show up in a different DCEU project. According to reports from August, despite the controversial decision, Warner Bros. Discovery is allegedly considering having Grace's Batgirl in a future movie.
