This July 13, Disney + launched the latest episode of “Ms. Marvel”, the series directed by directors Adil El Arbi and Bilall Fallah, also responsible for the “Two Rebel Police” saga.
In parallel, El Arabi and Fallah are also responsible for the next “Batgirl” movie, in this case from the DC universe. While “Ms. Marvel” made contact with a younger audience and young Kamala managed to captivate Generation Z, an audience that shares many aspects with the protagonist’s life, the next film in the “Batman” series seems to be aimed at a more adult audience. Although at first you can appreciate a certain similarity between the two stories, the truth is that the two protagonists are very different, as the directors tell in an interview for the media / film: “Well, the thing is, it’s also an origin story, but obviously “Batgirl” is set in Gotham City, so it’s going to be a lot darker than “Ms. Marvel”, plus the protagonist is older. What I mean is that she is not a teenager, she has a job. But I think that on a visual level we will try to preserve the vitality that characterizes our brand“.
Singer Leslie Grace will play the role of ‘Batgirl’, as we have already seen in some photos on her Instagram account. The reactions to the costume that the protagonist will be wearing have been mostly positive (of course there have been negative reviews as well). In general, there was a good reception when you know the suit adaptation which, by the way, is more faithful to that of the comics.

“We could talk about tributes to comics, even to the animated series of ‘Batman’ and the films of Tim Burton. So that’s what we’re trying to do, but obviously it’s going to be a little darker than the world of ‘Ms. Wonder’“says El Arabi. Without a doubt, Tim Burton is an inspiration that helps recreate the fascinating atmosphere of the city of Gotham City. The gothic style and the noir will be present in this film which promises to be the darkest of the entire “Batman” franchise.
Even if still The exact date for the premiere of “Batgirl” is unknown on HBO Max, all episodes of “Ms. Marvel” are now available on Disney +.
