“Batgirl” has been the talk of the Hollywood industry since Warner Bros. decided to keep it in a drawer despite its production being almost complete. The commercial decision of the said study shocked many, including Brendan Fraser, tasked with bringing the film’s villain to life, or Michael Keatonan actor who was about to recover his role as Batman in the aforementioned film.
In his day Fraser assured that he felt disappointed because “the fans really wanted to see the movie”while Keaton did his best to make it clear that the cancellation was not due to anything even remotely close to the quality of the tapebut it was right “a business decision”. Now even Joe Russo, co-director of ‘Avengers: Endgame’, wanted to comment on it adding to the general sadness and agreeing with Fraser on a key point. This actor, who after a long season away from the main roles, is making a sensation with his lead character in ‘The Whale’; he claimed that “Batgirl” ended up being “the canary in the coal mine”. Fraser then wanted to suggest that the film had been a victim of that instability in the industry which is causing unprecedented decision making.
Russo goes the same way, calling it “murder” that “Batgirl” won’t finally see the light on HBO Max, the streaming platform for which it was developed. “It is rare that something so high-profile, such an expensive film, has been killed in this way.. It’s sad, but we’re at a time when corporate sociopathy will raise its head because people are afraid. “.
financial responsibility
“Batgirl” will never be released because bet on the tax deduction resulting from keeping it in a drawer was ultimately the move considered by the leadership of Warner Bros. Discovery economically more “responsible”.. David Zaslav, newly appointed CEO at the time, had inherited a $ 3 billion debt from his predecessor, which lifted the company from much-needed financial stability. Zeslav then made it clear that his priority is for Warner Bros. to be a profitable business. reason that also has a lot to do with the recent cancellation of ‘Westworld’.
