New report reveals details about Michael Keaton's Batman role in the scrapped Batgirl movie:
Holy cancelation, Batman. DC's Batgirl, which would have starred Leslie Grace as Barbara Gordon and Michael Keaton as Batman, will not be released by Warner Bros. in theaters or on HBO Max. Despite being nearly completed at a reported price tag of $90 million, the Batman spinoff developed as a straight-to-streaming movie has been shelved under the new Warner Bros. Discovery regime led by CEO David Zaslav, multiple outlets reported Tuesday.
According to ViewerAnon, a reputable insider with knowledge of Warner Bros. and other studio test screenings, Keaton would have appeared in just five scenes in Batgirl. Set photos captured from the Glasgow set of Batgirl showed the Burtonverse Batman back in action and wearing an upgraded version of his suit from 1989's Batman and 1992's Batman Returns.
— ViewerAnon August 2, 2022 "He didn't train Barbara, she just dressed up as Batman for a Halloween party, stopped some terrorists, and tweaked the costume to be a superhero," @ViewerAnon revealed on Twitter, adding:"He meets Barbara twice in costume, first on the street telling her not to do this, then in one of those big Tim Burton-y towers where he helps her with something she needs.
