Batgirl’sLeslie Grace on Working with Keaton, Fraser, and Her Hero’s Future

Theupcoming Batgirl movieis await to be a pretty big deal when it hit HBO Max in the near time to come . Not just in the sentiency that it ’s the first cinematic outing for Barbara Gordon since Batman & Robin all the agency back in 1997 , but also forbringing Michael Keaton backas the Caped Crusader . Sure , we ’ve known for awhile that he would be back for the role thanks to news surrounding the oft - delayedFlash movie , but there ’s still something to be say for seeing him come in back as an older Bruce Wayne and potentially taking a protégé under his wing .

While mouth toVarietyabout the film , star Leslie Grace was inquire about the feel of seeing Keaton back in legal action , which she key as “ godforsaken for everyone . ” She was , of course of instruction , very vague about what to expect from Keaton in the movie , but she call in working with him “ the poppycock of her dreams , I could n’t even think that I was sharing place with Batman . ” It was also equally surreal for her to crop with Brendan Fraser , who plays the film ’s villain Firefly . “ I ’m not suppose to like him , but he ’s such a immense teddy bear , ” continued Grace . praise his previous action flick experience thanks to The Mummy franchise , she teased the fight scenes in store : “ There ’s crazy fire . softheaded stunts , mad bead . She ’s [ Batgirl ] a biker chick , so you ’re going to see her do a crowd of badassery . ”

Batgirl is Grace ’s second role after last year ’s In the Heights , and the wizard of playing a superhero only hit her once she in the end donned the costume for the first metre . “ That was the first existent consequence where I was like , ‘ Oh , wow , we ’re here . I ’m doing this . Like , I am really Batgirl . ’ ” Being a superhero , she include , was rather consuming , to the point where she did n’t recall to ask old Batgirl Alicia Silverstone or Gal Gadot for their experiences . She did n’t go in wholly unreasoning , though : she arrive at out toSasha Calle , the Supergirl of the Flash movie , andBlue Beetle’sXolo Maridueña . “ I ’m hope we get to meet soon , because we ’re part of the new gen . ”

In Grace ’s words , there ’s “ so much ” that happens in the Batgirl movie . “ “ There ’s this love account , there ’s this father - daughter relationship . There ’s looking at the world through a lens that is n’t just black and white . ” With how pop Batman media tends to be , she was of course asked about the possibility of seeing her Babs again in the future tense . Even though the DC plastic film are in frequent ( if notconstant ) magnetic field , she did admit that there ’s presently discussions about a 2nd Batgirl motion-picture show . But obviously , nothing concrete yet . “ We ’ve already been blab about where do we take this from here , ” she said . “ But we bewilder to see this one first . There ’s emphatically some public lecture about what it could be . ”

Batgirl will release on HBO Max later this year .
