Michael Keaton recently told GQ magazine that he wasn’t too upset when Warner Bros. scrapped the release of “Batgirl,” in which the actor reprised his iconic role of Batman opposite Leslie Grace in the title role. The studio shelved the film in August 2022 in a cost-cutting move. The $90 million-budgeted “Batgirl” was already shot and through post-production when the decision was made, which came as a shock to the industry. Variety reported that a tax incentive was a driving force behind the decision to kill “Batgirl.”
