Arbi and Fallah explained to Insider:
It is the biggest disappointment of our career. […] We didn’t get a chance to show Batgirl to the audience so they could judge the film for themselves. In the end, the audience is our ultimate boss.
Batgirl was wiped out between several factors in the DC chaos of 2022. Rumor has it that the film was poorly received at test screenings, In addition, it no longer fit with Warner’s changed streaming strategy.
Apparently it was cheaper for the production studio to collect a tax refund for the mothballed film, than to publish it. According to their own statements, Arbi and Fallah still couldn’t say no to a new DC project.
