Michael Keatons Batman return is only allowed to be seen

The news that the Batgirl film will not be released for tax reasons went around the world. Since then, many have wondered if there is any way to see the $90 million film. Above all, the creators, who were denied access to the servers with the filmed material. This week, the chosen ones are invited to extremely exclusive screenings: they get to see Batgirl and say goodbye – like at a funeral.

Batman spin-off: This is known from the screenings

The message is based on an exclusive report by the Hollywood Reporter. According to inside sources, the film, in which Michael Keaton returns as Batman and Leslie Grace plays Batgirl, will be shown to a select group of attendees:

  • The screenings are taking place this week at the Warner Bros. property
  • to be invited People who worked on the filmi.e. cast, crew and staff from agency, management and higher levels of the studio.
  • A source for THR has described the events as “funeral screenings”. Here it is, so to speak Farewell before the film is locked away forever. So when these screenings are over, the only people on the planet who have seen Batgirl will be:

  • The mentioned members of the film crew and studios.
  • The audience at the only public test screening that took place several months ago.
  • Is there any chance Batgirl will still be released?

    the Chances are extremely badthat Batgirl will ever get a theatrical release or be seen on a streaming service. The DC film is locked away by Warner Bros. Discovery for tax write-off as a loss as a result of a merger. That should save a few million. The prerequisite for this, however, is that Warner does not earn any money with the superhero film. Therefore it must not be shown anywhere.

    The two directors Adil El Arbi and Bilall Fallah (Bad Boys 3) recently revealed the following about the condition of the film and their access to the material in a French interview (via SKRIPT ):

  • They were mid-cut when word came from Warner that Batgirl was being cancelled.
  • The film wasn’t finished yet. Most of the visual effects would have been missing and scenes would have had to be reshot.
  • Shortly after the report, both of them no longer had access to the servers with the material: “We just thought, ‘Holy shit!’ All scenes with Batman in it!”
  • Michael Keaton, star of Batman and Batman Returns, was set to return as the Dark Knight. At least there is a picture of the Batman return. You can find out more about the background to the Batgirl decision and the consequences for the industry and the public in our podcast stream browsing:
