£74 million 'unspeakable' Batgirl canned

WARNER Bros has scrapped its new £74 million Batgirl movie after it reportedly received poor reviews in test screenings making it one of the most expensive movies ever to be canned.

The DC Comics film, with actress Leslie Grace in the title role and Michael Keaton returning to the role of Batman, was scheduled for release later this year and is said to have cost the studio about $90million (£74 million) to make.

It was originally set to be made specifically for the streaming service HBO Max but the studio has confirmed it will not be released there or in cinemas.
