Batgirl Movie Reportedly Included Michelle Pfeiffer Catwoman Easter Egg

"They do show Michelle Pfeiffer's Catwoman mask, which I think is something that fans--" Belloni revealed.

"A nice Easter egg, yeah," Kit echoed.

"Yeah, a nice little Easter egg," Belloni added, before clarifying. "Although Michelle Pfeiffer is not in the movie."

Kinda figured they'd do that. Imagine the backlash if they were to make a completely different Batgirl project and it be starring a red headed white girl.

Yeah, unfortunately they're stuck. If they took the role away entirely and gave it to someone else - especially a white person - there'd be Hell to pay online.

It's very hard to get excited at all about movies anymore considering what the people making them prioritize.

Right and of course she should have been. That's the character, period. But now there is no course correction without social repercussions that will overshadow the course correction itself. I wouldn't even do that if I was Zaslov (recasting her with a white chick, at THIS point). So and so as Batgirl was built into a sh** Batgirl movie. Fine. The parachute out of the ire is to put her in a Batgirl movie that isn't sh**. Or better yet, first establish her in a Batfleck movie then worry about that, which is what they should have done the first time around.

Better to hear online $#!( than lose money on woke $#!(. Maybe studios, Warner at least, is learning that.

SJW trash already makes conspiracy theories that Zaslav is superultramegaracist who wants to cancel all movies and series with a "diverse" characters.

SJW once again prove they are autistic trash.

I don't mind if some characters are changed races but we have black Catwoman in the Batman movies and now Black Batgirl? Black Commissioner Gordon? And they wanted a black Superman movie? And the Green Lantern series was going to be about Jon Stewart the black Green Lantern? And we have Black Adam played by Dwayne Johnson? That's a whole lot of black. We dodged a bullet with Black Canary not being black, but that would have been too on the nose.

See the litmus test for absolutely stupidity and ignorance on these forums is to comb through the history and look at the comparison of responses to posts like this.

For example, I've never even said anything remotely close to what you said but the two or three easily wounded board bimbos here flung "racist", "sexist" etc simply because they can't process a position of reality counter to their own life-anger.

But you post this kind of $#!( routinely and there's crickets.

Honest to God people don't even know what "racism" is. Citing an "ism" is nothing more than a vengeance-rebuttal now for when anyone calls out a person's or a group of people's stupidity or ignorance. But you are citing shades of "blackness" and there are crickets.

The Actress who plays Black Canary is biracial hence why she is light skinned

her dad is white and mom is black so a little bit of both

I knew she looked a little caramel colored, that's what I meant. A lot of mixed raced people could pass for either depending what features they inherit from their parents.

The **** are you guys talking about??

I thibk the cancellation of the film was a very strange choice. I mean, even if it was a total disaster (which it almost definitely wasn’t) people spent years pouring themselves into it. I think it deserves to at least get out.

i’ll smuggle the drive in my ass if i have to.

In an interview translated from French with @Skript_fr on TikTok, Bilall Fallah, one of the directors for the recently canceled Batgirl movie, revealed that his fellow director, Adil El Arbi, tried to get him to salvage some of the footage on his phone.

Sadly, when Fallah went on the server, "everything was gone," including all of the scenes with Michael Keaton's Batman:

"No, we have nothing. Adil called and told me, 'Go ahead! Shoot everything on your phone!' I went on the server... Everything was gone. We were [like]... 'F**ing ****!'... We did not [even] keep [the scenes] with Batman in it."

In The Zaslav Era if they don't want something to exist it won't

Huh... A piece of lost media made in the digital age and it's intentional... I know this movie was probably going to be bad but I really don't like that something like this can happen.

It's not clear if it's lost lost. It wasn't still on one particular server when the directors apparently (possibly illegally?) went to see if it was still there to retrieve it. Probably WB moved it somewhere more archival and secure to prevent exactly that from happening, which it would've had it still been there.

I'm sure execs had that footage locked up an hour BEFORE they made the announcement to cancel it.

It's their proprietary footage and they don't want it leaked. I think it's pretty simple.
