There's a lot of excitement surrounding Batgirl, and after filmmakers Adil El Arbi and Bilall Fallah knocked it out of the park with Bad Boys For Life and the Ms. Marvel premiere, it's fair to say the Caped Crusader is in safe hands.

Unfortunately, we don't know when the movie is actually going to be released. With a Christmas setting, the expectation was that it would be released on HBO Max this December. However, The Flash's delay and a change of leadership at Warner Bros. now points to Batgirl debuting theatrically sometime in 2023. 

In the meantime, we have some new behind-the-scenes photos of Leslie Grace suited up as Batgirl and (we're assuming) Brendan Fraser as the villainous Firefly.

While new content from the movie is welcomed, these images haven't been shared in the happiest of circumstances. "Heartbroken," El Arbi says in the post below. "Little brother Finley was a cancer patient who visited the set of Batgirl with his family. He passed away this morning. He was a true superhero and I pray for him and his family. Rest in peace sweet soul."

Needless to say, our thoughts go out to this little boy's family and you can find details on the battle against cancer - and donate to help cancer research - by clicking here

As for Batgirl, we're hoping a trailer will be shared when Warner Bros. brings Black Adam and Shazam! Fury of the Gods to Hall H later this month. Those two blockbusters are all they've hyped for Comic-Con thus far, but we're definitely expecting some big surprises (whether The Flash will be among them given those recent Ezra Miller controversies remains to be seen). 

Keep checking back here for the latest on Batgirl as we have it.

Incredibly sad to hear about that poor child. I hope his family are getting the support they need through this horrible time

As a father of two girls (one with 10 the other with 6) I can’t even imagine the pain if something happened to my girls. RIP little man. It’s so [frick]ing unfair…

Sad news, hope the family is getting support.

Costume looks pretty bad tbh, but the directors work so far has often had good energy around it, so I'm hopeful it's not a bad movie.

Nothing worse than seeing a child going through terminal diseases. Tough.

I love these articles despite the pain involved.
I work in insurance claims & I get to experience these moments on a daily basis.
The amount of pain & anguish you can, not only hear, but, feel over the phone is immeasurable.
The takeaway from this Is the amount of joy that Finley & his parents got to experience together.
I, sincerely, hope & pray that each & every one of you is well, as well as your loved ones.
