While fans never received their Batgirl film, Leslie Grace still wishes that they could have seen the way the film turned out. Had the film come to fruition, Grace would have played opposite Brendan Fraser, who was set to be the villain Firefly.
In a recent Collider interview, Grace revealed her time with Fraser on set and how the scenes would have played out. The actress compliments Fraser, “He’s one of the kindest people in the world, and I felt so blessed to have him as my sparring partner.” She also noted her experience with the film, “I truly had one of [the best] experiences with Batgirl.”
Grace continued to give fans a tiny glimpse of the action in Batgirl, ” In terms of the experience of shooting, we were all so excited for people to see a lot of the action, a lot of the practical shots we did with fire. Our movie was full of practical fire, which was really hard to shoot.” She added about her scenes with Fraser, “We had so many amazing action scenes together where we were beating each other up, but hugging in between takes because he’s just so sweet. So I would’ve loved people to see those moments, but you know what? You have the experience, and you keep on rolling, and I feel so blessed, all in all, that I have those memories and hopefully maybe in some future, some clips will arise and people will get to enjoy a little bit of it. But for now, we’ll just have to keep it going as it going in comic folklore, I guess, with all of our memories and our stories while we can.”
Both actors have been vocal about the cancellation of the film, continuing to remind fans of the potential it had. However, to their dismay, Warner Bros. Discovery continues to stick to their decision.
