Marvel President Lends Support To 'Batgirl' Directors After DC Movie Shelved
Los Angeles, August 6 - Marvel Studios' president Kevin Feige has lent his support to the Batgirl directors Billal Fallah and Adil Al Arbi following the news of Warner Bros. shelving the release of the DC movie.
Billal and Adil have directed one of the episodes of Marvel/Disney+ recent series, Ms. Marvel, and share a good rapport with Feige. Al Arbi posted on his Instagram Story a screenshot of an email that he recently received from the Feige.
In the message, Feige wrote, "My friends I had to reach out and let you know we are all thinking about you both. Because of the wonderful news about the wedding (congrats!) and the disappointing news about Batgirl. Very proud of you guys for all the amazing work you do and particularly Ms. Marvel of course! Can't wait to see what is next for you. Hope to see you soon".
Feige is not the only big Hollywood name who showed support to the filmmakers, Guardians of the Galaxy director James Gunn and Baby Driver helmer Edgar Wright also reach out to the directors and expressed disappointment on the shocking decision by Warner studio.
Batgirl stars Leslie Grace in the title role along with Michael Keaton as Batman, among others. The film was supposed to release on the streaming platform HBO Max later this year but now stands canceled. Warner Bros., however, defended its bold move and shared a statement on the same.
"The decision to not release 'Batgirl' reflects our leadership's strategic shift as it relates to the DC universe and HBO Max", it said.
The statement continued to read, "Leslie Grace is an incredibly talented actor and this decision is not a reflection of her performance. We are incredibly grateful to the filmmakers of 'Batgirl' and 'Scoob! Holiday Haunt' and their respective casts and we hope to collaborate with everyone again in the near future".
