Warner Bros. has scrapped plans to release a nearly finished “Batgirl” movie that was planned for the streaming service HBO Max, according to two people familiar with the matter who were not authorized to speak publicly.
But the movie fell short of what the company wanted for its key comic book franchise and no longer fit with the studio’s film strategy, the sources said. With a production budget of tens of millions of dollars, releasing “Batgirl” direct to streaming made little sense financially, one person close to the company said. But the movie, as scripted and produced, also wasn’t a big enough of a spectacle to merit a full-blown theatrical release.small screen
Axing a nearly finished movie, especially one with such a high profile, is highly unusual. Choosing to not release a film of that size means the company will have to eat the costs. But a cut of the film tested poorly in screenings and was determined to be unsalvageable, another person familiar with the matter said.
