Batgirl directors 'shocked' by decision to shelve movie

Adil El Arbi and Bilall Fallah "can't believe" studio executives have shelved the film indefinitely. On Tuesday, Warner Bros. executives announced that they were scrapping the superhero movie which was scheduled to debut on HBO Max later this year, despite reportedly spending $90 million (£74 million) on the production. Bosses insisted the decision wasn't based on the quality of the film or performance of Leslie Grace in the lead role and on Wednesday, Adil and Bilall issued a joint statement expressing their sadness over the call.
