Fans and showbiz insiders alike have been left scratching their heads at the cancellation of Batgirl, reportedly while the film was in its final stages of post production. Understandably, directors Adil El Arbi and Bilall Falla are as “saddened and shocked by the news” as anyone.
“We still can’t believe it,” the duo wrote in a post shared to Instagram. “As directors, it is critical that our work be shown to audiences, and while the film was far from finished, we wish that fans all over the world would have had the opportunity to see and embrace the final film themselves. Maybe one day they will insha’Allah.”
