Batgirl Star Leslie Grace Reveals Potential Sequel is Already Being Discussed

A lot of DC fans have been looking forward to seeing Batgirl which will introduce Barbara Gordon's Caped Crusader in the DCEU. While the plot details are still under wraps, we do know that the character could potentially have a major presence in the franchise moving forward. So does it mean that there's going to be a sequel for the upcoming film? Well, it looks like that is already in consideration.

During an interview with Variety, Batgirl star Leslie Grace was asked if there are already plans for a sequel to the film to which she revealed that there are already early discussions about it but nothing is still official as of the moment. However, she did share her excitement about the film and teased that "there's so much that happens."

"We got to see this first one first. But there’s definitely some talks about what it could be," Grace said. "I’ve seen some of what we’ve shot, obviously in the playback and stuff like that, and it’s insane. We’ve already been talking about where do we take this from here because there’s so much that happens in this film. There are a lot of different themes in the plot that we touch on. It’s not just the action. There’s a love story. There’s this father-daughter relationship. There’s looking at the world through a lens that isn’t just black and white and seeing the color and the spectrum between things."

It is still early at this point to determine if the film will have a sequel since it's going to be based on its success during the release and if people are interested to see more of the character moving forward. Given that there are already early discussions about the possibility of making a sequel, it does show that they are confident that the film will be responded well and they also have plans in their mind regarding where they'll take the character in the future of the DCEU. It will take some time before we'll get to find out if Batgirl will have a sequel, but based on the signs so far, it looks like there is a strong chance that it could happen.

The cast includes Grace, J.K. Simmons, Michael Keaton, Brendan Fraser, Ivory Aquino, Jacob Scipio, Rebecca Front, Corey Johnson, and Ethan Kai. Adil El Arbi and Bilall Fallah directed the film. Christina Hodson wrote the screenplay.
