BATGIRL Set Photos & Video Give Us Another Look At Leslie Grace In Costume - With Goggles

We finally have a look at Leslie Grace (or her stunt double) suited-up as Batgirl on the set of the HBO Max movie, but this outfit appears to be slightly different from the one in the official image.

We figured a first look at Leslie Grace suited-up as Batgirl on the set of the HBO Max feature was imminent after an official image was released over the weekend, and we now have a glimpse of the actress (or possibly her stunt double) in-costume - with one notable addition!

The images and video aren't the clearest, but we can see that Barbara Gordon is sporting a pair of goggles of some kind. The character has utilized various eye-wear (infrared, night-vision, etc) in the comics over the years, though they were never really considered a permanent fixture of her costume.

Goggles aside, this appears to be the same outfit Babs was sporting in the official shot. The reveal drew a decidedly mixed reaction from fans, with some appreciating the comic-accuracy, and others of the opinion that it looked more like something we'd see on a CW DC TV show.

Batgirl will also star J.K. Simmons as Jim Gordon, and Jacob Scipio and Brendan Fraser in undisclosed roles (the latter is believed to be playing the villainous Firefly). It's also been confirmed that Michael Keaton's Batman will appear.

Loki composer Natalie Holt recently announced that she's signed on to work on the movie's score, while Christina Hodson, who wrote Bumblebee and also worked on Birds of Prey and The Flash, penned the most recent draft of the script.

The HBO Max movie is being directed by Adil El Arbi and Bilall Fallah. No release date has been announced.

@dracula - exactly my feeling.

I think the suit is perfect if that suit is what they are going for. The only thing that may be off is what tone they are going for, and if THIS character can replace THE BATMAN.

@dracula - I don't remember Tom Holland promoting Homecoming with the proto suit, plus we already had him appearing in Civil War in his official suit. Using that example doesn't make sense to me. Why even show her proto suit and then get upset when people criticize it?

Don't get defensive when people share their opinions, just express yours and keep it pushing.

HBO Max has had some good shows.

@MuadDib - Peacemakes is awesome, the Snyder Cut was good, and there are a lot exclusive shows and movies that are pretty good.

@Cbmfilmjunkie - I agree, Peace Maker has been surprisingly good. Pushed through ep 1 and was hooked by ep 3.

HBO has always been known for quality. The issue is they’re now HBOMAX and they have a mandate to pump out LOTS of more content. Which means they can’t be as choosy as they once were.

Maybe Batgirl will be amazballs. But I won’t bet on it solely bc it’s on HBOMAX. The brand is unfortunately not what it used to be.

That and having geriatric Batman coach her instead of Terry is disappointing. Only time will tell how good the storyline is, but based on rumors so far, it sounds weak.

Here’s hoping I’m wrong.

Meh. I know it's in line with her New 52 look, but it still looks like some Party City ish. Hope she gets an upgrade like her current comic suit, which is badass.

@ModHaterSLADE - Party City costumes must have gotten fancier in recent years, cuz Party City costumes in my day were a one sided plastic mask held on by a string and a nylon body sock dyed to look like whatever character. You didn't even get shoes, you had your regular ass sneakers on. And if you wanna see home made cosplay looking like trash, go to any convention in a small town and tell me this looks like that. If anything, this looks like professional as [frick] cosplay that could win a contest.

I think people are seriously confusing "I personally don't like the look of the design" with "this suit is factually bad".

@ElricReturns - Cause it is bad..

@ModHaterSLADE - I think they did a phenomenal job adapting a suit I feel looks ridiculous in the comics too lol but I think it looks like they did a good job.

@ElricReturns - I mean as I said earlier, it is similar to her early days, New 52 look, which since she is just starting out in this makes sense. It just doesn't look that good compared to her other suits.

@ModHaterSLADE - I think once she's under the care of Bruce, she will get upgrades.

ModHaterSLADE - 1/17/2022, 7:50 PM
@ElricReturns - Yea, I mean I don't see them keeping her in this outfit for too long.
