Batgirl starring Leslie Grace is one of the more anticipated films on the HBO Max schedule this year. While the premium streaming service has steered clear of offering a release date just yet, it appears that they are confident enough about the first film to begin discussing a potential sequel. During a recent interview with a talented journalist by the name of Marc Malkin at Variety, Grace hinted that a sequel could already be in the works.
“When do you start shooting Batgirl 2?” Malkin asked.
“We got to see this first one first. But there’s definitely some talks about what it could be. 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,” Grace said as she laughed.
Grace steered clear of revealing too much about a potential sequel, but she didn’t shy away from discussing the first Batgirl‘s plot. She mentioned that the film does center around a “love story” and she noted that they will dive into a “father-daughter” dynamic.
“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,” she explained.
It would be nice to know when Batgirl will debut on HBO Max, but this will have to do for now. Stay tuned for more information regarding the film’s release later this year.
