Warner Bros.’ decision to shelve Adil El Arbi and Bilall Fallah’s Batgirl movie over three years ago was the shot heard around the world of cinema. The choice ignited a backlash from fans that has so far gone ignored — but one person involved in the film thinks there might be some potential for it to be released one day.
“I got the chance to watch it, and it was a phenomenal film,” Jacob Scipio, one of the film’s stars, told The Direct in a new interview. “Man, I’m really sad the world never got to see it. But you know, you never know. You never know.”
He also noted the story of Warner Bros, film Coyote vs. Acme gives him some hope. “It was great that they saved [Coyote vs. Acme], I’m gonna have a ticket and be buying my ticket and seeing that movie myself. So there’s always hope,” Scipio told the outlet. “Hollywood’s a funny place, and I think if enough people want it, it can happen.”
