“Bad Boys For Life” helmers Adil El Arbi and Bilall Fallah will direct Warner’s solo “Batgirl” film, according to THR.
The project is reportedly being developed as a HBO Max film, and boasts a script from “Bumblebee” writer Christina Hodson.
“With Batgirl, we hope to take the audience on a fun ride and see a different side of Gotham,” said producer Kristin Burr. “Christina’s script is crackling with spirit. Adil and Bilall have an excited and joyous energy which is infectious, making them the perfect filmmakers for this Batproject. And I’m just psyched I get to be part of the DC universe, which is super cool.”
“Buffy” alum Joss Whedon had been previously attached to adapt the film in 2018.
Arbi and Fallah are also attached to direct the fourth “Beverly Hills Cop” film, which Eddie Murphy recently said would be his next project. Maybe not?
