‘Batgirl’ star reveals first look of Barbara Gordon

Leslie Grace, star of HBO Max’s ‘Batgirl’, shares an official first look at Barbara Gordon’s new costume for the upcoming movie. The film will mark Batgirl’s second appearance in a live-action feature film, the first being 1997’s ‘Batman & Robin’ where she was portrayed by Alicia Silverstone, reports Screen Rant.

Grace shared a photo of herself sporting the Batgirl suit in a post to Instagram, captioning it with a quote from DC’s Batgirl: Year One by Scott Beatty, Chuck Dixon, Marcos Martin, Alvaro Lopez, Javier Rodriguez and Willie Schubert.

“I use their expectations against them. That will be their weakness. Not mine. Let them all underestimate me… And when their guard is down, and their pride is rising, let me kick their butts,”she wrote.

In DC Comics lore, Batgirl is the secret alias of Barbara Gordon. Barbara is the daughter of James Gordon, who serves as the commissioner of Gotham City’s police department and is a close ally of Batman.
