American filmmaker Kevin Smith, during the latest episode of his `Hollywood Babble-On` show, spoke out against Warner Bros.` decision of axing `Batgirl` while going ahead with `The Flash` movie. According to Variety, Smith called it "an incredibly bad look" for the studio to drop the rare comic book tentpole to be headlined by a Latina actor, especially when they are still moving forward with the Ezra Miller-led tentpole `The Flash`.
"It`s an incredibly bad look to cancel the Latina `Batgirl` movie. I don`t give a shit if the movie was absolute fucking dog shit - I guarantee you that it wasn`t," Smith said. He added, "The two directors [Bilall Fallah and Adil El Arbi] who directed that movie did a couple of episodes of `Ms. Marvel,` and it was a wonderful fucking show and they had more money to do `Batgirl` than they had to do an episode of `Ms. Marvel` and stuff."
