With the Batgirl movie having gone through a fair big of drama when Joss Whedon left, it seems that we may finally be closer to seeing it happen on the big screen as a new rumour suggests an actress may be very close to nabbing the role.
It seems that The CW’s The 100 star Lindsay Morgan could be on for playing Batgirl/Barbera Gordon according to a fan site (tweet below).
The actress has recently been tweeting about a ‘new project’ along with sharing Batgirl news articles on Twitter, so her name is on the fan radar already.
However, the Tweet (when translated by Google) reads: “NOW IT’S YOURS! Present at Convention Space Walkers 3 in Paris, Lindsey Morgan said she auditioned to play Batgirl in theaters and is waiting only for the producers”.
Now this certainly isn’t confirmation of any sort, but it could be confirmation that casting is ongoing and the movie is close to setting itself in motion – and Morgan is a solid actress and could certainly be a contender for the role.
Batgirl’s father, Commissioner Gordon, is already canon in the DC Cinematic, having been played by the awesome JK Simmons in Justice League, so it will be great to see the batfamily begin to truly flourish on the big screen.
What say you all?

Marc is a self-confessed nerd. Ever since seeing Star Wars for the first time around 1979 he’s been an unapologetic fan of the Wars and still believes, with Clone Wars and now Underworld, we are yet to see the best Star Wars. He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
