Caution! This article contains minor spoilers for the 2017 WonderWoman Film
#Batgirl is just as important to the Batman universe as well, Batman himself. With this year’s #SDCC come and gone, it was only a matter of time before got information on upcoming film projects.
It was announced that #Avengers director and creator of #BuffyTheVampireSlayer, #JossWhedon would be taking on the long rumoured film project, Batgirl. Whedon is no stranger to the superhero genre having directed the first two Avengers films for Marvel.
According to ComicBookMovie.com, Whedon has said the following:
“She came up and I started getting obsessed with how a young woman could get hardcore enough to need to

She is virtually everywhere these days and it has nothing to do with the fact that she comes from a famous family. Yeah, her dad might be singer and actor Lenny Kravitz, her mother is actress Lisa Bonet and her stepdad is Jason Momoa AKA #Aquaman but that has nothing to do with her amazing acting skills. She has featured in some of the world’s most well known franchises including Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them and Divergent. She co-starred with Rosario Dawson in the Lego Batman Movie where she had the small role of Selina Kyle/Catwoman. It’s safe to say that she would make a good choice to play …show more content…
Despite The Joker being an enemy of Batman, he is just as high up on Barbara’s hit list of villains as well. After all, he is the one that abuses her and assaults her to the point that she becomes paralysed, hence becoming Oracle.
#BlackCanary
Fans of the CW series #Arrow might not be aware but Black Canary is often associated with Batgirl. She is the daughter of a vigilante and a cop so she was a born crime fighter. As to what which name she uses (Dinah or Laurel) it is entirely up for debate.
#BarbaraKean
You cannot have Batgirl as being Barbara Gordon without some mention of her mother, Barbara Kean. If they do end up showing both Barbaras it would interesting to see what kind of relationship they have.
Robin’s Involvement
A vital part of the Batman family is Robin. Depending on the timeline that the film takes place in, Robin would play a role no matter how big or small it might be. They could incorporate the romantic interaction between Robin/Nightwing and Batgirl like there was in the comics and various animated projects.
What is great about Dick Grayson’s relationship with Barbara is that it could explored in a number of ways. Their first meeting through to their platonic relationship to their romantic
We always called this brave hero, Batman. Few knew his real identity, and they have reframed from sharing this information with the public, even as police commissioner, I James Gordon, never knew his real identity.
In origin, a hero is an archetype character that refers to protectors, warriors, or god-like man who protects humanity. For instance, Hercules was a hero in Greek mythology. In modern culture, heroism is recognized as an extremely popular trait that a character can possess. In this case, Bat Man, also referred to as The Dark Knight, is indisputably idealized as a hero. Unlike most superheros in comicbooks culture, Bat Man is a simple human being with absolutely no superpowers. Regardless of that, he as a simple human being still exhibits the courage, intelligence, talent and the necessary skills in fighting crime and defeating potentially hazardous villains seeking to either rule the world or cause destruction. In detail, Bat Man’s real name is Bruce Wayne. Bruce was 10 years old when his parents were murdered which fundamentally change his perception about the world. After his parents’ death, Bruce inherited a multibillion dollar company that his father created before his birth, which explains why he has the most advanced technology to help him fight crime. While growing up, Bruce trained himself to fight and had been working out. One night, he came to the conclusion that Gotham city is falling into the hands of criminals. For that reason, he convinced himself that it should be his obligation to prevent it, although he needed a hero identity to hide his real identity
Billionaire playboy by day and Gotham’s saviour by night; Bruce Wayne/Batman (Christian Bale) is finding his double life burdensome. He considers ending his superhero days and attempts to find someone Gotham can look up to for encouragement and reassurance. Turning to Gotham’s new ‘white knight’, District Attorney Harvey Dent (Aaron Eckhart), Batman, along with incorruptible ally Lt. Gordon (Gary Oldman), attempts to eradicate organized crime for good. Maggie Gyllenhaal joins the star-studded cast as Rachel Dawes, showing a much softer side to her character than Katie Holmes.
Batman was created after Detective Comics (D.C.) wanted a new super hero to follow-up after Superman. In May of 1933, Bob Kane and Bill Finger created Batman. Bob was born on October 24, 1915 and died November 3, 1998. Bill was born February 8, 1914 and died January 1974. Bill always loved comics as a child and still when he went to high school at DeWitt Clinton High School in the Bronx New York. He and Bob went to the same high school but never socialized because they were in different classes. Bob meet Bill when Bill was working as a shoe salesman. They worked on many comics together for kids comic books and local newspapers. When they found out that Detective Comics (D.C.) wanted a new super hero they went to work. One day Bob came to Bill with a character, Batman. Bill liked the idea but said it looked too much like Superman. The original illustration had a Robin style mask and red outfit. So Bob took a Webster’s Dictionary and found a picture of a bat. He added bat ears to the mask, giving the full mask a more mysterious look. He changed the colors to black and yellow and added a cape that was cut like bat wings. When writing the comics Bill made Batman’s personality a...
Bruce Wayne, Batman’s secret identity, is an American billionaire, playboy, philanthropist, and owner of Wayne Enterprises. Batman is one of the most well-known and well-liked superheroes of all time probably because of all of the comics, TV shows, movies and video games with him in it. Many are interested in Batman mainly because he is human, has no super powers and no special abilities just like a normal person but continues in many super human things using his gadgets, a body suit and a brilliant mind. Not only are these some of the differences between him and some other super heroes but he wants to see justice served and to defeat his enemies because he focuses on what is right and what is wrong. Batman has starred in about fourteen films both as a starring character and as an ensemble character beginning in 1943 and the latest in 2012 with two more coming in 2016 and 2017. Having earned a total of U.S. $1,900,844,295, the Batman series is the fifth-highest-grossing film series in North America. The first full-length movie of batman made in 1989 shows that to overcome great diversity one must step out of the bounds of what is socially and morally acceptable though the characterization of Batman, the contrast between
Batman is regarded as one of America's most loved heroes, despite his lack of super powers. This is perhaps why he is thought to be a more realistic character than the likes of Superman, Wonder Woman, or most other DC characters.
It has been eight years since Batman and Commissioner Gordon disappeared. Batman takes the blame for the death of Harvey Dent, he sacrifices his all for the world’s benefit. A cat burglar and a terrorist, named Bane, foil Batman’s plans, and force Batman out of exile and into a battle.
Batman went through a series of events to become the batman. Batman doesn’t want people to find out his identity and he thinks that’s what makes him a hero. Batman is smart therefore when he knew that people hate he decided to stay hidden in the bat suit and capture the bad guy known as Joker, like the time when Harvey was in the police truck after stating that he was Batman so the killing that Joker was committing would stop. Wayne is the millionaire hot boy,who spends all his time spending money and hanging out
Somebody who had established higher power in their community. Somebody who tried to run from fate, and has the moment of recognition and understanding of their destiny. Batman. Even though he is considered the strong and powerful superhero of Gotham City, Batman's characteristic features show that he relates strongly to that of a "tragic" hero. In the beginning, the Batman is presented at a higher state of appreciation, even though the police see him as a vigilante. Despite his wealth, Batman, otherwise known as Bruce Wayne, is easily relatable to audiences, which makes it easy to sympathize and empathize with the character. Batman is in a constant battle within himself, trying to be the good guy, while defeating the bad guys. His morals prove true when he admits that he won't kill any of the many villians that cause destruction for Gotham City. But, because of this moral, sometimes the villians end up escaping and doing more harm then good. In the end, this interal chaos and internal battle is seen interally and externally through Batman. At the end of the most recent Batman series, The Dark Knight, his exit at the end of the movie is, in essence, his figurative death. Bruce Wayne wants to keep Gotham City safe. And with the "Batman" gone, villians will be least likely to continue to destroy and conquer. As an audience, we cling to the edge of our seats and feel dismay for our beloved superhero and what is to become of
Superman and Batman, they serve they same purpose and fight for the same outcome, good over evil. But the only thing similar about Clark Kent and Bruce Wayne's childhood is that they were both young. The fact that people are most influenced when they are young and start to obtain their personalities around the age of five suggests that if different circumstances had derived from either situation that Metropolis would have never had a Superman and Gotham City would be a crime ridden vicinity without the Dark Knight. I am glad that the world has the opportunity to partake in the adventures of these DC Comic hereos. Their stories proves that any can go from zero to hero.
In Batman (1989) by Tim Burton, Jack Nicholson played the role of the Joker. One important fact of his evaluation as the Joker in this movie is analyzing his origin story. The Joker betraying his boss (Carl Grissom) causes him to turn into the Joker for the first time by falling into Acme chemicals. This happened because Jack Napier (Joker) was having an affair with his boss 's mistress where Carl Grissom manipulated him to rob a chemical company. Here is where Batman first appeared and tried
The plot of Batman Begins mainly focuses on the origins and psychology behind Batman, and how he copes with the struggles he faces. One major thing that changed the course of the story, was the death of the Thomas and Martha Wayne. It formed an emotion change in the story that effects Bruce Wayne and all of Gotham to arise the struggles and problems that will be faced in the rest of the movie. Another key point in the story was the seven-year disappearance of Bruce Wayne. When in the Chinese prison it would also discipline him, which was something that he hadn’t had much of before. The meeting of Ras Al Ghul and his further training were also key experiences to develop Bruce Wayne into Batman. These were the some of the building blocks in the plot. The plot of The Dark Knight was very different to Batman Begins. The main plot is that Batman has limits and Gotham needed a different hero, whereas, in Batman Begins, Batman was the hero and didn’t think he had any limits. The foundation of the Dark Knight was more of what had happened in the few absent years between the two movies, and not what would happen. The
What about Wynnsong Audience: My audience will consist of people looking for a movie theater that fits all of their needs. When choosing a movie theater what is a costumer looking for?

CAT WOMAN The thrilling film Cat woman came out in 2004, a film based on the same character in DC comics created by Rob Kane. Cat woman goes as far back as batman time, actually featured in batman 1 in 1940 but then just known as the cat. Cat woman was first known for having a thirst for elevated theft. In the after dying as Patience Philips and coming back as cat woman she and any other cat women out there were there to teach a life lesson to all humanity that there is no pure person and that we are equal and that there is neither pure good nor evil. The film Cat woman was directed by PitofComar a French director who had made his English debut for this film.
