Whedon had exited Batgirl in February citing issues with the story. He had said in a statement, “Batgirl is such an exciting project and Warners/DC such collaborative and supportive partners that it took me months to realise I really didn’t have a story.”

Batgirl will portray the life of Barbara Gordon, the daughter of police commissioner James Gordon, who doubles as one of Batman’s sidekicks.
