Actress Leslie Grace recently debuted the first official look at her Barbara Gordon in costume from the set of HBO Max’s upcoming Batgirl film. Now leaked set footage has revealed a glimpse of the heroine in action.
First appearing in Detective Comics #359, Barabra Gordon is the daughter of Gotham City police commissioner James Gordon and a prominent member of the Bat-Family. She fought alongside Batman and Co. for years as Batgirl until the Joker severely injured her spine, making her a paraplegic and forcing her to fight a crime a different way. Known as Oracle, Gordon provided intelligence and computer hacking services to assist her fellow superheroes, eventually becoming a founding member of the Birds of Prey.

In addition to the footage, new set photos have also surfaced. Some fans have noted that the character can be seen wearing goggles, much like she did in the comic run that inspired her costume.
Bad Boys for Life directors Adil El Arbi and Bilall Fallah will helm the film. Additionally, the script hails from Birds of Prey scribe Christina Hodson. It was previously announced that the project will debut on the Warner Bros. streaming service HBO Max.
