Is Katherine Langford of 13 Reasons Why Set To Play Batgirl?

Watch 13 Reasons Why stars Katherine Langford and Dylan Minnette reveal why they love eachother...

Earlier this year it was announced that DC's Batgirl would be taking to the big screen in her very own movie, however details on who will take on the badass female role have remained much like the flying mammals themselves, in the dark.

Until now that is. The supposed shortlist for the role was subject to a classic Reddit leak and if it's to be believed it looks like Katherine Langford, Elle Fanning, and Emma Roberts are all in the running for the role.

A user that goes by the name of 'DCEUThrowaway89' leaked the deets and claimed: "a friend of mine was recently contacted by WB to work on concept art for the upcoming Batgirl film."

The user alleges that Warner Bros. want to make an announcement confirming who will be taking on the role at the San Diego Comic Con, which means you could only be waiting until the end of this month to find out for sure.

The list may not even be the real deal but it's difficult to bat an eyelid at it's significant lack of diversity, given that besides Indian actress Naomi Scott, and Bella Thorne, who has Latina Heritage all the actresses are white.

It's worth noting that the list hasn't been confirmed by the films director Joss Whedon, or anyone else affiliated with the production for that matter so it seems fans will just have to sit tight until an official announcement is made.
