Glasgow City Council claims Batgirl was 'economic benefit' for city despite film being shelved

Glasgow City Council has claimed the city saw "significant economic benefit" from the filming of Batgirl, despite the movie being scrapped by Warner Brothers.

The council agreed to give Warner Bros £150,000 to shoot the entire production in the city - 20 times more council funding than any other production in the last five years.

But the studio decided to shelve the production completely and it will no longer appear in theatres or on streaming service HBO Max, despite $70 million being spent on the project.
