Breaking News

With Warner Bros. officially starting production on their own Birds of Prey movie (really a Harley Quinn-led Suicide Squad spin-off), Last Resort Films has shelved their version of the project which was set to star Hailee Steinfeld (Huntress, Bumblebee), Vanessa Kirby (Mission: Impossible - Fallout, Green Arrow 2: Hunters), Madelaine Petsch ("Riverdale", Batman: Gotham Knight) and Rose Leslie ("Game of Thrones", Reality) in the roles of Helena Bertinelli/Huntress, Dinah Lance/Black Canary, Barbara Gordon/Batgirl and Pamela Isley/Poison Ivy, respectively. Michelle MacLaren (Huntress) was set to direct from a script by APJ (Huntress, Plastic Man). With the cancellation of the project, the studio will work with the writer to try to include the characters into other some of their other future DC Comics Universe films. Vanessa Kirby will continue to appear in the Green Arrow series as Black Canary, while Petsch and Leslie will most likely appear in future Batman films. That leaves the question of when we will get to see Steinfeld as the Huntress again. Rumor has it that the studio is leaning towards having her as the female lead in a possible future Teen Titans film, but they are reportedly not sure about a sequel to Huntress since it has been by far the lowest grossing DC Comics Universe entry from the studio.
