DC's new film "Batgirl" starts filming, with a Latina actress playing Barbara Gordon

DC's new film "Batgirl" has announced the start of filming, and a corner of the set has been exposed. Leslie Grace ("In the Heights") plays Batgirl Barbara Gordon, J.K. Simmons returns to play Commissioner Gordon, who is also Barbara's father, Brendan Fraser ("Tarzan", "The Mummy", "Journey to the Center of the Earth") plays the villain Firefly, and Jacob Scipio ("Bad Boys for Life", "Infernal Affairs") will also appear.

In the comics, Firefly's real name is Garfield Lynns. He was originally portrayed as a criminal who used various lighting effects and optical illusions to commit robberies, but was later reshaped into an antisocial pyromaniac with a compulsive disorder of arson.

He is an expert in pyrotechnics, with a comprehensive knowledge of flammable agents and explosives, equipped with a flamethrower, various incendiary devices, and a winged jetpack for high-speed flight using a fire-resistant combat suit.
