In the Heights star Leslie Grace has recently been cast as the titular heroine in Batgirl. Now, Leslie has shared new behind-the-scenes footage of her extensive training for the upcoming HBO Max project.
As many may already know, Batgirl is known within the DC Universe as a formidable opponent in the arena of battle. So, it’s of utmost importance that Leslie is superhero-ready for filming.
Mere days ago, Leslie uploaded a video onto Instagram documenting her transformation, showcasing a workout that focused on a variety of muscle groups to get the ultimate heroine physique.
Ever the jokester, the fun loving actress showcased her practicing boxing while everyone else is eating – with the clip caption questioning when she would get her superpowers.
“soooo when do the superpowers kick in? 👀 #batgirl #pennysfromheaven” queeried Leslie.
Batgirl is expected to be released in 2022 on HBO Max, with movie legend Brendan Fraser starring as Batgirl’s nemesis Firefly.
