Thanks to the new images that have emerged from the set of Batgirl, whose filming process is currently underway, we can finally take a first look at the costume of Firefly, the announced villain of the movie who will have the face of Brendan Fraser.
The images - which you can see below thanks to insiders in the crew - show a decidedly accurate and faithful reconstruction of the comic counterpart.
Firefly was created by France Herron and Dick Sprang and first appeared in 1952 in Detective Comics #184. The identity of Firefly was carried first by Garfield Lynns and later by Ted Carson. In both incarnations, he is a pyromaniac who uses a flight suit with a built-in flamethrower to commit his crimes. However, at the moment, it is not yet known whether the role played by Brendan Fraser will correspond to one of the two classic versions of this character.
At the moment no details on the plot of the film have yet emerged, but it has already been suggested that the movie will draw heavily from Batgirl: Year One, a comic miniseries created by Scott Beatty, Chuck Dixon, Marcos Martin and Alvaro Lopez in 2003.
The release of the film will take place exclusively on HBO Max's streaming platform at the end of 2022.
