Oh, my lord, the end is finally here.
The most beloved couple of all time has finally parted way and that too in such a heartbreaking manner.
No, I am not talking of any big-shot Bollywood or Hollywood couple, instead, I am talking about Joss Whedon and Marvel, considering the latest news, they have definitely gone their own way.
And have to say, Whedon doesn’t really do anything half-assed, when he goes, he goes big, and the same happened here.
Joss Whedon has joined the DC Comics universe with him directing the first ever ‘Batgirl’ origin movie.
Yes, from Marvel to DC, Joss Whedon has really gone to the other side, but the point of the matter is now about the new relationship status of DC and Whedon.
But the actual news to take away from this is that finally, we will have a Batgirl movie and that too by none other than the King of comics, Mr Whedon himself.
Marvel, See What You Did There?
While they have no dearth of origin movies that are coming up, except Captain Marvel, which is a long time away, there have not exactly been a lot of female superhero movies made.
However, DC seems to have picked up on this craze and seems to be giving exactly what the audience is asking for.
Starting with Wonder Woman, that will be releasing this year in June, now the news of a new Batgirl movie is further cause for celebration when it comes to this highly neglected area of superheroes.

I feel that Marvel has really missed the ball in this aspect with not taking up female superhero origin movies in time.
They could really have been pioneers in this area and had that edge over DC and all at a time when most of such movies are with a male lead.
But DC on the other hand seems to be quite smart and has already started to include female lead superhero movies, which gives them an edge over Marvel. Le sigh.
But Whedon…. Um, Sure?!
