DCEU: Ranking The Batgirl Actress Shortlist From Worst To Best

1. Jane Levy

Known For: Evil Dead (2013), Don't Breathe, Suburgatory.

At 27 years, Jane Levy is the oldest actress on this list, but that's not to say she's 'too old' to play Batgirl.

In fact, it's quite the opposite; she's the perfect age. Her age means that she's the most experienced of the bunch, and that's reflected in her filmography, which spans a multitude of genres, like horror, comedy and family-friendly movies.

Also, remember that Ben Affleck's Batman is in his late forties; having a thirty-year old Batgirl would make a lot of sense, and compared to some of the other actresses on this list - who are as young as 19 - Levy seems the most age-appropriate choice.

Plus, her characters are always driven, tough-as-nails and easy to root for. She was the only one who survived Evil Dead, and her character took out the demon with a chainsaw, no less. Levy has led a variety of projects but hasn't quite broken out yet, and Batgirl would be the perfect vehicle to propel her career to the next level.

Chances Of Her Being Cast: Levy has a film and a TV series in pre-production, so sadly, her schedule isn't as clear as it may need to be.

Fortunately, the TV series is only ten episodes, and the film - Four Seasons - is a small comedy, so neither will take a ton of time to shoot.

However, her proven talent and experience in a variety of genres sets her head and shoulders above most of these other actresses, and she's still young enough that she could play Batgirl for several movies, into the 2020s and beyond, with ease. 8/10

Danny has been with WhatCulture for over ten years, and is currently Doctor Who Editor and WhoCulture Channel Manager, overseeing all of WhatCulture's Whoniverse coverage. In 2022, he took charge of WhoCulture and has grown it into the biggest Doctor Who channel on YouTube, and one of the biggest Doctor Who communities on the web full-stop. He has been writing and video editing since his early teens, and first got a taste for content creation after making his own Doctor Who trailers, off the back of a burning obsession with the Matt Smith era of the show. Like many his age, he first got into Doctor Who with the 2005 revival, but has since gone back and fallen in love with the classic years too. If you need someone to recite every Doctor Who episode in order, or to give you a random factoid about the making of Gridlock, Danny is the person to ask!
