She started her career by releasing an independent music album, and there has been no looking back for her ever since. Due to her outstanding contribution to the music industry, she was nominated thrice for the Latin Grammy awards. She has also acted in some television series and movies.

Leslie Grace is more than just a singer and actress; she’s got a heart of gold and uses her platform to help aspiring creatives reach their full potential. Leslie Grace talked about working on the forthcoming Batgirl feature during an interview.

The 27-year-old actress spoke about various elements of the project’s production and teased work on a potential follow-up movie.

The forthcoming DC Comics-based film has been in development for several years, and it is currently set to be released to the public later this year.

Grace began by speaking about the first time she put on the superheroine’s costume and saw herself in a mirror.

‘I think that was the first real moment where I was like, “Oh, wow, we’re here. I’m doing this. Like, I am really Batgirl.” It’s still hard for me to say that. But, yeah, it was a surreal experience,’ she said.

The In The Heights star then spoke about her character and how she had to push herself to portray her effectively. 

‘She definitely exceeds what I thought. I had to summon up some things in me that I didn’t even know were there,’ she said.

Grace discussed her time working with her castmates and noted that one, in particular, was especially fun to be around. 

‘It was an incredible learning experience to be on set with also action veterans like Brendan Fraser, and soak up it all up. It was so hard because he’s our villain and I’m not supposed to like but he’s such a huge teddy bear,‘ she said.

However, the performer did point out that playing Batgirl often left her physically exhausted.

She recalled: ‘There were a lot of long days, but it was so worth it. But, oh my gosh, never in my life have I’ve been so sore or depleted. There were some days I would get home and I would think, “Do I want to eat or am I just going to fall asleep?”‘

Grace then talked about a potential sequel to the feature, and she noted that the project’s producers wanted to see how their first effort played out with audiences.

‘We got to see this first one first. But there’s definitely some talks about what it could be. I’ve seen some of what we’ve shot, obviously in the playback and stuff like that, and it’s insane,’ she said.

However, the performer did state that the movie’s team was measuring their options for the future. 

‘We’ve already been talking about where do we take this from here because there’s so much that happens in this film,‘ she stated.

Development on Batgirl initially began in 2017, when Joss Whedon was tapped to helm the project.

The producer left the movie’s team the following year, and Christina Hodson signed on to pen its screenplay that April.
