Seriously? This rumor ain't true, is it? Gossip-monger site, Hollyscoop has a story from an insider stating that Miley Cyrus is somehow, in some way, up for the role of Batgirl in the next Batman flick. Say wha?? The buzz is that she showed up on the lot in a full Batgirl outfit, which immediately reminds me of Sean Young and her infamous, hilarious, disturbing attempts to win the role of Catwoman in Batman Returns.
Clearly, this can't be true. First of all, there isn't even a Robin. So why in the world would there be casting for Batgirl? Second, Christopher Nolan is busy working on other projects, so he's not even casting or writing or anything right now. And third, it's an awful idea that de-legitimizes the story. There's no need for any of the "child" characters to be included in the franchise at this point if ever, because I think it changes the entire tone. Don't read too much into this story, but it's funny to contemplate.
