Depends on how she's written.
If they go full Batgirl she has to skew young. Young people are stupid and impulsive when it comes to making decisions. They're also oblivious to their own mortality. She'd have to start off as a pain in Batman's ass who's more likely to get killed than solve a crime. Eventually he gets tired of saving her crazy ass over and over and decides to train her so that at least she isn't a liability.
If they go for an older Barbara she has to be Oracle. An adult, crazy ass fangirl dressing up as a Bat is cringe inducing.
Barbara died during the post apocalyptic scene, she dead.
Batman cannot turn back time, like lame ass supes.
They should scrap robin and any batgirl and go with " Blue Jay". Anyone? Anyone?
Emma Stone, all day long....

I've always wanted Kristen Stewart for Barbara, not only because she has evolved into a terrific actress, but because she has worn Batman logo t-shirts in public- which is so great- and even in film in the great 'Clouds of Sils Maria'.
But yeah, there seems to be a lot of fan momentum for Emma Stone, and if that were to happen there's no doubt she would do what she always does- a wonderful job.
Good from what I've seen in the past few years. Post twilight. Great is stretching it.
If we're going with any of these petite actresses, then I'd hope it's just for Oracle. Cause I sure as hell don't buy any one of these girls lasting a week out in the field.
What an inane comparison. Bruce Lee was in phenomenal shape and looked it. It's very possible a svelte actress can pull off the martial arts (see Zhang Ziyi), but those are rare instances. And even then I only really bought it in highly stylized fantasy pics.And yet Bruce Lee was tiny, but was considered a legitimate threat by the best fighters and martial artists of his time.
