Armie Hammer is Batgirl. Confirmed by Geoff Johns.
Trans Batgirl, very progressive move by WB and DC
Batgirl being taller than Batman will take some getting used to, but it's for the best I guess.
On this sidekick talk, since I'm guessing we're getting a seasoned Nightwing at some point in this universe, would people want to see this Batman have a young sidekick that works with him (that we maybe just haven't seen yet)? Especially since Chris O'Donnell was, I believe, in his 20s when he first played Robin in Batman Forever and already looked more like a young adult than a troubled kid.
Not talking like Chloe Moretz as Hit-Girl young, but someone who could pass as or look age-appropriate, similar to how Tom Holland looks younger than Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield did on their first outings as Peter Parker, even though Holland is already 20.
No, I never had desire to see Robin alongside Batman in live action. As much as I like Tim, one Robin that went on his own (Dick) and one that is dead/"resurrected" (Jason) is more than enough for this universe. I don't want to see Batfleck taking any more Robins. Most I'd take is Barbara, if she always had a role of Oracle and was not a costumed hero.
I'd say that this whole extended bat family has gone too far in the past two decades and as such don't even work well for the comics and the world Batman inhabits. Only time it was used well and actually worked for the story being told was in "War Games" arc. Other than that it is more of a drag than anything else.
I think tim deserves exposure
I wouldn't say he's underrated. For a long time, he was the most overrated Robin, and I say that as a fan of 90's/Early 00's Tim.

I'm the polar opposite. I think it's high time we get the proper Batman/Robin dynamic in live action. We have Dick whose grown and moved on and Jason who died and came back. Having him take a new Robin (Or theoretically Batgirl) completes the emotional recovery from Jason's death.
