Brendan Fraser is back! Brendan has been busy lately with some new projects. He is already starring in the television series Doom Patrol and has now been cast as the villain in the new Batgirl film.

He will play Firefly. As fans of the DC Universe already know, Firefly is a pyromaniac. At first, the character was a criminal who started fires and got more violent and dark as the stories went on. In the new Batgirl film, Leslie Grace will play Batgirl.

Firefly, also known as Garfield Lynns, uses a fireproof flight suit to set fires everywhere. Sometimes he even has a superheated plasma sword. Other characters confirmed to have roles in Batgirl are Jacob Scipio and J.K. Simmons. J.K. will play Commissioner Gordon once again, making the film a part of Zack Snyder’s film universe.
