*Batgirl (real name: Barbara Gordon) is the tritagonist of The LEGO Batman Movie.
Growing up as the daughter of Gotham City’s top cop has given Barbara Gordon a strong background in law and order. But as much as she respects her father’s experience and wisdom, she believes that the city would be better served by a more modern style of policing. Now that Jim Gordon is retiring, it’s time for a new kind of Commissioner Gordon to clean up the streets and she wants to work together with Batman to achieve this!
Although she’s new to being a Super Hero, Batgirl is every bit Batman’s equal as a crime-fighter. (Batman gets a secret crush on Barbra Gordon).
They may disagree about some rules and methods, but Barbara Gordon’s experience as a police officer and her desire to protect Gotham City make her the perfect partner when things get tough and villains are on the rise. She might even have a few things to teach the Dark Knight about busting bad guys!
Barbara Gordon was born to James Gordon and Mrs. Gordon.
Barbara Gordon became the new police commissioner and she brought up the idea of making the police work in partnership with Batman.
The same as Batman, Batgirl also has her own Batarang, different from Batman, her batarangs are yellow instead of black.
In this version of the film, she is a Hispanic girl. Batman has a crush on her, but she doesn't know. Her Batgirl costume is purple and gold, which is similar to the Batgirl costume from the live-action 60's TV series and the Batgirl costume from The Batman. This version is the police commissioner of Gotham City, like her older future self in Batman Beyond.*
