Considering that this is likely set in the DCEU than in the 2022 film's universe, her dad will likely be Simmons' Gordon.Well, I guess her dad is probably not going to be Jeffrey Wright.

Shouldn't they be trying to cast a little younger? The role is for Bat-GIRL.We’re down to two contenders for the role of Batgirl:
If it was me my choice will be Haley Lu Richardson.'Batgirl': Haley Lu Richardson & Leslie Grace Are Favorites to Star as Barbara Gordon for HBO Max - TheWrap
“Bad Boys for Life” filmmaking duo Adil El Arbi and Bilall Fallah are set to direct
Based on SuperGIRL I have a feeling they really don't care. Until someone comes along and complains. Guess we'll see if Sue Storm retains the Invisible Girl moniker. Though it has recently come to my attention Lee and Marvel were probably skirting a possible lawsuit cause Invisible Woman was already taken by a film in the 40's.
Well, in general a title can't be copyrighted (with some exceptions). And it's not likely that Sue Storm-Richards is going to be getting a solo film in any case. Invisible Woman should be fine as her code name.
The girl names were done in the 60's by everybody. Even women used it. "Diamonds are a girls best friend" in song by Ms. Marilyn Monroe. So I think with Gloria Steinem pushing the feminist movement of the 70's, that's why things changed up. Invisible GIRL became Invisible WOMAN and Marvel GIRL became a few things mostly Jean Grey.
Believe it or not, that would still put her in the category of girl back then.
Well, Melissa Benoist's Supergirl started out when she was 24, although they also had to justify why she went by "girl."
Do you mean Kathy Kane's Bat-Girl or Yvonne Craig? Yeah, Yvonne was 29 years old in 1966. But she was a very youthful 29. Still, I see your point.
I was talking Pre-Crisis Batgirl.
Okay, Babs was certainly in her mid-20s by the time she was elected to the U.S. Congress (as a Representative?). Pre-Crisis she was notably older than Dick Grayson, though that was later retconned.
I wonder if she'll get a musical number...
Thus making her the second Latina actress to play her as Rosario Dawson voiced her in The Lego Batman Movie.
Which is kind of funny when Supergirl is also now a Latina...
They haven't said so. Though it's always possible. However, HBOmax already has another The Batman series in Gotham PD.
I might be completely off-base, but I don't think the ethnicities line up for her to be able to play Jeffrey Wright's daughter.
