The age, identity and relationship status of the Batgirl character has fluctuated greatly throughout comics history: The original Golden Age Batgirl was a teenage love interest to Robin paired with an adult Batwoman who in turn romanced Bruce Wayne; while the Barbara Gordon incarnation was created in the 1960s for the Adam West-starring Batman TV series and was subsequently added to the comics continuity.
Among the most widely-criticized recent reimaginings: Bruce Wayne romancing a much younger Barbara Gordon in the direct-to-video animated The Killing Joke movie.
Now, new TV spots tease a similar shakeup taking place in the upcoming LEGO Batman movie.
But the first of two new TV spots reveals that Bruce Wayne (Will Arnett) has an agenda of his own: a crush on his would-be partner in crimefighting.
