Alicia Silverstone was brought on to play Batgirl in hopes of bringing in young women to see the film in theaters. She was a teenager at the time and was the victim of body shaming on the set and in public thanks to the cruel joke of storyboard editor Timothy Burgard. At the time it was rumored that the young actress was having trouble fitting into the tiny Batgirl costume. Burgard says this: "I heard she was in the costume department being cinched into a corset to fit into what they were going to try to do the costume. So I did a cartoon of what I thought she looked like... I did it as a movie poster, Clueless 2: The Casting of Batgirl. It was a private joke, just the guys in the art department." The joke drawing got out, but Burgard got to keep his job because he "luckily" never signed it.
