Poster Art for Bruce Timm’s BATMAN: CAPED CRUSADER — GeekTyrant


Here’s new poster art for Bruce Timm’s upcoming animated series Batman: Caped Crusader. It features Batman along with several of the villains that he will be facing off with.

The description for the series reads: “Welcome to Gotham City, where the corrupt outnumber the good, criminals run rampant and law-abiding citizens live in a constant state of fear.

“Forged in the fire of tragedy, wealthy socialite Bruce Wayne becomes something both more and less than human—the BATMAN. His one-man crusade for justice attracts unexpected allies within the GCPD and City Hall, but his heroic actions spawn deadly, unforeseen ramifications.”

The show will capture what Timm was originally looking to do with the original animated series, saying, “It kind of goes back to the original principles of the show that we originally came up with in the early ’90s.

“There were certain limitations on what we could do in terms of adult content; in terms of violence and adult themes.” He went on to say, “My idea is basically to say, ‘OK, it’s 1990 again, I get to do what I want to do this time, and I got JJ and Matt backing me up.”

The cast includes Hamish Linklater (Midnight Mass) as Batman, Christina Ricci as Selina Kyle / Catwoman, Jamie Chung is Dr. Harleen Quinzel / Harley Quinn, and former Batman voice actor Diedrich Bader is set to play Harvey Dent / Two-Face.

Other cast members include Minnie Driver, Eric Morgan Stuart, Michelle C. Bonilla, Krystal Joy Brown, John DiMaggio, McKenna Grace, Jason Watkins, Paul Scheer, Reid Scott, Gary Anthony Williams, Dan Donohue, David Krumholtz, Haley Joel Osment, and Toby Stephens.

This animated series has been in development for some time with Timm, J.J. Abrams, Matt Reeves, and comic writer Ed Brubaker leading the charge.

The poster comes ahead of Caped Crusader‘s big Comic-Con panel which will include a screening on Saturday, July 27th. Executive producer Matt Reeves and series stars Hamish Linklater, Jamie Chung, and Minnie Driver will be in attendance.

Batman: Caped Crusader premieres this August 1 on Prime Video.
