Bruce Timm, JJ Abrams, and Matt Reeves are making a new Batman cartoon for HBOMax titled Batman: Caped Crusader.



The first image from Batman: Caped Crusader is certainly reminiscent of Batman: The Animated Series, showing a brooding Batman looming over Gotham City. Tom Ascheim, the President of Warner Bros. Global Kids, Young Adults and Classics, says “Batman: Caped Crusader will entertain first time and die-hard fans alike and, with such an impressive creative team in place, we know we have another future Batman classic in the making.

Abrams, Reeves, and Timm also said about the new series: “We are beyond excited to be working together to bring this character back, to tell engrossing new stories in Gotham City. The series will be thrilling, cinematic and evocative of Batman’s noir roots, while diving deeper into the psychology of these iconic characters. We cannot wait to share this new world.”
