Batman: Caped Crusader Cartoon Coming to HBOMax

[Frontier]

This entertainment registration website apparently holds the titles for all 10 episodes of season one, under the Relationships tab. Potential spoilers in the link.

Hmm...

spoilers:

Seems like the season finale is a Two-Face story? I'm curious what their take on Harvey will be like, especially since we've seen him transform into Two-Face over a dozen times. "Hunters" hunting Batman? "Nocturne" - Timm finally getting to do that Nocturna episode he always wanted to do? "Kiss of the Catwoman" sounds so pulpy in the best way possible.

Agreed with the Two-Face one. I know it was nine years ago, but we just got a Two-Face origin season finale in Beware the Batman. I hope they do something to differentiate it enough, at least. It would be a great idea to do the Nocturna story here. I know Timm was a strong proponent of it, and it would fit the show's alleged TV-PG rating. "Night Ride" feels like the Montoya-focused episode. A lot of the titles feel pretty pulpy. I dig it!

Not only just that but Long Halloween was also basically a Two-Face origin movie and it still feels kind of fresh.

Batman: Caped Crusader, which 15 months ago received a series order from HBO Max and Cartoon Network, is among six animated projects that are no longer being produced for HBO Max, sources confirm for TVLine.

TVLine hears that all six projects, mostly from Warner Bros. Animation, will continue production while they are shopped to other outlets.

This news of course comes amid numerous programming changes at an in-transition HBO Max, where some projects are being nixed and others that already stream on the service are being (not-so-)quietly removed.

Batman: Caped Crusader is an animated reimagining of the Batman mythology by way of Batman: The Animated Series‘ own Bruce Timm, with J.J. Abrams, Matt Reeves and Ed Brubaker also serving as EPs. Reeves of course directed The Batman, the big screen’s most recent live-action take on the Dark Knight (now played by Robert Pattinson), while Abrams — in addition to of course numerous Star Trek and Star Wars projects, plus TV’s Lost and Alias — is an EP on HBO Max’s still-in-development Justice League Dark series.

Yup. If Batman gets cancelled, no one is safe. At least it can be picked up by another company. I feel like Zaslav is going to cost the whole company more money than he promised to save them with his tactics.

The good thing is they said nothing about it not still airing on Cartoon Network just that it's not going to be ok hbomax

They wouldnt be shopping it around if it were just simply airing it on CN.

But I mean if they are selling the streaming rights. Couldn't it still air on CN with not issues since the show was also to be on air on CN also

I assume this means the superman show is toast too

BATMAN: CAPED CRUSADER animated series: The show is not cancelled, per sources, just not going to stream on HBO Max. The show is deep in production, nothing is paused. It will show up somewhere.

[Frontier]

...I'm in a state of shock right now.

[Knightsilver]

Zaslav's strategy seems to be "cancel every project so we don't have to spend any money". Which of course ignores the fact that they won't make any money that way either...

This is assuming some network will pick it up. If nobody picks it up, the show is cancelled.

(Batman is probably safe. Somebody like Netflix or Hulu will pick up a Batman show produced by Reeves, Abrams and Timm. I can't say the same thing about the others.)

Diedrich Bader is in the cast.

Apple TV + could pick it up. After all they have Ted Lasso ( which is made by Warner Bros Television).
