Regardless ofBen Affleck’s schedule, DC fans are getting a solo Batman movie next year.The LEGO Batman Movie, a spin-off ofThe LEGO Movie, brings backWill Arnettas the voice of the Caped Crusader, alongside some new mini-figures shown in a batch of character posters.
Joining Team Bats are Barbara Gordon/Batgirl (voiced byRosario Dawson), Robin “Boy Wonder” (Michael Cera), and Bruce Wayne’s “Kick Butler” (get it?) Alfred Pennyworth (Ralph Fiennes). Their main adversary will be the Clown Prince of Gotham, Joker (Zach Galifianakis), and his Clown Princess, Harley Quinn (Captain America’s real-life girlfriend,Jenny Slate). You can check out the posters below the text.
But, as we’ve seen inprevious poster imagesandofficially tied-in LEGO sets, there are plenty more villains on the way. Penguin, Mr. Freeze, Killer Croc, Bane, Catwoman, Riddler, Poison Ivy, Clay Face, and Two-Face (voiced byTim Burton’s own Harvey Dent,Billy Dee Williams). Clearly, Batman is outnumbered, but after living in solitary self-reliance most of his life, he’ll have to learn to play well with others he’s to save Gotham City.
The LEGO Batman Movieis directed byChris McKay, whileThe LEGO MoviehelmersPhil LordandChris Millerreturn as producers.Seth Graham-Smith, who wasonce set to directthe DCEU’sThe Flashmovie, penned the script withChris McKennaandErik Sommers.
The film is set to open in theaters on February 10. See the new character posters below.
Here’s the official description:
In the irreverent spirit of fun that made “The LEGO® Movie” a worldwide phenomenon, the self-described leading man of that ensemble - LEGO Batman – stars in his own big-screen adventure. But there are big changes brewing in Gotham, and if he wants to save the city from The Joker’s hostile takeover, Batman may have to drop the lone vigilante thing, try to work with others and maybe, just maybe, learn to lighten up.
