Batman is going to be even stranger in Caped Crusader.
Batman : Caped Crusader is coming soon, and it's going to be different than Batman Year One. Series creator Bruce Timm talked to Empire Magazine about the Prime Video animated series. Despite chronicling the early years of Bruce Wayne's career as Batman , the show isn't just redoing Batman : Year One. Timm is aiming for an even earlier period than Frank Miller and David Mazzucchelli's iconic take on the Dark Knight.
So, expect Batman to be really early in his journey when things kick off on Prime Video."I wanted to make him kind of weird, and spooky," Timm explains."If you're stuck in a room with Batman, whether you're Commissioner Gordon or Barbara Gordon or Renee Montoya, you don't feel comfortable.
"He weaponises Alfred," Timm says of this Bruce Wayne."He's not Batman's surrogate father anymore. He's a guy that's going to enable him to fight crime. That's how focused is. It's a weird take on him. But it's something I don't think we've seen before." All of this feels fresh along with the animated lineage of the popular 90s show as well.
Batman: Caped Crusader Has Been In The Works For A WhileFans have been waiting for Batman: Caped Crusader for years at this point. Clearly, the creators share this enthusiasm and are excited for the world to see what they've been working on."We are beyond excited to be working together to bring this character back, to tell engrossing new stories in Gotham City," Timm, Abrams, and Reeves wrote in a statement back when the series got announced.
