Ethan Hawke Is Batman within the Animated Batwheels

So Robert Pattinson is the brand new Batman in The Batman. Ben Affleck and Michael Keaton, who’ve beforehand performed Batman, are taking part in Batman once more in The Flash. And now, if there weren’t sufficient Bat-actors fluttering about, a brand new one is taking part in Batman in a reasonably distinctive method. It’s Sinister and Purge star Ethan Hawke and he’s received some very great toys.

Hawke will voice the Caped Crusader in an upcoming Warner Bros. animated sequence referred to as Batwheels. And, because the title suggests, it’s very totally different from every little thing else Batman on the market. This is a present geared toward preschool youngsters, set in a world the place Batman, Robin, and Batgirl exist, however there’s additionally a bunch referred to as the Batwheels, sentient autos who additionally struggle crime. Here’s a picture.

While Hawke is voicing Batman, AJ Hudson (The Good Place) is Robin/Duke Thomas, marking the primary on-screen portrayal of DC’s first Black Robin, and Leah Lewis (Nancy Drew) is Batgirl/Casandra Cain. As for the Batwheels, there’s the chief Bam (the Batmobile, voiced by Cobra Kai’s Jacob Bertrand), Bibi (the Batgirl Cycle, voiced by Madigan Kacmar), Redbird (Robin’s Sports Car, voiced by Jordan Reed), the Batwing (voiced by Lilimar), and Buff (the Bat Truck, voiced by Noah Bentley). In the world of the present they’ve been created by the Bat Computer (voiced by Kimberly D. Brooks) with restore assist from Moe (voiced by Mick Wingert).

So, principally, Batman’s Batcomputer creates these sentient crime preventing automobiles, however as a result of they’re born principally out of nowhere, they’ve received the minds of youngsters, so that they should determine out about life whereas preventing crime, independently of their mentors Batman, Robin, and Batgirl.

Honestly, whereas that appears a bit of complicated for a youngsters present, odds are it’s simply going to be a whole lot of enjoyable, goofy motion with these DC and DC-inspired characters. No phrase on when the present will debut or the place (because it’s a part of the “Cartoonito” preschool programming block from WarnerMedia Kids & Family, it’ll be both/or HBO Max or Cartoon Network), however we’ll ship up a car-formed Batsignal after we know.
