Batman: The Brave and The Bold is one of many animated Batman projects, and DC Animation projects, currently in the works.

Sources have confirmed for The World's Finest that fans can expect to see many different animated projects focusing on Batman over the next few years. Outside of Batman: The Brave and The Bold, premiering in November 2008, a new solo Batman direct-to-video animated feature is in the works, as well as a possible series based on the upcoming Lego Batman: The Videogame console release. Despite the recent cultural popularity of the comic book icon, it will likely be late-2008 at the earliest before any official announcements will be made on these assorted Batman projects.

Working off the high pre-release buzz, a computer-animated spin-off based on the upcoming Lego Batman: The Videogame console release is currently being developed as a single 20-minute animated program, with the possibility for future installments on a regular basis. Whether this will be a direct-to-video release or a televised or web-based premiere remain to be seen. A specific animation studio has yet to be confirmed and no further details are expected at this time.

Warner Bros. Animation, currently working on the initial 26-episode order of Batman: The Brave and Bold, is also working on the next slate of releases under the DC Universe Animated Original Movie banner. This includes wrapping post-production on Wonder Woman, slated for a February 2009 released, and continuing work on the next two in-production titles in the line, Green Lantern (working title) and Superman/Batman: Public Enemies (working title). Early pre-production work on a direct-to-video solo Batman feature has also begun, with no further details available at this time. The first official confirmation on these upcoming titles is expected either toward the end of 2008 or early 2009.

On a related note, Warner Bros. Animation also continues to work on an online Plastic Man animated series, with a premiere date that is expected to be announced soon.

Hmm...A Green Lantern movie...no doubt about Hal Jordon...unless they decide to do a Guy Gardner movie since Guy is the Lantern in Brave and the Bold.

A Plastic Man web series tho??? Should be fun.

I hope they don't do The Long Halloween with that Batman flick, I'm content reading it.

Batman/Superman should be good.

Green Lantern: Hopefully it's Rayner, or atleast a Sinestro Corps War adaption.

I wish they'd make Justice League: The Apocolypse of '09.

Whatever happened to Teen Titans: The Judas Contract?

Good luck on that ever coming out period. It's been put on the back burner cuz they think not enough people will like it.

Marv Wolfman, one of the screenplay writers for the direct-to-video Teen Titans: The Judas Contract animated feature, has confirmed the DC Universe Animated Movie is currently on hold.

Wolfman has confirmed the reports appearing online stating the movie is currently on hold because, according to Warner Home Video, there may not be enough of an audience for a Teen Titans: The Judas Contract animated feature to be successful. Teen Titans: The Judas Contract was originally scheduled to be the third DC Universe Animated Movie before Warner Home Video delayed it, opting to produce Batman: Gotham Knight and Wonder Woman direct-to-video animated features instead. While the Teen Titans: The Judas Contract is on hold, that does not mean the title is dead. It's just currently on hold as other projects are developed.

Wolfman continues, saying that fans should contact Warner Home Video to let them know of the demand for a Teen Titans: The Judas Contract animated feature. Below is the contact information to send your thoughts and concerns regarding the future of the Teen Titans: The Judas Contract direct-to-video animated feature.

Count me four. I have a Titans library at home, not too mention DC, as well. (I'm planning to get more shelf space for the comic books these next few weeks with my GUNDAMs occupying there space already 'coz the other cabinets are full with my other toy collectibles already.) Will sure love to see the Titans in live action aside from Bats and the others. Teen or not, "Robin" or "Nightwing", "Beast Boy" or "Changeling", any version is "yeah!". The Teen Titans cartoon is superb. Now, a live action, please.

Not me for sure.

Is there anything actually coming out of Warner Brothers Animation that ISN'T a DC comic based show? It's like they're just milking the DC stuff and shutting down everything else. Man... who runs Warner Bros animation? They need to be F-I-R-E-D and blacklisted from ever working at an entertainment company EVER AGAIN.

Loonatics? Coconut Fred? God! If you had the Plastic Man show instead of those losers, maybe people would have watched (I know... I know... I said they milk DC comics.... but that would have been much better than stealing Spongebob and raping the Looney Tunes to what a 50 year old got out of watching 5 minutes of Dragon Ball Z).

Am I the only one that thinks they're wasting their potential? I though Tom and Jerry tales was beyond amazing. Perhaps the only T&J project that actually had the spirit of the old cartoons since the 60's.

A bunch of people that are jumping on the "nerds are cool, so stuff nerds like is cool" bandwagon? Nahhh... I know who's running the animation department... someone who doesn't care what they're doing, is only there for the experiance (i.e. it's a temporary thing before they do something more profitable,) and only got the job because Daddy is a majority stockholder.

Apparently Warner Brothers has been going down the tubes recently, and the head honchos don't have a clue what they're doing. The CW network being clear evidence.

I just hope these DC comics productions are profitable enough for them to rebuild their animation department, and get a serious cartoon line up somewhere. But I'm absolutely doubtful.
