‘Son of Batman’ sequel gets new voice cast

Warner Bros. Home Entertainment announced the cast and some details about the DC Universe original movie, Batman vs. Robin, which is the upcoming animated feature film sequel to Son of Batman.

Jeremy Sisto, who was recently part of Suburgatory, will voice Talon. Jason O’Mara (Batman), Stuart Allen (Robin/Damian Wayne), Sean Maher (Nightwing) and David McCallum (Alfred) all of them are going to return from 2014’s Son of Batman.

Other newcomers include Grey Griffin (formerly Delisle), who recently voiced Lego versions of both Wonder Woman and Lois Lane, will appear as a character named Samantha, while Musical comedy icon Weird Al Yankovic will play The Dollmaker, a Batman villain with various iterations, including versions that have appeared recently on both Arrow and Gotham.

 

Batman vs. Robin is based in part on Night of the Owls, the 2012 Batman storyline by Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo starring the Court of Owls organization. It’s the next DC-based animated feature slated for release, following the Aquaman-centric Justice League: Throne of Atlantis, which is out now as a digital release and will debut on DVD and Blu-ray on 27 January.

The cast will also include Robin Atkin Downes (Grandmaster) of Superman vs. the Elite and Peter Onorati (Draco). Veteran Batman voice actor Kevin Conroy will guest star as Thomas Wayne, Batman’s father.

Jay Oliva, the director of five previous DC Animation features, will be helming the project from a script by Justice League 3000 co-writer J.M. DeMatteis.
