In May 2021, It was announced that a new Batman animated series developed by Reeves, Abrams and Timm will be officially titled Batman: Caped Crusader and would premiere on Cartoon Network and HBO Max.[1]

Writing[]

Reeves, Abrams and Timm described the series as "continuing the Batman mythology" with Warner Bros. Animation and Cartoon Network Studios president Sam Register saying it will follow the "groundbreaking legacy" of Timm's Batman: The Animated Series, aiming to re-shape the audience perception of the Batman mythologies in a similar vein to The Animated Series. All the executive producers called the series would be "thrilling, cinematic and evocative of Batman’s noir roots, while diving deeper into the psychology of these iconic characters".[2]
