Batman: Caped Crusader Will Be More Batman: The Animated Series15967

Batman: Caped Crusader, an animated series based on the iconic character, was announced in May 2021 and now some of its creative talent has spilled some details on the tonal direction of the show. Bruce Timm, known for co-creating Batman: The Animated Series, even said it will be “more ‘Batman: The Animated Series than Batman: The Animated Series.”

Among the new DC animation lineup, this is the one that I am looking most forward too. I bought the whole DVD set, so I can watch with my kids. Sounds grittier, so do you think this will be PG-13 or even R?

The apple sauce and pudding were the best part... Bronte private msg quote post Address this user
I sincerely doubt it will be R. That would eliminate a huge amount of folks that could be potential audience.

I'm thinking they will follow suit with original series. That series resonated across a huge swath of age brackets. I for one hope that it's just a slight update of the original formula. That worked incredibly well for myself and what appears to be a ton of other folks.

@jake I agree with @Bronte, unlikely it will be R-rated for the reasons he stated. But it will be dark and 1940s noir inspired. In my opinion, Batman TAS is one of the best cartoons ever made so if Caped Crusader is taking cues from it and Bruce Timm is involved.. it'll be a winner.

@Bronte @GAC I figured. DC needs mass appeal, but it was when Timm mentioned more BAS than BAS, I was thinking of Timm’s more mature art

No Justice League or any other Super Hero will exist in this series, hoping that means no Robin or Bat-Family as well.

I am surprised that they didn't bring Paul Dini in to collaborate this time. Timm and Dini have a long history of working together.
