I’m excited about this one!

Jensen Ackles (Dean from Supernatural) is the Red Hood.

Check out the video of Jensen :

Lan Pitts – I have posted the behind the scenes featurette on my blog: http://www.comicsaredead.com

It is along the right margin in two parts.

I’m with Evil… If they can’t, or WON’T get Kevin Conroy for Batman every time, what’s the point? Bruce Greenwood is apparently Bats this time? He’s great, but Conroy is the only animated Batman for me.

But even then it may not matter… I rented Public Enemies from my local library and it was just as bad as the comic was. I have no interest in the rebirth of Jason Fucking Todd, so I’ll pass.

One problem I see, Dick was the one who put the sticks in Amazo’s ears in the comic. It looks like Batman does in the movie

I wonder if Dick will have the leg brace like in the comics or if it will be ignored since they are not doing a movie on War Games (which would make a good movie…)

The selling point on this was Jason Isaacs as Ra’s. C’mon!

There’s a behind the scenes featurette somewhere online where it showed Jensen Ackles as the Red Hood, NPH as Nightwing, etc.

I’m excited for this.

This might be a SPOILER but if you understand then you likely know the story anyway.
I figure they’ll probably go for the Lazarus Pit. It’s a lot neater without going into Crisis Territory, and it does result in madness.

This was the story that brought me back to the Bat titles, so I’m overjoyed to see this as a DVD. The story looks to be pretty close and I’m really looking forward to this!

Outside of being listed as part of the cast list on IMDB and having an interview with NPH for the preview for this movie on the Crisis of Two Worlds movie extras, you didn’t see him in the trailer?

Superboy Prime’s “reality punch” factors into the origin of the Red Hood. I can’t see him being left in the story.

Umm… Nightwing is in the trailer. Anyway I am very happy that they didn’t cut Amazo. I suspected they would cut him from the movie to appease fanboys and their “BATMAN IS GRITTY, HE ONLY FIGHTS THUGS!” I hope they keep Freeze and all the other characters from the story in the movie also. I just started reading the story a week ago and its really good.

I love how on that cover the red Bat Symbol is actually the Joker’s lips if you consider the Red Hood to be the outline of the Joker’s head. Very cool dichotomy tying the character’s histories all together.

Jerry O’Connell voiced Nightwing in THE BATMAN in a future episode where Robin was all grown up and Mr. Freeze had frozen the world.

The cover to the DVD is here: http://comicsaredead.yolasite.com/reviews-news/red-hood-dvd-art-released-and-reveals-surprise-

A fairly detailed summary of the film is here:

Also, on the left margin of comicsaredead.com we have a “making of the red hood” two parter with interviews from Winnick and the others involved.

Thanks for the update KACH!
NPH is even better than O’Connell.

To bad they can’t keep the best voices for these characters. That’s the main thing that keeps me from getting these right away.

Nightwing is voiced by NPH, not Jerry O’Connell. Batman is voiced by the dude who played Captain Pike in the recent Star Trek film, & Jason is voiced by 1 of the guys from the Supernatural TV Show.

I’ve really enjoyed all the DC Animated films so far, but this one looks like it may be the best. I talked to Winick for a bit at WonderCon & he is really excited about this. he pitched it to WB Premiere himself. He said it’s much darker than the other stuff they have put out.

Jerry O’Connel I heard is the voice of Nightwing.
It should be pretty awesome.

Amazon and Nightwing are in the movie, it is a pretty faithful adaptation of Under the Hood, and both were written by Judd Winick (only one ‘n’ in his name). Nightwing is voiced by none other than Neil Patrick Harris, who I think is a great choice for Dick Grayson’s voice.

If you pause the trailer during the explosion in the conference room, you can see Nightwing and Batman.

I thought I also glimpsed Ras Al’Ghul, so I’m guessing the techno-ninjas are his minions.

I believe the Amazo robot was part of Winnick’s storyline involving a crime war and an Amazo robot was being used as a weapon.

Nightwing appears in the trailer @ the 39 second mark.
