What Could Be: A BATMAN BEYOND Animated Film
5 months ago Patrick Harpin walked into Warner Bros. Pictures / DC Comics and pitched a Batman Beyond Animated Feature.
Before we pitched, they warned us "there is absolutely no way we can do a Beyond movie", but they loved our enthusiasm. We pitched the outline for the entire film, and what started as a “never” turned into a “maybe”.
In the time since, we've been pitching our way up the company hoping to get to James Gunn. But for now, here's a taste of what we've been cooking.
This tweet was posted earlier today, and has — subsequently — been viewed 2 million times during a time period where Twitter could not be more irrelevant.
I’ll back up the pitch art as shared, available in the gallery below (since who knows if Twitter will stay up), but I have to admit — since I’ve seen it, I haven’t been able to shake it.
A Spider-Verse-esq Batman Beyond movie would be incredible to see, and also give the theatrical version of the DC Comics Universe a much needed shot in the arm.
Mr. Gunn, are you listening?
