It's rumor no more. The voice cast for Batman: The Dark Knight Returns has been revealed courtesy of The Hollywood Reporter. It is a two part animated film, with the first part to be released on October 23rd. The second part will be released early 2013.
Peter Weller (of Robocop Fame) will be voicing Bruce Wayne/Batman.
Ariel Winter (of Modern Family fame) will be voicing Carrie Kelly/Robin.
Wade Williams (Prison Break) as Harvey Dent/Two-Face
and David Selby in an unspecified role.
Spoiler Show
As expected, I've already seen the usual " DC why y u no cast Kevin Conroy and Mark Hamill as Batman and the Joker?". Some people have been taken aback by Robocop voicing Bruce Wayne. I've personally never seen any of the above movies or TV shows but I think everyone so far is a good fit for their roles.
If anything, I think Ariel Winter will need yo be somewhat serious in her role as Robin. I know both she and Carrie are 13, but the last thing her voice needs to be like is "omg look at those shoes! They are sooo cuuuute~"
Thoughts? Opinions?
Oh for those who don't know:
"The Dark Knight Returns tells the story of a 55-year-old Bruce Wayne who comes out of retirement to fight crime, only to face opposition from the Gotham City police force and the United States government."
