CBR is reporting that Batman: Year One - the adaptation of the classic graphic novel by Frank Miller - will officially hit stores on October 18th, later this year (which, coincidentally, is the same day that the Arkham City game releases). Eliza Dushku, who voices Ms. Kyle in the film, will reprise the role in the Catwoman short, which will also feature Joe MiGaggio voicing 'Rough Cut'. Here are the details...

Catwoman will headline her own short film attached to Warner Bros’ Animation upcoming direct-to- adaptation of the influential Batman: Year One, TV Guide reveals. The website also offers a first look at the character — albeit small and severely cropped.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer alum Eliza Dushku, who provides the voice of Selina Kyle in Batman: Year One, will reprise the role in the short, which pits Catwoman against crime boss Rough Cut (voiced by Futurama‘s Joe DiMaggio) “in a breathless and brutal 15-minute chase through Gotham City tracking down a mysterious cargo shipment.” Catwoman was written by Paul Dini and helmed by Year One co-director Lauren Montgomery.

Based on the acclaimed 1987 storyline by Frank Miller and David Mazzucchelli, Batman: Year One also stars Ben McKenzie (The O.C., Southland) as a young Bruce Wayne, Bryan Cranston (Breaking Bad) as James Gordon, Katee Sackhoff (Battlestar Galactica) as Sarah Essen, and Alex Rocco (The Godfather) as Carmine Falcone.

The latest entry in the DC Universe Animated Original Movies series will be released on Oct. 18 for , Blu-ray, On Demand and digital download.
