We know Will Friedle's Batman Beyond will show up in Justice League: Crisis on Infinite Earths - Part 2, and IGN is reporting that he won't be the only animated Dark Knight who shows up for a cameo.
According to the site (via Toonado.com), the late Kevin Conroy's final Batman performance will be in Justice League: Crisis on Infinite Earths - Part 3 (instead of the divisive Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League).
It's said the upcoming threequel will also feature Mark Hamill's Joker, meaning we can look forward to a long-awaited reunion for the Batman: The Animated Series and Arkham trilogy stars.
The full cast list is undeniably impressive as it includes some big surprises, such as Katee Sackhoff's return as Poison Ivy and Ant-Man and The Wasp: Quantumania star Corey Stoll as the villainous Lex Luthor. This hasn't been officially announced yet, but the site says their intel comes from "a source close to the production."
Here are the actors who will reportedly join this trilogy during its final chapter:
- Kevin Conroy - Batman
- Mark Hamill - Joker
- Corey Stoll - Lex Luthor
- Brian Bloom - Adam Strange & Sidewinter
- Elysia Rotaru - Black Canary
- Armen Taylor - Jay Garrick
- Cynthia Kaye McWilliams - Dr. Beth Chapel/Cheetah
- Dean Winters - Captain Storm
- Jason Spisak - Blue Lantern Razer, Hayseed
- Brett Halton - Batlash & Captain Atom
- Ashly Burch - Nightshade, Queen Mera
- Katee Sackhoff - Poison Ivy
Hamill has made it clear that he doesn't want to play The Joker without Conroy's Batman, so we're guessing he was convinced to return for Justice League: Crisis on Infinite Earths - Part 3 because it meant he could share the screen with his old friend one final time.
"An endless army of Shadow Demons bent on the destruction of all reality swarms over our world and all parallel Earths," reads the synopsis for the upcoming Part Two. "The only thing opposing them is the mightiest team of metahumans ever assembled."
"But not even the combined power of Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Green Lantern and all their fellow superheroes can slow down the onslaught of this invincible horde. What mysterious force is driving them? And how do the long-buried secrets of the Monitor and Supergirl threaten to crush our last defense?"
Justice League: Crisis on Infinite Earths - Part Two is directed by Jeff Wamester from a script by Jim Krieg. Casting and voice direction is by Wes Gleason. The movie will be available on April 9 and on Blu-ray and 4K UHD on April 23.
