TITANS: Gotham Villains Tony Zucco And The Maroni Crime Family Slated To Appear

Two separate reports on the ongoing production of the live-action Teen Titans TV show reveal that the Gotham City crime family the Maroni's and the Haly's Circus saboteur, Tony Zucco, are slated to appear.

Per Heroic Hollywood, Tony Zucco, Robin's very own Joe Chill, is slated to appear in the upcoming live-action Teen Titans TV show from DC Entertainment's unnamed streaming platform. As Joe Chill is the Gotham criminal who murdered Bruce Wayne's parents in Crime Alley, Zucco sabotaged The Fly Grayson's acrobat equipment prior to one of their famous "no safety net" performances.

In a separate report, Screen Rant has spotted some production photos which indicate that one or maybe all of the Maroni Crime Family will have a presence on the Titans show. The Maroni's have been around almost as long as Batman, playing key roles in several graphic novels, including The Long Halloween. Sal Maroni is the most famous member of the group as the individual responsible for scarring Harvey Dent's face, leading to his transformation into Two-Face.

DC Entertainment's streaming platform is slated to debut this Winter.  Its launch is expected to be anchored by Titans, and season 3 of Young Justice.  In addition, there's a Superman prequel, titled Metropolis, which is currently in pre-production and will be exclusive to the platform.
    
Tony Zucco made his most prominent appearance outside of comics in the two-part Batman:TAS episode, "Robin's Reckoning."

@Kevwebsz - I didn't realize this was a thing... [frick]...

I mean... if you want to do a movie about a city with secrets, an intrepid reporter (I'm assuming Perry White will feature heavily), and a bunch of unpowered drama... then do The Question, you maniacs!

You absolute... horrible people, you... I *ooohhh*. I'm like Three Stooges angry right now about this.

@Spock0Clock - Metropolis follows Lois Lane and Lex Luthor prior to Superman's arrival. In short, the flip side of what was happening in Metropolis while Supes was still in Smallville.

@Repian - Now that you mention it, yeah, they'll probably do that. Probably like Gotham did Jerome where he maybe-is or maybe-isn't supposed to be Superman.

This show has my hype levels through the roof.

They're going deep with a lot of mythology and characters.

One of the best parts of the animated series, which in turn is the best batman show/movie of all time. This show is what my ideal bat family is. future projects really need to take a notes from this show. from joker to two face to bruce to nightwing, you can't beat it
