Batman fans - REJOICE. Another big name has been added to the EPIC DC ON THE CW CROSSOVER EVENT coming this fall in "
Crisis On Infinite Earths", and it's none other than Kevin Conroy - AKA THE VOICE OF BATMAN in "Batman: The Animated Series", its numerous spin-offs, and other forms of Batman media in film, TV, and games!
Reported by
Comic Book.com, Conroy's casting comes in the heels of
Brandon Routh returning to the role of
Superman and
Cress Williams confirming that "
Black Lightning" will be part of the crossover.
His role hasn't been revealed yet... But he could be playing an aged
Bruce Wayne/ Batman ala
Batman Beyond (which just turned 20 years this year) or
The Dark Knight Returns (Update: HE IS PLAYING OLDER BRUCE according to
TV Line!). That would be AWESOME, and while the Batman from
Batwoman's world hasn't been named yet - one has to wonder if Conroy will wear the Cape and Cowl somehow. If
John Wesley Shipp could do 90's
Flash, the folks behind
Arrow and
The Flash may figure something out and surprise us yet.
The Arrowverse's "Crisis on Infinite Earths" will debut this December 2019 and the crossover will run through Arrow, The Flash, Supergirl, Batwoman, and Legends of Tomorrow until January 2020.
