Earlier this week,
rumors of a Batman Beyond animated feature film being in development for a theatrical release began to circulate across the internet. The rumor was substantiated by some mysterious, leaked concept art for a Batman-related animated project featuring the WAG logo.
It looked pretty legitimate, but as it turns out, the rumor is apparently false. The Wrap's Umberto Gonzalez reported on Twitter that there is no
Batman Beyond film in development. According to the self-proclaimed "Ace Scooper," Warner Animation Group features, DC Films, and Warner Bros. Animation TV have all denied work on the project.
"Not true. We are not working on an animated Batman Beyond movie," was the exact quote he shared on Twitter.
Gonzalez posted a follow-up tweet to those skeptical of his initial report. Addressing those still clinging to the rumors, believing the studios are lying, Gonzalez wrote:
While we were skeptical of the rumor to begin with, the notion of an animated
Batman Beyond film doesn't seem like the worst idea, especially given the popularity of the character and the success of Sony Animation's
Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse. On a somewhat related note, Warner Bros.
did set a date this week for the release of Matt Reeves' The Batman.
