In case you didn’t know, there’s a new animated Batman film coming in just a few weeks and it’s a Christmas movie at that!
MERRY LITTLE BATMAN will premiere on Prime on December 8, 2023. Here’s a first look via ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY with a few new promo stills from the film…
MERRY LITTLE BATMAN is sorta like HOME ALONE in Gotham City. Here’s a short blurb from the film’s director, Mike Roth (REGULAR SHOW), about the movie…
Because it’s a Christmas story, telling it through the eyes of a child seemed apropos. Typically, Damian is a teenager who struggles with good and evil. While this was an interesting idea that was initially explored, we landed on a younger Damian. We decided to turn the clock back on Damian’s petulant nature to a time when he was more innocent and wide-eyed. The idea of a teeny, tiny, little kid in this huge city aspiring to become Batman like his dad was such a fun starting point. It gave us the heart and comedy we were looking for and opened the window to a Gotham City Christmas like we’ve never seen before.
Looks and sounds fun!
