The movie is still in production/post, but I was told we're looking at a release in the last quarter of 2016. From what i've been told by people involved, it sounds incredibly fun!

As soon as there is a date/more info that can be talked about publicly/officially, this will be the place to find it!

I hear straight to DVD . It should be out this year but WB are tight lipped about it.
They should really turn this into a series while Adam and Burt are still with us.

Wonder if all the DC or comic book writers who wished or wanted to do a Batman 66 story got their chance to do so?

Any new news?

I'm wondering if there will be a trailer for it, on the The Killing Joke DVD? But that may not be a family friendly story.

Adam is still in good voice for almost 88, but I hope they got his tracks down with possibly some studio work while they still can. Jonathan Frid did a recording for a Dark Shadows audio drama not long before he passed away, and his voice was obviously years older than the character he was doing. But if this thing has a decent budget they can tighten West & Ward's voices up a little bit. Like they do to make it sound like Kanye can actually sing.

If we are to see the animated movie before year's end, perhaps an announcement would be made at SDCC later in the month.

Looked at the schedule at SDCC, didn't see anything about Adam and Ward showing up, or the animated movie? Did anyone else?

Well, if Burt said that, we gotta believe him ;)

Must be a very, very hush hush project as I can't even find a place holder for it on IMDB. Typed in 2016 Batman and a boat load of titles due out, but nothing listed for our title. Time will tell. I can't wait! I hope we get some retro sounding music for it. I don't want to put too much expectation into the music beyond the original theme, so all I can say is, I doubt the original villain cues (themes) will be used.
Music. BAT! Music.

Burt Ward gave a hint that the plot would be taking their characters, and putting them, in modern times.

I wonder if Mr Freeze put Gotham on ice for a few decades and everybody has finally thawed out to emerge in the present day...?
