Prime Video has released the first trailer for the upcoming DC animated holiday special Merry Little Batman, and it’s…something!
This is clearly going to be a very different Batman movie, and just not because of the playful and unique animation style. This is clearly meant to be a fun, lighthearted adventure for young Damian Wayne. Check out the trailer below to see for yourself the hijinx that will be coming soon.
Synopsis.
This Christmas, Damian Wayne wants to be a Super Hero like his dad—the one and only Batman. When Damian is left home alone while Batman takes on Gotham’s worst Super-Villains on Christmas Eve, he stumbles upon a villainous plot to steal Christmas and leaps at the chance to save the day. Produced by Warner Bros. Animation and based on characters from DC, Merry Little Batman features the voices of Yonas Kibreab, Luke Wilson, James Cromwell, and David Hornsby, and is directed by Mike Roth (Regular Show) from a screenplay by Morgan Evans (Teen Titans Go!) and Jase Ricci (Batman: The Doom That Came to Gotham). Roth also serves as executive producer, alongside Sam Register (Looney Tunes Cartoons).
Between this and Urkel Saves Santa: The Movie! people who enjoy silly animated specials are going to be eating good this holiday season.
Merry Little Batman arrives on December 8 on Prime Video.
