NYCC METAVERSE: SPEAKING WITH THE BAT FAMILY – BEHIND THE SCENES OF ‘DC SHOWCASE SHORTS COLLECTION: BATMAN: DEATH IN THE FAMILY” - FORCES OF GEEK
Saturday at Metaverse, the combined effort of New York Comic Con and London’s MCM Comic Con to conduct virtually conventions this year, the first interactive animated DC movie Batman: Death in the Family was previewed for this week’s October 13th Blu-Ray and Digital release.
The fate of Jason Todd is decided with your remote control! No pesky 1-(900) numbers this time. Are there still 1-(900) numbers? The Batman: Death in the Family panel came in the form of two Zoom meeting rooms, the later of which was exclusive to members of the press. I swiped right on Jason Todd for both and it was a match, here is what we learned!
Bruce Greenwood reprises his Batman role opposite Vincent Martella’s Jason Todd. The interactive movie is a sequel/prequel to the 2010 film, Batman: Under the Red Hood as confirmed by producer, writer and director Brandon Vietti, of Young Justice fame. DC Daily‘s Tiffany Smith moderated the public panel. The voice of Talia Al’Ghul, Zehra Zehra Fazal gave some insight to playing her controversial character.
MODERATOR: For Bruce and Vincent: What is it like for you revisiting these characters?
BRUCE GREENWOOD: The sensibilities were a little bit different and I toyed with the voice the for the first time. The second time I still started searching for what I think is going to be in the real pocket.
