Batman: Caped Crusader is ready to exact some bat-themed justice as Prime Video has released the official trailer for the highly anticipated new animated series from Warner Bros. Animation, Bad Robot Productions, and 6th & Idaho.
Check out the first footage for yourself!
The official synopsis for Batman: Caped Crusader reads as follows:
Welcome to Gotham City, where the corrupt outnumber the good, criminals run rampant and law-abiding citizens live in a constant state of fear. Forged in the fire of tragedy, wealthy socialite Bruce Wayne becomes something both more and less than human—the BATMAN. His one-man crusade attracts unexpected allies within the GCPD and City Hall, but his heroic actions spawn deadly, unforeseen ramifications.
