DC Studios has announced a new animated movie project that will focus on Robin's origin story, and fans are over the moon with the news.
Since the studio's inception in late 2022, we've been hearing reports and announcements regarding the projects that they are currently working on across film, TV, and animation.
Fans are still waiting for more news regarding their plans for some of the fan-favorite DC characters. Now, one of its iconic heroes is set to star in their own animated solo project.
Dynamic Duo Animated Movie Starring Robin in the Works at DC Studios
It was recently confirmed that DC Studios and Warner Bros. Animation are working on a new animated movie called Dynamic Duo.
The film will focus on the origin stories of the Dick Grayson and Jason Todd versions of Robin. James Gunn, Peter Safran, and The Batman director Matt Reeves are involved as producers.
Despite Reeves' involvement, the project will not have any connection to his The Batman universe.
The animation will be handled by Swaybox. They use a technology called "Momo animation" which is described as "a cross between CGI animation, practical elements of stop-motion, and live-action real-time performance."
The result is promised to be a "long-form storytelling billed as visually breathtaking, dynamically expressive and more human."
Since the news arrived, fans online have weighed in on the announcement and shared their excitement about Robin getting his own animated movie and the great potential of the project with Swaybox's involvement.
This is an exciting idea, especially as it will have a unique animation style that would make it feel fresh from anything we've seen before in the DC theatrical projects.
Since it is still in early development, it might take a while before fans will get more official details about the project beyond what was announced, but the signs that we are seeing indicate that it will be a special one.
