Teaser images from an unreleased follow-up to the bestBatmanseries (you can fight me in the replies)Batman Beyondhave surfaced online - and they are absolutely stunning.
Speaking of Batman, have you playedBatman: Arkham Shadowyet?
“5 months ago Patrick Harpin walked into@wbpictures@DCofficialand pitched a Batman Beyond Animated Feature,” Demers stated in their post.

“Before we pitched, they warned us “there is absolutely no way we can do a Beyond movie”, but they loved our enthusiasm. We pitched the outline for the entire film, and what started as a ‘never’ turned into a ‘maybe’.”
It’s not too much of a surpriseWarner Brosisn’t too keen on taking a swing on a Batman Beyond film, given that it’s been almost 20 years since Terry’s Batman has popped up in anything outside of a comic book.
It’s also been theorised that the sales numbers of theBatman Beyond: Return of the Jokerfilm were less than stellar, as Warner Bros has only revisited the franchise once since it aired.
The last time we saw Terry in animated form was in theJustice League Unlimitedepisode “Epilogue” back in 2005, which supposedly explored a storyline that never made it into a planned fourth season of theBatman Beyondseries.

However, according to Demers, there’s still a chance we might see Terry again (as long as he can get through to James Gunn).
“In the time since we’ve been pitching our way up the company hoping to get to @jamesgunn. But for now, here’s a taste of what we’ve been cooking.”
Here’s hoping something comes out of this, because I think the current generation of Batman fans would love to see Terry return.
