Prime Video reveals the voice cast and a sneak peek of upcoming animated series, Bat-Fam, set to premiere this November. Reprising their roles from the hit Merry Little Batman film, the new half-hour action-comedy, based on characters from DC and produced by Warner Bros. Animation, stars Luke Wilson as the voice of Bruce Wayne, Yonas Kibreab as the voice of Damian Wayne, and James Cromwell, who returns to voice Alfred Pennyworth. This dynamic trio of voices is joined by Haley Tju as Claire, London Hughes as Alicia, Michael Benyaer as Ra's Al Ghul, and Bobby Moynihan as Man-Bat.
Bat-Fam follows Batman, Alfred, and young Damian Wayne - now having taken on the mantle of "Little Batman" - as they welcome a few new residents to Wayne Manor. Joining the family dinner table is Alicia Pennyworth, Alfred's free-spirited grandniece; Claire, a recently reformed Super-Villain; Ra's al Ghul, Damian's adoring "Pap Pap" who also happens to be Batman's longtime nemesis; and Man-Bat, who takes up residence in the Wayne Manor belfry. Oh! And let's not forget Selina, the beloved family cat. This close-knit family of misfits navigate the fun and frustrations of ordinary life while protecting the streets of Gotham City. Prepare for nonstop action, big heart, and hilarious chaos!
Prior to premiere, Bat-Fam will take centerstage at New York Comic Con on Saturday, October 11 with a sneak peek screening and panel featuring EP/showrunner Mike Roth and members of the voice cast. The event will take place at the Javits Center in room 405 from 12:30-1:30 PM
