With "Justice League: Crisis on Two Earths" hitting the shelves tomorrow it is now time to start talking about the next DC animation. "Batman: Under The Hood" will be the latest comic storyline adapted into a film with animation legend Bruce Timm executive producing and Brandon Vietti ("Superman: Doomsday") on board as the director.

According to The Los Angeles Times, Bruce Greenwood will star as Batman, with John DiMaggio ("Futurama") as the Joker, "Supernatural" star Jensen Ackles as the Red Hood and Jason Isaacs as Ra's Al Ghul. "Doctor Horrible" and "How I Met Your Mother" star Neil Patrick Harris will portray Nightwing.

"Batman: Under The Hood" was adapted by Judd Winick and based on the storyline of the same name that Winick wrote in the "Batman" comic series with artists Doug Mahnke and Paul Lee. The story finds Batman contending with Jason Todd, the resurrected second 'Robin' who was murdered by the Joker in the 'A Death In The Family' storyline. Todd has come back and donned the identity of the Red Hood — a former alias of the Joker — in order to pursue his revenge against the Dark Knight and the Clown Prince of Crime.

This is exciting for comic book fans since we have seen very few adaptations from comic book stories to film. If this is successful this could be the beginning of something beautiful.
