Batman: Soul of the Dragon Is A Go

First rumored earlier this summer, The Hollywood Reporter has confirmed that Batman: Soul of the Dragon is in production and slated to release sometime next year. According to the report,

Soul of the Dragon stars David Giuntoli as Bruce Wayne/Batman, Mark Dacascos as Richard Dragon, Kelly Hu as Lady Shiva, Michael Jai White as Ben Turner/Bronze Tiger, James Hong as O-Sensei and Josh Keaton as Jeffrey Burr. Batman: The Animated Series’ Bruce Timm is executive producing, with Sam Liu, known for Reign of the Supermen and Batman: The Killing Joke, directing and producing. Mortal Kombat Legends: Scorpion’s Revenge writer Jeremy Adams penned the script. 

The film will be produced by Warner Bros. Animation, DC and Warner Bros. Home Entertainment.

Turner, Dragon, and Shiva are students from Bruce Wayne’s past who team up to take down a mighty foe.

Our Take

Interesting cast, with Michael Jai White being probably the most famous of the group. In any event, it sounds like a solid idea, let’s see how the execution is going to come about.
