Supernatural alum Jensen Ackles has been tapped to voice Bruce Wayne in the Batman: The Long Halloween, Part One animated movie.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, joining Ackles is an all-star list of actors, including the late Naya Rivera as Catwoman/Selina Kyle, Josh Duhamel as Harvey Dent, Billy Burke as James Gordon, Titus Welliver as Carmine Falcone, David Dastmalchian as Calendar Man, Troy Baker as Joker, Amy Landecker as Barbara Gordon, Julie Nathanson as Gilda Dent, Jack Quaid as Alberto, Fred Tatasciore as Solomon Grundy and Alastair Duncan as Alfred.
Batman: The Long Halloween will be split into two films. Rivera passed away in July 2020, though she reportedly completed her voice work for the Warner Bros. Animation project. Ackles has previously worked on another DC animated movie, 2010's Batman: Under the Red Hood, where he voiced Jason Todd/Red Hood.
The Long Halloween was written by Jeph Loeb and illustrated by Tim Sale. Published in 1996, the 13-part series takes place in Batman's early days and follows the Dark Knight as he attempts to apprehend mysterious a serial killer who murders people on holidays, once per month. In addition to the series re-introducing the villain of Calendar Man -- who knows the Holiday killer's identity, but won't tell Batman -- The Long Halloween also chronicled Harvey Dent's transformation into the villain Two-Face. Throughout the book's 13 issues, Batman also has run-ins with the likes of Catwoman, Joker, Scarecrow, Mad Hatter, Poison Ivy and the Riddler, among others. Chronologically, The Long Halloween falls after the events of Frank Miller and David Mazzucchelli's Batman: Year One.
Batman: The Long Halloween, Part One stars Jensen Ackles as Bruce Wayne/Batman, Naya Rivera as Catwoman/Selina Kyle, Josh Duhamel as Harvey Dent, Billy Burke as James Gordon, Titus Welliver as Carmine Falcone, David Dastmalchian as Calendar Man, Troy Baker as Joker, Amy Landecker as Barbara Gordon, Julie Nathanson as Gilda Dent, Jack Quaid as Alberto, Fred Tatasciore as Solomon Grundy and Alastair Duncan as Alfred, along with Frances Callier, Greg Chun, Gary Leroi Gray and Jim Pirri. The film is expected to arrive this spring or summer.
