The CW has released new images from Arrowverse’sCrisis on Infinite Earthsmega, five-part crossover event, as reported byEntertainment Weekly. These ones come from the second part, theBatwomanepisode, which will air on Monday, December 9.
Not only do we have Supermen here, but we’ve also got a future Bruce Wayne, portrayed byKevin Conroy. Conroy, as most fans know, has voiced Batman/Bruce Wayne for the past 27 years onBatman: The Animated Series. However, he’s never physically appeared on screen as the character. This event series allows him to do that for the first time.
The crossover marks the first timeBrandon Routhhas appeared as Clark Kent/Superman since 2006’sSuperman Returns, when he revealed his formidableChristopher Reeveimpression for close to three hours. Now a forty-something Man of Steel, Routh’s sporting a distinguished graying look. Not sinceGeorge Reeves(Adventures of Superman) have we seen a Kal-El this advanced in age. The series pairs him alongside current SupermanTyler Hoechlin.Smallville’sTom Wellingwill also appear as the character.
The much anticipated crossover, which is based onMarv WolfmanandGeorge Pérez’s DC Comics event series of the same name, focuses on Batwoman (Ruby Rose), The Flash (Grant Gustin), and Green Arrow (Oliver Queen) as they attempt to prevent Anti-Monitor (LaMonica Garrett) from annihilating the whole of the multiverse. In the process, the heroes will align with other icons of DC from the films and television series.Erica Durance(Smallville),Cress Williams(Black Lightning), andAshley Scott(Birds of Prey) are among the many stars who will be appearing.
Executive producerMarc Guggenheimis excited about the series’ potential, believing it will satisfy fans of the source material. “I feel like we’re doing something that really honors the comic book,” he had told Entertainment Weekly.
