Warner Bros. Animation revealed voice roles for Dick Grayson, Jason Todd, and two Red Hood operatives for Dynamic Duo, while the identity of Batman and potential live-action ties are still uncertain.
Lee Pace and Steve Buscemi were cast as members of the Red Hood Gang (Red Hood One and Red Hood Two).
Insiders have named Chris Pine as a possible Batman and Marsai Martin as a rumored Barbara Gordon, but those casting claims are unconfirmed.
# What was announced Warner Bros. Animation and DC revealed several confirmed voice cast members for Dynamic Duo, an animated Batman-adjacent movie scheduled to open September 22, 2028. The confirmed names are Mason Thames, Logan Kim, Lee Pace, and Steve Buscemi.

# Unconfirmed big names: Batman and Barbara Gordon
# Duo fits into current DC output 2026 has been a mixed year for DC across film and television: the Superman movie created momentum, Supergirl underperformed on the movie side, and HBO's Lanterns was a breakout on TV. DC is expanding into multiple project types, including what the article calls the franchise's first villain-centered horror film (Clayface) and the Superman sequel Man of Tomorrow slated for 2027. Dynamic Duo is part of that broader slate but keeps itself separate as an animated Elseworlds story.
# What the confirmed casting implies
# Bottom line Dynamic Duo is shaping up with four confirmed voice actors tied to the story of Dick Grayson and Jason Todd and the Red Hood Gang, but the most scrutinized role — Batman — has not been officially announced. The film is set as a standalone animated project for 2028, and while insiders have floated notable live-action names, official confirmation has not arrived.
