Catwoman: Hunted, DC meets the anime in the new animated film

Catwoman

After a brief cameo alongside the most Japanese version of the dark knight ever seen in Batman Ninja (of which you can book the new steelbook on Amazon) Catwoman is about to return to the "anime style" thanks to the new film by Warner Bros. Animation, DC and Warner Bros. Home Entertainment: Catwoman Hunted.



According to what reported by THR, Catwoman: Hunted will revolve around Selina Kyle (voiced by Elizabeth Gillies), intent on stealing a jewel of inestimable value.

However:

The robbery will put her in the crosshairs of a powerful group of criminals, a well-organized Interpol and Batwoman, voiced by Stephanie Beatriz.

Catwoman: Hunted, a rich cast of voice actors for some iconic characters

Elizabeth Gillies and Stephanie Beatriz join the already confirmed Jonathan Banks in the role of Black Mask, Steve Blum in that of Solomon Grundy, Lauren Cohan as Julia Pennyworth, Keith David as T obias Whale, Zehra Fazal as Talia al Ghul and Nosferata, Jonathan Frakes as King Faraday and Boss Moxie, Barbara Minerva / Cheetah as Kirby Howell-Baptiste, Kelly Hu as Cheshire , Andrew Kishino as Mr. Yakuza & Domino 6, Eric Lopez as Domino 1, Jacqueline Obradors as The Lady and Ron Yuan as Doctor Tzin.



Catwoman: Hunted, beyond to be another link between the comic style "made in USA" and Japanese animation, in fact it also represents the debut of Selina Kyle as the protagonist of a feature film. Given the cast of characters and voice actors, DC certainly has high expectations for this stand-alone debut of Catwoman.

Produced by Warner Bros. Animation, DC and Warner Bros. Home Entertainment, Catwoman: Hunted is written by Greg Weisman (whose work includes titles such as: Spectacular Spider-Man, Star Wars: Rebels, Gargoyles and Young Justice) and directed by Shinsuke Terasawa. The film does not yet have a release date, but the home video version is scheduled for early 2022.

We’re writing furiously. I think it’s coming along really great. It’s exciting in that sort of perverted Marvel way — in the way that different Marvel projects are very different: One’s a thriller, one’s a comedy. This feels like that, too, but with a ton more d-ck jokes.
