The two-part animated film from Warner Bros. and DC Entertainment is being adapted from Frank Miller’s iconic 1986 graphic novel, The Dark Knight Returns, which partially inspired the events in Nolan’s third Batman film. The graphic novel tells the story of Bruce Wayne coming out of retirement to combat Two-Face and a Gotham gang known as the Mutants.

Directed by Jay Oliva, the film features a voice cast including Peter Weller (Bruce Wayne/Batman), Ariel Winter (Robin) and Wade Williams (Harvey Dent/Two-Face). The first part hits stores Sept. 25, with the conclusion coming in 2013.
