Runtime And Tentative Bonus Features For SON OF BATMAN Revealed

Last week saw the announcement of DC’s next animated feature, Son of Batman. So far, we’ve seen the trailer, voice cast list, release date, and cover art. Now, via World’s Finest Online, we have a list of initial bonus features from the DVD and Blu-Ray releases, as well as the movie’s runtime. The film, which adapts Grant Morrison’s “Batman and Son” story arc, runs at 74 minutes, which is similar to nearly all of DC’s animated movies. 
Additionally, Warner Bros. has released a more detailed plot summary, revealing that Commissioner Gordon and Nightwing will also be featured in the movie. Actor Sean Maher recently confirmed that he was voicing Dick Grayson in an unspecified project, and it looks like it’s for Son of Batman. You can check out the synopsis below, along with the list of bonus features. Son of Batman hits shelves on May 6th.
Hidden atop a secret mountain stronghold lies the League of Shadows and its fearless leader, Ra’s al Ghul. Together with his equally dangerous daughter Talia, he oversees a trained army of assassins with plans for global domination. But an uprising from within the league now threatens to shift the balance of power and sends Talia and her young son, Damian, fleeing to Gotham City. With assassins on their trail, Talia seeks the protection of Batman, who, unbeknownst to him, is the boy’s father. With his son in tow, Batman wages war against the villain Deathstroke and the League of Shadows, all while teaching his headstrong boy that one can’t fight crime by becoming a criminal. With help from Gotham’s finest, including Commissioner Gordon and Nightwing, Batman will soon discover that his son and most trusted ally are one and the same!
