Comments from Warner Bros.
About Koichi Yamadera as Batman
Yamadera-san is one of the most respected and appreciated voice actors in Japan, and he also appeared in "The LEGO Movie," which was released in 2014. We were very excited to have Yamadera-san, who is the best at what he does, play the role of Batman. I am excited to see how Mr. Yamadera, who has a wide repertoire, will play a Batman we have never seen before, such as being a spoiled brat and singing rap songs.

About Yoshio Kojima as Robin
Robin is an energetic, positive, no-nonsense, and innocent character who quickly pulls on tight pants. When I saw him, the first thing I thought of was Mr. Kojima (laughs). (Laughs) I thought of Kojima's gag, "I don't care about that!" I am confident that the mischievous Robin, who inherits Kojima-san's gag, will be a character that both adults and children will enjoy watching!

About the Okazu Club
We thought it would be best to have the "sexy comedian" Ocarina play the role of the female mayor, played by America's sexiest and most popular diva, Mariah Carey. I will never forget the look on Yui P's face when she said, "Is this how you guys do things? I was curious to see what kind of character Poison Ivy would become if she could play the role of the powerful enemy, Poison Ivy, so I made the offer and she readily agreed.
