Prime Video's family friendly new animated series from DC and Warner Bros. Animation, "Bat-Fam," premiered on November 10, with all ten of its 30-minute episodes with "laughter, heroics, and just a dash of drama", proving that in this family, saving Gotham City is serious business — but family comes first.
Created by Mike Roth and Jase Ricci, the vibrant series is a follow-up to the 2023 holiday film, Merry Little Batman, centered around Batman, Alfred, and young Damian Wayne - now having taken on the mantle of "Little Batman" - as they welcome a few new residents to Wayne Manor. Joining the family dinner table is Alicia Pennyworth, Alfred's free-spirited grandniece; Claire, a recently reformed Super-Villain; Ra's al Ghul, Damian's adoring "Pap Pap" who also happens to be Batman's longtime nemesis; and Man-Bat, who takes up residence in the Wayne Manor belfry. Oh! And let's not forget Selina, the beloved family cat. This close-knit family of misfits navigates the fun and frustrations of ordinary life while protecting the streets of Gotham City.
Lending their voices for the fun series is Luke Wilson (voice of Batman/Bruce Wayne), Yonas Kibreab (voice of Damian Wayne), James Cromwell (voice of Alfred Pennyworth), Haley Tju (voice of Claire), London Hughes (voice of Alicia Pennyworth), Michael Benyaer (voice of Ra's Al Ghul), and Bobby Moynihan (voice of Man-Bat).
The series is action packed and highly entertaining, loaded with tons of fun and adventure, as Batman must battle his enemies while fighting for the greater good. Taking a fresh animated approach, it is the first series to focus on Bruce and the Bat family through a comical lens, topped with quirky characters and a distinctive style that sets it apart from previous adaptations. The series also delivers a deeper message and explores themes of friendship and family, with heartwarming elements that both adults and young fans will enjoy.
All episodes are available to stream on Prime Video, Amazon Kids+, and Amazon's digital subscription for kids.
