Batman And Superman Set To Star In...

Batman and Superman Set for LEGO Movie
Superheroes will feature in LEGO: The Piece of Resistance.

Warner Bros.' upcoming LEGO movie, LEGO: The Piece of Resistance, will feature two very special characters: Batman and Superman.

Variety reports that the film, which will be directed by Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs' Phil Lord and Christopher Miller, will feature the two comic-book icons, which of course makes perfect sense considering Bats and Supes' presence in the LEGO franchise of games and building blocks.



Arrested Development's Will Arnett will voice Batman and the directors are courting Channing Tatum to voice Superman. (Tatum starred in Lord and Miller's 21 Jump Street). Chris Pratt (Parks and Recreation) will voice the film's main character.

LEGO: The Piece of Resistance will be a hybrid of live-action and LEGO-based animation. Chris McKay, a director on Robot Chicken, is co-directing the film under Lord and Miller. Presumably he'll be in charge of the animated portions, though the stop-motion nature of Robot Chicken raises the question of how much of the LEGO film's animation will also be achieved this way as opposed to through CGI. (The Australia-based Animal Logic will handle the actual animation.) The film will be released on Feb. 28, 2014.
