Warner Bros. Animation and DC have announced they are developing their first full-length CGI animated final in the form of DC Battle of the Super Sons. Superman and Batman have had many titles together, often paired together as the world's finest. They are linked so closely together in projects like Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice, and even their pet sidekicks are going to team up in DC League of Super-Pets.
The Super Sons were first introduced in Worlds Finest #215 in 1973, which focused on Superman Jr. and Batman Jr., college-aged kids of the iconic superheroes and existed on another parallel reality in the DC Multiverse. The concept was reintroduced into the comics in 2017 focusing, on the children of Superman and Batman. The title featured Jonathan 'Jon' Kent, who is the son of Superman and Lois Lane and the latest Superboy, teaming up with Damian Wayne, aka the newest Robin and the son of Batman and Talia Al Ghul.
At DC FanDome, it was announced one of the upcoming DC Animated films would be titled DC Battle of the Super Sons. It was confirmed as the studio's first fully CGI animated film and will premiere sometime in 2022. No word on which incarnations of the Super Sons will be featured, but it is more than likely the film will focus on the newest incarnation of Jon Kent and Damian Wayne.
Jon Kent and Damian Wayne have become popular characters in the pages of DC Comics, and the publisher has done quite a bit to prioritize them. Jordan Elsass plays Jon Kent on the CW series Superman & Lois, and recently, DC announced that Jon Kent came out as bisexual. Meanwhile, Damian Wayne has been featured in a number of the DC Animated film projects like Son of Batman, Justice League vs. Teen Titans, and Justice League Dark: Apokolips War.
Since being founded in 2007, DC Universe Animated Original Movies has produced 42 animated films based on DC characters, with the most recent release being Batman: The Long Halloween Pt. 2 on July 27, 2021. The franchise has primarily focused on hand-drawn animation, often at times trying to stick to the comic art style of the original work like Justice League: New Frontier or Gotham By Gaslight. Even outside of the films, the last time DC Animation experimented with CGI animation was on television with Green Lantern: The Animated Series in 2011 and Beware the Batman in 2013, both of which only lasted one season. However, the announcement of DC Battle of the Super Sons may indicate a new direction for some of the studio's home animation releases.
