Here’s another reason to buy Crisis on Two Earths
A little over a year ago, DC and Warner Premier announced DC Showcase. The intent was to make short films based on the, lesser known, but equally interesting characters in the DC universe that might not warrant they’re own feature length film.
Well, it seems that in a few weeks, we’ll finally be able to see the first taste of this project.
DC Showcase: The Specter is the first in the line of these short films, and will be included in the 2 disc and blu ray version of Justice League Crisis on Two Earths. But why am I telling you all of this when I can let Warner do all the taking via this press release:
From the creative forces behind the PG-13 “DC Universe Animated Original Movie” line, “DC Showcase” puts the spotlight on favorite characters from throughout the annals of DC Comics in fascinating, short-form tales sure to entertain longtime and new fans alike.
The Spectre focuses on a detective story with an ethereal twist, featuring the otherworldly character originally introduced by DC Comics in 1940. The short is written by Steve Niles (30 Days of Night) and directed by Joaquim Dos Santos (G.I Joe: Resolute). The voice cast is led by Gary Cole (Entourage) as the title character and Alyssa Milano (Charmed) as Aimee Brenner.
The Spectre will be distributed February 23 by Warner Home Video as part of the Justice League: Crisis on Two Earths Blu-ray/DVD.
“DC Showcase” is a co-production from Warner Premiere, Warner Bros. Animation, Warner Home Video and DC Comics. Bruce Timm is Executive Producer. Future “DC Showcase” titles include Jonah Hex (written by Joe Lansdale).
Sounds awesome! Need more proof, take a gander at these images below.
