Batman Getting His Own LEGO Film

Warner Bros has put a "LEGO Batman" film spinoff on a fast track says EW.

Will Arnett. voiced Batman in this year's "The Lego Movie," and stole the scenes he was in. As a result, this solo outing for the character is expected to take priority over the in-development The Lego Movie 2

Chris McKay will direct the script from Seth Grahame-Smith. There's no word on which other cast members from "The LEGO Movie" will appear in the spin-off.

Roy Lee Dan Lin and “Lego” directors Phil Lord and Christopher Miller are producing the film.

The studio recently moved "The LEGO Movie 2" off of its May 26th 2017 release date. While they haven't officially dated "LEGO Batman" into that slot, the spin-off film is expected to get a 2017 release.
