Out of nowhere yesterday, James Gunn, the current grand poobah of DC Studios, announced that they’re going to make a film about Dick Grayson and Jason Todd as Robins. Longtime readers of this blog know that I really like Robin — perhaps too much — and I’m super excited to be getting some type of serious Robin project. It’s gonna be called Dynamic Duo.

All we know about the movie so far is that it’s going to be the first feature film by Swaybox, a company that does a combination of puppetry and CGI for their animation. You can check out their website to see what their style is like. Personally, I think it’s perfect for this type of project.

I’ve always felt that Robin’s story is much better than people give it credit for. Can’t say as how I think it would be a good idea to do Dick and Jason in the same movie for some reason…instead of just Dick and Batman. But I’m going to have to trust James Gunn and Matt Reeves on this one. And I totally do!

Now we just need Robin to show up in the Reevesverse…
