BATMAN BEYOND: YEAR ONE Trailer Teases Michael Yu’s Prospective Concept Fan Short
Batman Beyond: Year One is a brand new short film set to arrive online November 16. The project is the latest from writer/director Michael Yu and with Ryan Potter of Titans series fame heading up the cast.
Under the supervision of a now-retired Bruce Wayne, high schooler Terry McGinnis balances crime fighting and budding relationships in a futuristic Neo Gotham.
Initially shot last April, the team spent close to a year since then on post-production and began crowdfunding to pick the process up further. Their Indiegogo campaign surpassed its goal by January and completed post-production before setting up several festival and event dates in the second half of the year, including at L.A. Comic Con and at FilmQuest.
The official trailer is online as of the weekend as well, showcasing more of what Yu aspires to convey as a proof of concept that advances the beloved 1999 animated series into live-action form in a way some select viewers are already giving praise to. The latest poster is just below as well, so take a look at the assets and sub to the YouTube page for the film’s release!
