Batman: Return of the Caped Crusaders is a 2016 American animated superhero film produced by Warner Bros. Animation and distributed by Warner Bros. Pictures.[9] Based on the 1960s Batman TV series,[10] the film stars the voices of Adam West, Burt Ward, and Julie Newmar reprising their roles of Batman, Robin, and Catwoman from the series.[11] In the film, Batman and Robin set out to defeat the Joker, the Penguin, the Riddler, and Catwoman, who have teamed up. Matters are further complicated when Batman gradually becomes more hostile.

Originally intended to be released directly on home media, the film premiered at the New York Comic Con on October 6, 2016,[12] and had a simultaneous release in theaters on October 10,[13] a digital release on October 11, and a physical home media release on DVD and Blu-ray on November 1.[14]

A sequel entitled Batman vs. Two-Face[15] was released on October 10, 2017, four months after Adam West's death.[16][17]
