Warner Bros. animation and DC Entertainment have revealed the first look at their new animated film Justice League: The Flashpoint Paradox. They've released a synopsis as well. The latest film is based on the Geoff Johns and Andy Kubert miniseries, and it will be released on July 30th, 2013. I'm sure they'll show the film off earlier in the month at San Diego Comic-Con. Here's the synopsis...
When time travel allows a past wrong to be righted for The Flash and his family, the ripples of the event prove disastrous as a fractured, alternate reality now exists where a Justice League never formed, and even Superman is nowhere to be found. Teaming with a grittier, more violent Dark Knight and Cyborg, Flash races to restore the continuity of his original timeline while this new world is ravaged by a fierce war between Wonder Woman's Amazons and Aquaman’s Atlanteans. With breath taking action and an all-star voice cast, it's a bold, emotional vision that will forever change the landscape of the DC Universe.
As for the cast, Kevin Conroy plays Bruce Wayne/Batman, Ron Perlman reprises his Teen Titans role as Deathstroke, Dana Delany returns as Lois Lane, and Vanessa Marshall is Wonder Woman. The rest of the cast has yet to be revealed, but the characters include Flash, Cyborg, Reverse Flash, Aquaman, and Thomas Wayne/Batman.
We recently had the opportunity to watch Superman: Unbound at WonderCon, and the story and script were pretty solid. The animation was a little on the cheap side though. Hopefully this next time around they put a little more care into their animation production.
