Beware the Batman, a new animated series from Warner Bros. Animation, is set to premiere on Cartoon Network on July 13, 2013 at 10am. The animated action series will feature Banshee‘s Anthony Ruivivar as Batman/Bruce Wayne, JB Blanc (The Count of Monte Cristo) as Alfred, and Sumalee Montano (ER) as Katana.

In addition, the villains will be voiced by Wallace Langham (CSI: Crime Scene Investigation) as Anarky, Grey DeLisle (Green Lantern: The Animated Series) as Magpie, Udo Kier (Scooby-Doo! Mystery Inc.) as Mr. Toad, Lance Reddick (Fringe) as Ra’s al Ghul, and Brian George (The Big Bang Theory) as Professor Pyg.

The Saturday morning series will feature “cutting-edge CGI visuals” and will be followed in the line-up by Teen Titans Go! at 10:30am.

The Plot: A cool, new take on the classic Dark Knight franchise, Beware the Batman incorporates Batman’s core characters with a rogues gallery of new villains not previously seen in animated form. Along with backup from ex-secret agent Alfred and lethal swordswoman Katana, the Dark Knight faces the twisted machinations of Gotham City’s criminal underworld led by the likes of Anarky, Professor Pyg, Mister Toad and Magpie.
