After months of reports and speculation, Cartoon Network has officially announced its new Justice League animated series. Titled "Justice League Action," the show, like the network's fellow DC Comics-based series "Teen Titans Go!," will run in installments of 11-minute episodes. Notably, the show features the return of both Kevin Conroy as the voice of Batman and Mark Hamill as the voice of The Joker, roles they made famous in '90s classic "Batman: The Animated Series."

Here's the official description of the series, which doesn't yet have a premiere date:

James Woods as Lex Luthor and Diedrich Bader as Booster Gold are also announced for the voice cast. Both have prior experience with DC characters; Woods voiced Owlman in 2010's "Justice League: Crisis on Two Earths" feature, and Bader starred as Batman for three seasons of "Batman: The Brave and the Bold."

The announcement is accompanied by the first poster for the series, featuring the latest animated takes on DC icons Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman -- who all appear in March's "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" live-action film -- along with black-and-white sketches of Hawkman, Green Arrow, Zatanna, Shazam, The Flash, Blue Beetle, Plastic Man and more in the background; plus a logo clearly inspired by the team's classic comics.

There's been rumblings online of a new Justice League cartoon from Cartoon Network since last year, including a photo surfacing on Reddit showing early promotional art, but today's news marks the first official announcement. A prior "Justice League" series ran on Cartoon Network from 2001 to 2004.

Warner Bros. Animation President Sam Register is executive producer of "Justice League Action," with DC-based animation vets Butch Lukic, Alan Burnett and Jim Krieg all on board as producers.

Only 11 minutes? Attention spans are just shrinking.

Cartoon Network's New Justice League Series Is Even Bigger Than We Expected



When Cartoon Network finally announced Justice League Action, the long-rumored new series that would face the daunting task of following up on the iconic Justice League/Justice League Unlimited, many expected it to take a hard focus on DC’s trinity of Wonder Woman, Superman, and Batman. But it looks like the show’s roster will be wider and weirder than anyone expected.

The original teaser art from Justice League Action—which will run in 11-minute episodes and feature the voice talents of Mark Hamill, James Woods, Diedrich Bader, and more—teased an eclectic cast to join Clark, Diana, and Bruce, with sketches of Blue Beetle, Green Arrow, Zatanna and many others peeking out of the background. But new full color artwork that debuted at Kre8tif Conference 2016 over the weekend has revealed our best, blurry look yet at even more heroes and villains that will appear whenever the show actually starts airing.

There’s some more obvious characters you can spot there—Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, Joker, Harley Quinn, Lobo, Martian Manhunter, and Shazam, to name a few. Then some cool surprise additions like Doctors Light and Fate, the Jamie Reyes Blue Beetle, Big Barda, Firestorm, and what might be Swamp Thing on the far left of the second row. But there’s definitely a few in there that we can’t quite put our fingers on. If you can identify some of the mysterious figures, let us know in the comments!

What's this one's deal again? Is it the same voice actors from the Dini/Timm years?

Thanks for reminding me about the incident where I had just gotten hurt .
