New Details Arise For Upcoming “Justice League: Crisis On Two Earths” Animated Feature
According to the “A First Look at Justice League: Crisis on Two Earths” featurette, featured the upcoming Superman/Batman: Public Enemies direct-to-video animated feature home video release, the upcoming Justice League: Crisis On Two Earths animated feature has origins spinning out of the classic Justice League Unlimited animated series.
During the “A First Look at Justice League: Crisis on Two Earths” featurette, Gregory Noveck, SVP Creative Affairs for DC Comics, discusses the production history of the upcoming Justice League: Crisis on Two Earths direct-to-video animated feature, including how the story for the upcoming feature came to be.
“We had a script from Dwayne McDuffie called ‘World’s Collide’ that was originally intended to be the next chapter in the Justice League Unlimited television series,” says Noveck in the featurette, “but that series was canceled and wasn’t going to come back.”
Continuing in the “A First Look at Justice League: Crisis on Two Earths” featurette, Noveck reveals that he went to writer Dwayne McDuffie, of Justice League and Justice League Unlimited, and asked him to adapt the script to be part of the DC Universe Animated Original Movie line.
“Dwayne had written this terrific script, so we went to Dwayne and said ‘Hey, want to look at your old script and see if you want to just morph it a little more so it’s closer to just really addressing the DC continuity and not addressing the Justice League Unlimited continuity?'” says Noveck, “and he said ‘Yes’ and we ended up with this terrific script.”
More production details for the upcoming Justice League: Crisis on Two Earths direct-to-video animated feature are revealed on the “A First Look at Justice League: Crisis on Two Earths” featurette, available on both the Blu-ray and Two-Disc Special Edition DVD release of Superman/Batman: Public Enemies, hitting shelves on September 29th, 2009. Stay tuned for a full review and further coverage of Superman/Batman: Public Enemies here at The World’s Finest.
Commenting in the official forum for The World’s Finest, located here, Justice League: Crisis on Two Earths executive producer Bruce Timm states that despite what Noveck says in the “A First Look at Justice League: Crisis on Two Earths” featurette, it was actually his idea to adapt the Justice League Unlimited ‘Worlds Collide’ script for the upcoming direct-to-video animated feature. Timm says he saw it as opportunity to get the ‘Worlds Collide’ story produced and on screens.
A co-production of Warner Premiere, DC Comics and Warner Bros. Animation, the direct-to-video Justice League: Crisis on Two Earths animated feature is scheduled to premiere on DVD and Blu-ray in Spring 2010. Click here for initial plot and casting details.
