identity in this computer-generated comedy from the
filmmakers behind Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs and
co-director Chris McKay (Robot Chicken). Will Arnett co-stars
as the voice of Batman, who along with Superman, make
appearances in the Warner Bros. picture. Elizabeth Banks,
Morgan Freeman, Will Ferrell, Liam Neeson, and Alison Brie
head up the rest of the voice cast. Author: Jeremy Wheeler.
