According to SyFy, Warner Bros. Animation, Warner Home Entertainment, DC Entertainment and Nickelodeon are working on a new Batman vs. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles animated movie.

This will be based on the Batman/Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles comic book miniseries by James Tynion IV and Freddie Williams II which was a joint venture between IDW and DC. In the story we see the turtles meeting Batman via a transdimensional encounter. They will be taking on a number of Batman's rogue gallery including the Joker who will be voiced by Troy Baker who will also voice Batman.

The entire voice cast will include Troy Baker (The Last of Us, Batman: Arkham Origins) as both Batman and The Joker, Darren Criss (the Emmy winning star of The Assassination of Gianni Versace: American Crime Story) as Raphael, Kyle Mooney (Saturday Night Live) as Michelangelo, Baron Vaughn (Grace and Frankie) as Donatello, Eric Bauza (The Woody Woodpecker Show) as Leonardo, Rachel Bloom (Crazy Ex-Girlfriend) as Batgirl, Tom Kenny (Spongebob Squarepants) as The Penguin, John DiMaggio (Adventure Time) as Mr. Freeze, Tara Strong (The Powerpuff Girls) as both Harley Quinn and Poison Ivy, Carlos Alazraqui (Reno 911!) as Bane, and Cas Anvar (The Expanse) as Ra's al Ghul.

Batman vs. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles will arrive on 4K, Blu-ray, and Digital late this spring.

So this makes 2 animated TMNT movies right?  I'm assuming this is unrelated to the one that got announced for Netflix.

This is nice. Now we can have 2 versions of TMNT simultaneously. Hopefully, this means more future direct to video Ninja Turtles features showcasing different eras.

The Netflix news was for Rise of the TMNT. This  one is about the DC Comics & IDW.

This should be something worth checking out, the comic was pretty good.

[mako]

Sounds like a winner. I'll be there!

[DaEXfactoR]

Seems like a good idea. Both mini series' were pretty good. I'm pretty excited for this. 

[sXeblues]

This has the potential to be all kinds of badass... And I’d be lying if I said seeing Batman and the TMNT together in any capacity didn’t get me stoked. So, I’m definitely excited to check this sucker out!

[NautilusMollusc]

Cant wait! I liked the comic so hopefully this is just as good or better!

[TheMikeSnyder]

I still need to read the crossover comic.  Heard good things.

Below you will find the first official clip released from "Batman vs. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles," an all-new film from Warner Bros. Animation, DC, Nickelodeon and Warner Bros. Home Entertainment coming to Digital on May 14, 2019, and arriving on 4K Ultra HD Combo Pack and Blu-ray Combo Pack on June 4, 2019.
 

"Batman vs. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" finds Gotham City reaching new levels of danger when Shredder joins forces with Ra's al Ghul to enact a nefarious plan – leading to the team-up of the Dark Knight and the Turtles to combat the combined might of the Foot Clan and League of Assassins!

The "Batman vs. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" all-star cast is led by Troy Baker (Batman: Arkham Origins, The Last of Us) as the voice of both Batman and the Joker – making Baker the first actor to ever play both roles in the same film. Opposite Baker are the Ninja Turtles themselves – Emmy Award/Golden Globe Award/SAG Award winner Darren Criss (American Crime Story: The Assassination of Gianni Versace, Glee) as Raphael, Kyle Mooney (Saturday Night Live) as Michelangelo, Baron Vaughn (Grace and Frankie) as Donatello, and Eric Bauza (Looney Tunes Cartoons, The Woody Woodpecker Show) as Leonardo.

The first official clip is actually the opening scene of the film, where the Foot Clan descends upon Powers Industrial at the same time Barbara Gordon, aka Batgirl (voiced by Rachel Bloom of "Crazy Ex-Girlfriend" fame) is touring the facility, getting a first-hand look at an important power generator.
