Teen Titans - The Movie

As pointed out in today's Hollywood Reporter, yours truly will be writing a live action Teen Titans movie for Warner Brothers and Aviva Goldsman's company, Weed Road. And I wish there were an emoticon big enough to express how thrilled I am to be involved in the project! I'm not a fan of super-early spoilers, but I will say the script involves the Nightwing character and will be exploring the Titans at an interesting (and universal) crossroads in their lives...

Sorry for the brevity, things are (as might be expected) pretty busy at the moment, but I'll keep posting as developments ensue...

Awesome, thanks for the update... I'm very excited and I know it'll be great! The Nightwing aspect should be really cool. Good luck with the script.

(Any hints as to the "tone" of the film?)

Congrats!

That's way better than writing the Bratz movie.

Great News. Congrats. Will this film explore the origins of the TT? I dont think audiences will be familiar with alot of these characters. Hopefully Impulse, Cyborg and Wonder Girl (Donna Troy) are in it! =)

Thanks for the update.
Teen Titans is one of my favourite comic book teams and I have no doubt you'll do a great job.

I'm happy that we'll finally see Nightwing's cinematic debut.

***Hopes Starfire and Raven will be in the movie***

Nightwing

Arsenal

Donna Troy

Cyborg

Impulse

Beast Boy

Starfire

would be my ideal lineup for this. 7 characters.

If you explore the character's origins, will we see a cameo from Christian Bale? (Though that may confuse people, so perhaps references would be best.)

Everyone has been talking about heroes, but what villians do you have planned? Deathstroke would be good because he is the main identifiable Teen Titans villain. Maybe if this becomes a movie series, other villains like Brother Blood, Trigon or Terra can be introduced.

Good luck. I wish you the best.

Finally Nightwing has hit the big screen! Nightwing is my all time favorite. I even named my Photography studio after the his city Bludhaven Photograhic Studios. Nightwing is a true rebel with a cause. What kind of treatments are you going to use in his costume. I have created an awesome latex muscle Nightwing suit. That is reminiscent of the X-men costumes. I think that will work.
