One of DC’s most eagerly awaited projects just received an exciting update. The official Animation on Max account announced that “Kite Man: Hell Yeah!”, an animated series with an impressive ensemble cast, will premiere on July 18.
Initially announced in early 2022, the Harley Quinn spin-off series has been long-awaited by fans. Kite Man is a supporting character in the popular Harley Quinn animated series, which concluded its fourth season in September 2023.
Star-Studded Cast:
Kite Man: Hell Yeah!” boasts a remarkable cast. Kaley Cuoco will reprise her role as Harley Quinn, while Keith David and Natasia Demetriou join as Darkseid and Malice, respectively. Jonathan Banks, known for his roles in “Breaking Bad” and “Better Call Saul,” will voice Noonan.
The late Lance Reddick, recently seen in the “Percy Jackson” series and “John Wick: Chapter 4,” voices the villainous Lex Luthor.
Other notable cast members include Michael Imperioli from “The Sopranos” as Moe Dubels and Stephanie Hsu from “Everything Everywhere All at Once” as Golden Glider. Matt Oberg returns to voice the titular character from the Harley Quinn series.
What Else Is Coming for DC?
DC’s live-action ventures have faced challenges since the launch of the DCEU under Zack Snyder. However, with James Gunn now at the helm, there’s renewed optimism.
Gunn, taking on a role similar to Kevin Feige‘s at Marvel, is poised to introduce a new universe filled with potential. The first live-action project in this new DCU will be “Superman,” starring David Corenswet and Rachel Brosnahan, written and directed by Gunn, set to release in 2025.
Additionally, the animated series “Creature Commandos,” featuring Frank Grillo as Rick Flag Sr., will premiere later this year. This character will also appear in the highly anticipated second season of “Peacemaker,” starring John Cena.
Furthermore, a “Blue Beetle” animated spin-off series is in development, showcasing DC’s commitment to both live-action and animated storytelling.
