Here’s when to catch new episodes of Batman: Caped Crusader on Prime Video

As a seasoned gamer and a devoted Batman fan, I can’t help but feel a surge of excitement as I anticipate the arrival of “Batman: Caped Crusader” on Prime Video! The legacy of 1992’s “Batman the Animated Series” is one that has left an indelible mark on my gaming and animation-loving heart. Kevin Conroy’s Batman and Mark Hamill’s Joker have been staples in my collection of favorite characters, and I am eager to see what this new series brings to the table.


The new animated series titled “Batman: Caped Crusader” will soon be available on Prime Video. However, if you’re wondering when you can catch all the episodes, here’s a hint: Keep an eye out for its release starting from a specific date that will be announced later!

To numerous Batman enthusiasts, the 1992 animated series titled “Batman: The Animated Series” stands as the ultimate portrayal of the Dark Knight. Airing first on Fox (and subsequently on the WB) from 1992 to 1997, it garnered acclaim not just for its stunning visuals but also for its insightful scriptwriting that frequently explored the complexities of Batman and his rogue gallery of villains.

In addition to the cast, Kevin Conroy, an exceptional Batman, was part of it. He voiced the character in cartoons and video games up until his passing in 2022. Similarly, many would agree that Mark Hamill is unparalleled as the Joker. The show sparked a DC animated universe including Superman and the successful Justice League series. Since then, numerous Batman animated shows have been made, but few have reached the same level of excellence as BTAS.

Currently, Prime Video has rolled out a fresh perspective titled “Caped Crusader“. This original world features bold concepts, including the Penguin character being portrayed as a woman and voiced by Minnie Driver. The show boasts an impressive background, with production by Bruce Timm, creator of BTAS, along with JJ Abrams. The series focuses on a younger Bruce Wayne starting his career as Batman, with a stronger emphasis on him as a detective rather than a hero.

In 2021, the show was initially produced for both HBO and Max. However, due to corporate complications within Warner Bros., it became one of several productions that were unfortunately canceled. Luckily, Prime Video managed to secure the rights in a bidding war, ensuring the series would reach viewers instead.

The voice lineup features Hamish Linklater portraying Batman, Christina Ricci as Catwoman, Jamie Chung as Harley Quinn, Diedrich Bader transforming into Two-Face from Harvey Dent, Eric Morgan Stuart as Jim Gordon, and Jason Watkins as Alfred. Although the Joker is yet to appear, we can expect other iconic Batman adversaries such as Firefly, Clayface, and Gentleman Ghost. The show’s distinctive retro ambiance and Art Deco design are visually stunning, but when do we get a chance to watch it?

When does Batman: Caped Crusader arrive on video?

For enthusiasts, it’s exciting to know that the entire series of 10 episodes will be available simultaneously on August 1st at 12:01 a.m. Eastern Time on Amazon’s Prime Video streaming platform.

Instead of releasing episodes of a popular show on a weekly basis like one might expect from Amazon, they prefer to make all episodes available simultaneously. This approach seems to be effective in drawing viewers in quickly due to its binge-worthy nature.

Fear not, enthusiasts, as the series has already been given the green light for another season! Hence, if you’re a long-time fan of the Batman: The Animated Series or simply seeking a new perspective on the Dark Knight, Batman: Caped Crusader seems to be an exciting adventure ahead.

Batman: Caped Crusader premieres on Thursday, Aug. 1, on Prime Video.
