Spotify, Warner Bros., and DC have announced the casting and first details for their new podcast Batman Unburied. The new podcast will be executive produced by David S. Goyer and will have Winston Duke starring as Bruce Wayne.
The new series led by Goyer and his Phantom Four company will show a new side of the Caped Crusader. Batman Unburied is a psychological thriller that takes us on a new journey deep into the mind of Bruce Wayne introducing a slew of dark twists and turns with a number of classic Batman Super-Villains. When audiences meet Bruce Wayne, he is a forensic pathologist, working in the bowels of Gotham Hospital and tasked with examining the victims of The Harvester, a gruesome serial killer preying on Gotham’s citizens. Not only will the Super-Hero be forced to face his own mental demons, but he will also have to overcome them in order to save the citizens of Gotham as his alter-ego, Batman.
In addition, Jason Isaacs will star as Bruce’s loyal butler and right-hand man, Alfred.
