Why Mark Hamill & Kevin Conroy's Acting History Makes Crisis On Infinite Earths So Important
Excitement For The Animated Movie Has Just Skyrocketed
Batman and the Joker in Batman The Animated Series - Excitement For The Animated Movie Has Just Skyrocketed - Why Mark Hamill & Kevin Conroy's Acting History Makes Crisis On Infinite Earths So Important
Conroy and Hamill began their iconic portrayal of Batman and the Joker in 1992's Batman: The Animated Series. This groundbreaking show played a pivotal role in solidifying Batman's darker tone for future iterations, while also introducing innovative concepts and characters that have since become staples in the Batman mythos and DC universe. Notable contributions from the animated series include the fleshing out of Mr. Freeze's backstory and the introduction of the immensely popular character, Harley Quinn.
Hamill once revealed that his one condition for playing the Joker was always asking if Conroy would be the Batman of the project he was approached for.
As IGN had previously reported that Conroy would appear in Justice League: Crisis on Infinite Earths - Part 3 as his Bruce Wayne from Batman: The Animated Series and not another multiverse variant, Hamill's original Joker will also make a return. After their work in Batman: The Animated Series, Conroy and Hamill would become close friends and share the screen on several projects.

Justice League: Crisis on Infinite Earths – Part Three | 2024 |
Conroy and Hamill are highly regarded as the best duo to have ever voiced the DC characters with so many collaborations as Batman and the Joker over the years. The news that fans will get to see the duo together one more time after Conroy's passing is groundbreaking. Additionally, Conroy's other posthumous appearance as Batman in the video game Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League was poorly received. This makes Justice League: Crisis on Infinite Earths - Part 3 an unmissable event, as it features the actor's final Batman appearance alongside Hamill's Joker as their original characters.
Editor's P/S:
The news that Kevin Conroy and Mark Hamill will reprise their iconic roles as Batman and the Joker in "Justice League: Crisis on Infinite Earths - Part 3" is both bittersweet and exhilarating. Conroy's passing in November 2022 left a void in the hearts of countless fans, and the thought that we will witness him and Hamill share the screen one last time is both a testament to their enduring legacy and a poignant reminder of Conroy's absence. It is a fitting tribute to two actors who have defined these characters for generations, and their final collaboration will undoubtedly be a cinematic event that fans will cherish.
However, it is also important to note that Conroy's posthumous appearance in "Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League" was met with criticism. While it is understandable that fans may have been eager to see Conroy reprise his role, the execution of his performance was reportedly underwhelming. This raises concerns about whether "Justice League: Crisis on Infinite Earths - Part 3" will truly do justice to Conroy's legacy. Ultimately, the film will be judged on its own merits, but it is crucial that the filmmakers approach Conroy's final performance with the utmost care and respect.
