DC Studios' upcoming animated movie Dynamic Duo has made history by unveiling its first footage nearly three years before its planned release. The teaser, shared by animation studio Swaybox Studios, promotes an open audition process starting November 15. The film follows Dick Grayson and Jason Todd as Robins teaming up against a super-powered threat in Gotham City.
Footage Details
The brief footage shows a station wagon pulling into a dingy garage amid a rain-soaked cityscape, before speeding off and crashing into a concrete pillar. Released online on November 8, 2025, this marks the first official glimpse of a DC movie more than two and a half years from its June 30, 2028, theatrical debut. Swaybox Studios shared it to build excitement for their open casting call, allowing anyone to audition online starting November 15.
Production Background
Dynamic Duo is a collaborative project from DC Studios, Matt Reeves' 6th and Idaho Productions, and Swaybox Studios. It blends stop-motion, CG animation, and high-end puppetry to tell the story of two Robins—Dick Grayson and Jason Todd—joining forces against a common enemy. The film slots into DC's lineup after projects like Supergirl, Clayface, The Batman 2 (October 1, 2027), and Superman 2: Man of Tomorrow. It remains unclear whether Dynamic Duo will integrate into James Gunn's DCU or serve as an Elseworlds story outside main continuity.
Release Speculation
With production involving complex animation techniques, the June 2028 date allows ample time for completion. While the early footage might suggest advanced progress, it primarily aims to hype the auditions rather than signal a potential earlier release. Any shift could risk overlapping with The Batman 2, but no changes have been announced. Fans hope for more teases as production advances over the coming years.
