It is reported that DC will continue its string of straight-to-DVD animated film with two big named Batman films. First it is announced that Frank Miller’s story about an elder Batman coming out of retirement, the famous story known as The Dark Night Return is being made into an animated movie.

There is no official word who will be writing or directing the movie, but it won’t come out until after the release of Batman: Year One (directed by Sam Liu and Lauren Montgomery, thanks to Daily Blam) animated conversion. This story, also written by Frank Miller, tells the story of a young Bruce Wayne just starting as Batman out after his lifetime of training. DC Entertainment has yet to respond at publication time.
