DC Entertainment has released the first picture of the superhero team from DC Universe’s live-action Titans TV series via Entertainment Weekly. The picture in question features Dick Grayson/ Robin (Brenton Thwaites), Rachel Roth/ Raven (Teagan Croft), Koriand’r/ Starfire (Anna Diop), and Garfield Logan/ Beast Boy (Ryan Potter).
You can check out the picture below.
Fans can expect some of DC’s finest young superheroes to show up in the Titans TV series as it will see the team crossing paths with Hawk (Alan Ritchson) and Dove (Minka Kelly), the members of Doom Patrol, Wonder Girl Donna Troy (Conor Leslie), and Batman’s current sidekick, Jason Todd (Curran Walters).
Recently, IGN exclusively released two new Titans promotional pictures showcasing a costumed Jason coming face to face with his predecessor, Dick Grayson, in a not so friendly encounter. It is Jason’s first live-action appearance in any DC property.
Talking about the equation between the two Robins with IGN, showrunner Greg Walker said that the two have a lot of differences.
“It’s kind of like one of those classic covers of the books, original versus number 2, and in many ways, you really see that,” Walker laughed. “This encapsulates the tension, the energy between these two guys. It’s like running into your ex-girlfriend’s new boyfriend, minus the sexual tension. You get to watch Dick Grayson struggle when he sees another Robin and how that Robin is different and has a different relationship with ‘dad.’ And the second child gets away with stuff the first child would never get away with in a family, and ours is really a family show.”
Notably, Titans will follow the story of detective Dick Grayson who comes forward to help a haunted girl called Raven to understand her powers. The two will wind up crossing paths with Starfire and Beast Boy, who are also dealing with feelings of being lost souls.
Titans premieres on DC Universe on October 12, with new episodes arriving every Friday.
