DC Entertainment and Warner Bros. Animation's new original movie Scooby-Doo! & Batman: The Brave and the Bold will be released on DVD and digital on January 9, 2018.

In the film, Batman joins forces with Scooby-Doo and his pals Shaggy, Fred, Daphne, and Velma after villains from both of their worlds unite to wreak havoc on the city. For a sneak peek at Scooby-Doo! & Batman: The Brave and the Bold, check out the debut trailer in the player above.

In addition to classic DC villains like Joker, Catwoman, Riddler, Penguin, Scarecrow, Poison Ivy and Harley Quinn, the movie will also feature several friendly faces, including the likes of Aquaman, Plastic Man, The Question and Martian Manhunter. The crew will also have to contend with Scooby-Doo troublemakers like Ghost Clown, Spooky Space Kook, Gentleman Ghost, and Miner 49er.

The main voice cast includes Diedrich Bader as Batman, Frank Welker as Scooby-Doo and Fred, Grey Griffin as Daphne and Black Canary, Matthew Lillard as Shaggy, and Kate Micucci as Velma. The guest cast is comprised of Jeff Bennett as Joker, Jeffrey Combs as The Question, John DiMaggio as Aquaman, Nika Futterman as Catwoman, Nicholas Guest as Martian Manhunter, John Michael Higgins as The Riddler, Tom Kenny as Penguin and Plastic Man, Kevin Michael Richardson as Detective Chimp, Tara Strong as Harley Quinn and Poison Ivy, and Fred Tatasciore as Harvey Bullock.

Scooby-Doo! & Batman: The Brave and the Bold is directed by Jake Castorena. Paul Giacoppo wrote the teleplay, which is based on a story by supervising producer James Tucker. Michael Jelenic is producer on the film, with Sam Register, Benjamin Melniker, and Michael Uslan serving as executive producers.

This isn't the first time Scooby-Doo and the Caped Crusader have joined forces. Back in 1972, Batman and Robin appeared in two hour-long TV movies: The Dynamic Scooby-Doo Affair and The Caped Crusader Caper.

Scooby-Doo! & Batman: The Brave and the Bold isn't the only new upcoming animated feature about the iconic DC superhero. Warner Bros. Japan's anime movie Batman Ninja will be released on Blu-ray and DVD in 2018, and an animated retelling of Gotham by Gaslight will also be released next year.
