The Hollywood Reporter are the ones who revealed along this, and they also list the rest of the cast as “Jonathan Banks as Black Mask, Steve Blum as Solomon Grundy, Lauren Cohan as Julia Pennyworth, Keith David as Tobias Whale, Zehra Fazal as Talia al Ghul & Nosferata, Jonathan Frakes as King Faraday & Boss Moxie, Kirby Howell-Baptiste as Barbara Minerva/Cheetah, Kelly Hu as Cheshire, Andrew Kishino as Mr. Yakuza & Domino 6, Eric Lopez as Domino 1, Jacqueline Obradors as La Dama, and Ron Yuan as Doctor Tzin.”

Finally, they also revealed the people making it! Greg Weisman wrote the script and Shinsuke Terasawa will be directing. Ethan Spaulding is listed as a producer with Colin A.B.V. Lewis doing the same. Finally, Sam Register is the executive producer.
