The Dark Knight (2016 Netflix Series)

The Dark Knight is a Netflix TV series based on DC Universe's best-selling comic book character, Batman. It is confirmed to have nothing to do with 2016's Batman v. Superman: Dawn Of Justice, nor relating to the storyline of DCU Cinematic Universe. It is a live action TV show aired on Netflix released in March 16th, 2016 and announced February 4th, 2015. Drew Goddard and Frank Darabont will be creating the show, hiring Wes Bentley for the role of Bruce Wayne. The show will have a dark tone and be rated TV-MA due to it's content and some violent scenes for audiences under age 17.
