"The word you are going to keep hearing is authenticity. Even though it's a fantastical story," Warner Bros. executive Peter Girardi said of the film at Annecy International Animation Film Festival last year (H/T ). "We have done different interpretations o💟f Batman in the past, specifically in Japan, so it's a format we were familiar with. But it's a whole new story, set in that [specific] time. It wasn't about saying: 'Oh, he has a shark repel𝕴lent now.'"
