The LEGO Batman Movie shares one major facet with its predecessor, 2014's The LEGO Movie: the love of cameos. Many, many cameos.
Warner Bros. has so far done a great job on keeping the lid on exactly who would be making an appearance, and which litany of famous faces would make up the film's vocal cast.
A few had already been revealed: Will Arnett returns as Batman, joined here by Michael Cera as Robin, Ralph Fiennes as Alfred, Rosario Dawson as Barbara Gordon/ Batgirl, Jenny Slate as Harley Quinn, Zach Galifianakis as the Joker, Mariah Carey as Gotham's Mayor, and Billy Dee Williams as Two-Face.
The film inevitably, however, features many more of DC's classic villains: now revealed to include Conan O'Brien's The Riddler, Jason Mantzoukas' Scarecrow, Zoe Kravitz's Catwoman, Doug Benson's Bane, Kate Micucci's Clayface, and Riki Lindhome's Poison Ivy. There's also the return of The LEGO Movie's Channing Tatum and Jonah Hill as Superman and Green Lantern, alongside Adam Devine's The Flash.
But that's not where the cast list ends, far from it. The LEGO Batman Movie also falls in line with the toy brand's love of intellectual property mash-ups by featuring cameos from a host of classic movie villains: prominently featuring Eddie Izzard's Voldemort, Seth Green's King Kong, Jemaine Clement's Sauron, the Gremlins, and the Wicked Witch.
Ellie Kemper also voices a character called Phyllis, whose role comes into play during the film's climactic moments.
The LEGO Batman Movie hits cinemas 10 February.
