The trailer stars many familiar faces from the comics including Cat Woman, Robin, Nightwing and his most trusted butler, Alfred – and his super cute, tiny man bun. However, it seems like everyone of his friends has gone through some sort of drastic change in how they look.

Aside from the usual villains – Joker and Harley Quinn – the Bats will also have to face other menacing foes like Penguin, Two-Face and Poison Ivy. Interestingly enough, Deathstroke the Terminator and Gorilla Grodd also were briefly featured in the trailer even though they were not traditionally associated with Batman as one of his main villains, Nerdist reported.
