The first trailer for the highly-anticipated live-action Teen Titans adaptation coming to the DC Universe streaming platform has debuted and fans are having mixed reactions to the more mature tone of the series compared to more lighthearted adventures of the superheroes.
Ahead of the trailer debut, fans knew that Titans would take a more "grounded" approach to the characters, yet they didn't quite comprehend just how violent or graphic the series would be. The first trailer depicts Robin proclaiming, "F-ck Batman," to a group of threatened thugs while proceeding to give them potentially fatal injuries.
For better or worse, the films in the DC Extended Universe have embraced a similar darkness, though Suicide Squad and Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice managed to toe the line and maintain PG-13 ratings. DC Comics TV series, like Supergirl and The Flash, have stayed much more family-friendly and have earned passionate followings.
