The new photos feature the best looks yet at Beast Boy (Ryan Potter), Raven (Teagan Croft), Dick Grayson/Robin (Brenton Thwaites), and Koriand’r/Starfire (Anna Diop). Fans had previously gotten a look at the characters as part of a promotional experience at San Diego Comic-Con last month as well as briefly in previously released trailer.
As announced during DC Universe’s inaugural livestream, the live-action Titans television series will make its debut on Friday, Oct. 12th. The series’ twelve-episode first season will release new episodes on a weekly basis, which will be available exclusively on the DC Universe app. Fans will also be able to get a sneak peek at Titans during a world premiere screening of the series hosted by Warner Bros. Television at the upcoming New York Comic-Con.
Titans follows several young heroes from across the DC Universe as they come of age in a dark, gritty take on the Teen Titans franchise. Dick Grayson and Rachel Roth, a young woman possessed by a strange darkness, get drawn into a conspiracy that could bring literal Hell on Earth. Along the way, they are joined by the hot-headed Starfire as well as Beast Boy — the group ultimately becoming not just a team of heroes, but a surrogate family as well.
“There’s a story to be told in the series.” executive producer Geoff Johns said of the series in an interview last month. “Dick Grayson is really trying to find a new place in the world — a new spot, a new life, just like all the other Titans are. They’re all lost, and they find one another to form this surrogate family.”
