Justice League: Crisis on Infinite Earths – Part One surprised some fans by having relatively few cameos and crossovers — but it seems likely the second and third parts of the animated trilogy will reverse that course. In the recently-released teaser for Part Two, Warner Bros. Home Entertainment revealed a first look at Terry McGinnis (Batman Beyond), who will join the battle with the Anti-Monitor in the second part of the series. And while the first movie didn’t have nearly as many “red sky crossovers” as the comics (or the 2019/2020 Arrowverse version), it certainly left plenty of room for that kind of thing to happen. According to the movie’s producers, it is something that certainly crossed their minds while they were breaking the story.

Speaking with executive producers Jim Krieg, Butch Lukic, and Jeff Wamester, ComicBook.com brought the question to the table. Is it possible there will be more familiar worlds and faces showing up in the next two parts?
“Well, you’ve only seen one movie — that’s all we can say,” teased Jim Krieg.
“That was discussed early on, as far as bringing certain animated universes in,” added Butch Lukic. “We’ll see if we did or didn’t.”
