full length trailer of a film by Parthenon Productions in which Brian portrays the devious Jason Todd. BATMAN: BATTLE FOR THE COWL is a San Francisco made independent fan film short adaptation of the 2009 DC Comics "Battle for the Cowl" storyline. The film simplifies the story and tells it from a little bit more of a humanistic view. In the short film adaptation Batman is dead, Gotham has fallen into chaos, & there is a search for the dark knight's successor. Dick Grayson, the most logical choice, has refused to take up the cowl. Meanwhile, a new "Batman" has surfaced with brutal methods and appears to be taking matters into his own hands.
The film has already begun raising eyebrows with its two bold choices: 1) completely non-traditional casting & 2) the 'undefined' sexuality of the boy wonder, Tim Drake.
The SF Bay Area based production stars local talents: James Bailey (Dick Grayson), Aaron B.W. Collins (Tim Drake), Tiffany Liu (Barbara Gordon), Dawson Montoya (Damian Wayne), Brian J. Patterson (Jason Todd), Joseph Smith (Alfred Pennyworth), & Nathan Tucker (Harvey Dent/Two-Face).
The film features music by Gavin J. Salkeld, graphics by Matthew Moore, and some fight choreography by Ed Kahana of The Stunt People.
