What do we know about Batman Azteca: Choque de Imperios?
Announced by Warner Bros. Animation, Anima, and Chatrone in June 2022, Batman Azteca: Choque de Imperios is directed by Juan Meza-León. José C. García de Letona, Aaron D. Berger, Carina Schulze, and Fernando De Fuentes serve as producers on the film, while Sam Register and Tomás Yankelevich are executive producers.
“In the time of the Aztec Empire, Yohualli Coatl – a young Aztec boy – experiences tragedy when his father and village leader, Toltecatzin, is murdered by Spanish Conquistadors,” the synopsis reads. “Yohualli escapes to Tenochtitlan to warn King Moctezuma and his high priest, Yoka, of imminent danger. Using the temple of Tzinacan, the bat god, as a lair, Yohualli trains with his mentor and assistant, Acatzin, developing equipment and weaponry to confront the Spaniard invasion, protect Moctezuma’s temple, and avenge his father’s death.”
Horacio García Rojas (Narcos: Mexico, Cry Macho) is voicing Yohualli in Batman Azteca: Choque de Imperios, while Omar Chaparro (Pokémon: Detective Pikachu, Overboard) voices Yoka (The Joker) and Álvaro Morte (Money Heist, The Wheel of Time) voices Hernán Cortés (Two-Face). Additional voice casting has not been announced at this time.
Batman Azteca: Choque de Imperios does not yet have an official release date from HBO Max Latin America.
