Crisis on Infinite Earths EP Discusses Kevin Conroy’s Final Batman Scene

Butch Lukic, an executive producer who worked on the animated Justice League: Crisis on Infinite Earths movies, is opening up about Kevin Conroy ’s final Batman performance.

Justice League: Crisis on Infinite Earths – Part Three posthumously features the final performance of Kevin Conroy as Batman. Conroy famously voiced the character in Batman: The Animated Series and numerous DC projects following that before he passed away in November 2022.

“Now fully revealed as the ultimate threat to existence, the Anti-Monitor wages an unrelenting attack on the surviving Earths that struggle for survival in a pocket universe,” the synopsis for  Justice League: Crisis on Infinite Earths – Part Three reads. “One by one, these worlds and all their inhabitants are vaporized! On the planets that remain, even time itself is shattered, and heroes from the past join the Justice League and their rag-tag allies against the epitome of evil. But as they make their last stand, will the sacrifice of the superheroes be enough to save us all?”

What did Butch Lukic say about Kevin Conroy’s final Batman performance?

Speaking with ComingSoon in an exclusive interview , Lukic discussed what it was like working on that Justice League: Crisis on Infinite Earth – Part Three scene featuring Conroy’s Dark Knight.

“The thing is, we just were planning to do that scene and, obviously, a sequence with Joker and Batman,” he said. “I figured fighting on the rooftop would do it. Plus, it helps that the antimatter waves are approaching, but it’s just to show fans that period again. Intentionally, we weren’t planning — obviously, for the film, it was intended to be the end. We didn’t know at the time [that it was Conroy’s final performance] when we were recording with Kevin. You know, we were joking around with him, ‘This is where we kill Batman off, ha ha ha.’ He laughed, too, knowing that it was just for the film, big deal. Sadly it became [Conroy’s] final performance, unfortunately.”

Justice League: Crisis on Infinite Earth – Part Three is available to purchase on digital streaming services such as Apple TV+, Amazon Prime Video, Vudu, and more. The first two movies are currently streaming on Max.
