Batman gets a new show titled 'Beware the Batman'

Cartoon Network is adding a new Batman show to its DC Nation line-up later this year.  Titled Beware the Batman, the show will be entirely CG and will bring the Caped Crusader into new and interesting territory. 

Here's the official synopsis:
"A cool, new take on the classic Dark Knight franchise, Beware the Batman incorporates Batman's core characters with a rogues gallery of new villains not previously seen in animated form. Along with backup from ex-secret agent Alfred and lethal swordstress Katana, the Dark Knight faces the twisted machinations of Gotham City's criminal underworld led by the likes of Anarky, Professor Pyg, Mister Toad and Magpie. Produced by Warner Bros. Animation, this action-packed detective thriller deftly redefines what we have come to know as a "Batman show." Featuring cutting-edge CGI visuals to match the intricate twists and turns of the narrative, Batman steps out of the shadows and into the spotlight for an entirely new generation of fans. With WBA's Sam Register executive producing, and Batman Beyond's Glen Murakami and Scooby-Doo! Mystery Incorporated's Mitch Watson producing, Beware the Batman, based on characters from DC Comics, is coming soon to Cartoon Network!"
This is definitely a new spin on the character and some interesting villain choices. Only time will tell if this show will sink or swim but if recent history teaches us anything it'll only be about 3 seasons before this show ends and we get yet another incarnation of Batman (Batman: The Animated Series 1992-1995, Batman Beyond 1999-2001, The Batman 2004-2008. The Brave and the Bold 2008-2011). To tease it's fans, Cartoon Network has released a promo poster that shows us what Batman will look like.
