BATMANIME!! ANIMATRIX-Style DARK KNIGHT Direct-To-DVD Project Winging Toward Us??

I am – Hercules!!
Is Warner Bros. compiling an “Animatrix”-style Batman direct-to-DVD project to be released a few weeks prior to “The Dark Knight”? There’s a promotional-looking document floating about that suggests David Goyer (“Batman Begins”), Brian Azzarello (“Superman”) and Josh Olson (“A History of Violence”) are working on the project. Those names sound a little random to just comprise somebody’s wish list. Text on the document:

Set in the period between BATMAN BEGINS and THE DARK KNIGHT, this brand new adventure follows BATMAN as he unravels a mystery over six original stories done in the style of Japanese Anime. Each of the six original stories has been written by a highly respected screenwriter or comic book creator. The talent includes Academy Award nominee Josh Olsen (The History of Violence), screenwriter of the BLADE films and BATMAN BEGINS David Goyer, and famed comic book writer Brian Azzarello, among others. The Batman Anime DVD is viewed as a perfect companion piece to BATMAN BEGINS and THE DARK KNIGHT. The original stories introduce a number of classic characters from the DC Comics BATMAN universe as well as following up on characters and storylines that were introduced in BATMAN BEGINS.
