Dans la lignée de l’event Forever Evil orchestré par Geoff Johns et David Finch, DC Comics continue de mettre en avant les super-vilains de son univers en leur consacrant un documentaire.
Warner Bros. Home Entertainment et DC Entertainment ont dévoilé aujourd’hui au San Diego Comic-Con la bande-annonce de Necessary Evil : Super-Villains of DC Comics, dont la sortie en DVD/Blu-Ray Zone 1 est prévue pour le 25 octobre 2013.
Le commentaire du long-métrage a été confié à un habitué du côté obscur, le légendaire Christopher Lee.
Le communiqué officiel :
[quote]The Joker, Bane, Deathstroke, Darkseid and Lex Luthor – the scariest and most menacing villains in DC Comics’ universe – take center stage in a brand new full-length documentary from Warner Bros. Home Entertainment (WBHE) and DC Entertainment (DCE). The joint announcement was made today by WBHE and DCE.
Christopher Lee, who has played the villain more times than almost any other actor, will provide his unique voice as narrator. His roles in more than 200 films include star turns as Dracula, the Mummy and Frankenstein’s monster in Hammer horror classics, Count Dooku in Star Wars, and Saruman in The Lord of the Rings trilogy and The Hobbit films.
In this new documentary film, the malevolent, sometimes charismatic figures from DC Comics’ hallowed rogues’ gallery will be explored in depth, featuring interviews with the famed creators, storytellers and those who have crafted the personalities and profiles of many of the most notorious villains in comic book history.
