Batman: The Movie premiered

July 30, 1966


The Dynamic Duo made the jump from the TV scene to the movie scene – Batman, The Movie, opened in Austin, Texas on this date.

A follow up film was at one point considered. The film would have been released between seasons two and three, and would have been used to introduce Barbara Gordon/Bat Girl, and make use of a Batplane. Due to waning interest in the series during season two, which resulted in budget cuts, plans for a second film were scratched.
