Beloved Batman voice actor Kevin Conroy will still voice Bruce Wayne twice more despite the actor’s death in 2022, meaning his final appearance won’t come in Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League after all.

Batman is one of the most iconic heroes of all time. While the character has been portrayed by various actors for live-action adaptations, there is only one voice when it comes to animated series, video games, and more. A voice that many know and love in Kevin Conroy.

Conroy is best known for voicing the role of Bruce Wayne and Batman across various video games, animated series, and more. However, the actor’s death in 2022 sent shockwaves through the DC fanbase, with Joker voice actor Mark Hamill even stating he would struggle to return to voice the villain without Conroy opposite him.

In light of his death, fans are looking forward to hearing Conroy as Batman in what has been deemed one last time in the new video game, Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League. However, the game has been slammed on social media by fans after it was leaked that Conroy would not get a real send-off as the character.

However, it has just been revealed that Conroy’s voice as Batman will still be heard two more times.

IGN reported that he has two other posthumous performances coming up in Batman film and television. The first being in Bruce Timm’s Batman: Caped Crusader and the second being Justice League: Crisis on Infinite Earths, Part Three. 

While it is unclear if Conroy finished recording all dialogue for these parts, IGN did further confirm that Conroy did record some lines for these projects before his death.

As such, Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League will not be the final time fans hear Conroy take on the role of the masked crusader. 

However, future projects will be voiced by other actors but DC has yet to reveal who will be taking over the role of Bruce Wayne moving forward.
