Batman is having his own Lego film!

Chris McKay is directing the movie from a script being written by author-screenwriter Seth Grahame-Smith, The Hollywood Reporter reported.

McKay, who supervised animation on this year's box-office hit "The Lego Movie," was initially set to direct "Lego Movie 2," but the sequel is being pushed back.

Just after "The Lego Movie" opened in February, Warner Bros. announced that it had scheduled a May 26, 2017 release for its sequel, and screenwriters Jared Stern and Michelle Morgan had been tapped to pen the script, according to Variety.

However, Warner Bros. is also eyeing a 2017 release for the "Lego Batman" spinoff, and the film studio can even set it on the original date for "Lego Movie 2," THR noted.

McKay directed Adult Swim's stop-motion pop culture parody show "Robot Chicken" from 2007 to 2011, so there is a great possibility that he will add the same cheeky sense of humor to the "Lego Batman" spinoff, Screenrant reported. "The Lego Movie" co-director Chris Miller once called McKay the "unheralded hero" of the franchise's first flick because of its exceptional work on the project.

Grahame-Smith, on the other hand, wrote the scripts for the 2012 horror comedy film "Dark Shadows" and the historical fantasy horror movie "Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter." These two flicks, however, did not perform well at the box office, and so Screenrant speculated that Grahame-Smith will not end up being the sole writer of the "Lego Batman" screenplay.

Will Arnett, who mimicked Christian Bale's Batman basso profundo voice, will return to lend his pipes to the Caped Crusader.

Roy Lee and Dan Lin are returning as producers along with "The Lego Movie" directors Phil Lord and Christopher Miller.

Aside from "Lego Movie 2" and "Batman Lego" spinoff film, Warner Bros. is also releasing "Ninjago," based on the Lego characters, in 2016. Lin, Lee, Miller and Lord are also producing with Charlie Bean directing.
