As a long-time DC Universe enthusiast and someone who’s been through countless highs and lows in the superhero world, I can confidently say that the anticipation for Batman: Caped Crusader Season 2 is reaching an all-time high! Michelle C. Bonilla’s Instagram post has sent us fans into a frenzy, and the thought of Montoya returning to our screens is almost too much to bear.
2024 hasn’t seen an abundance of new superhero films or TV shows due to the Hollywood strikes affecting Marvel Cinematic Universe projects and James Gunn preparing the launch of DC Universe. However, it hasn’t been a complete desert, and “Batman: Caped Crusader,” a fantastic animated series, has undoubtedly stood out. The initial 10 episodes of this gripping show were made available to Amazon Prime subscribers in August, leaving fans eagerly anticipating more.
Thankfully, the countdown to Batman: Caped Crusader Season 2 is officially on, as Michelle C. Bonilla – who voices Gotham Detective Montoya – has shared that she has at least one script in hand for the sophomore run of the show. Check out her Instagram post below… which you’ll note hides both the name of the episode and the writer with some strategically placed writing utensils.

The enthusiasm in Michelle C. Bonilla’s post is clear, and she expresses a lot of appreciation for the material that is being cooked up by showrunner Bruce Timm and his team of writers. It’s cool to know that when she reads her lines on the page, it’s immediately clear to her what kind of energy to bring into the booth.
As for what is hiding behind that script’s cover page… we can only speculate right now. That being said, if one looks closely enough, one can spot the word “Thomas” (in the first line of the second paragraph underneath the pencil). This could perhaps mean that the episode in question will open with a flashback sequence involving young Bruce Wayne and his dad, but it’s difficult to read too far into that.
The first season of Batman: Caped Crusader ultimately puts a significant focus on the transformation of Gotham District Attorney Harvey Dent transforming into the villainous Two-Face (replete with acid being thrown in his face). The finale, however, offers a significant tease of what’s to come – namely, the arrival of the Joker. The final scene of “Savage Night” reveals that there is a new villain in town who is experimenting with a poison that causes people to laugh themselves to death. Montoya and the rest of the GCPD is going to have its hands full in Season 2.
While it’s no surprise that we’ll have Season 2 of “Batman: Caped Crusader,” what remains uncertain is when exactly we’ll be able to watch the new episodes. It’s unlikely it will air in 2024, but if the production team can finish the animation and voice recording by then, we might just catch a glimpse in 2025.
While we wait for the more of the animated Prime Video series, DC fans have a number of things to be excited about in the coming weeks/months. Not only is the release of Todd Phillips’ Joker: Folie à Deux right around the corner (October 4), but The Batman spinoff series The Penguin is premiering this month, and the DC Universe will be officially launching with the streaming debut of Creature Commandos for those of you with a Max subscription.
