Winston Duke is leaving the Marvel universe for the DC Universe to voice Batman in Spotify’s upcoming Batman Unburied podcast series. Harry Potter’s Jason Isaac will also lend his voice for the series.

The series, which marks one of the highest-profile scripted podcasts to date, is a psychological thriller that takes listeners deep into the mind of Bruce Wayne introducing a slew of dark twists and turns with a number of classic Batman Super-Villains.

When audiences meet Bruce Wayne he is a forensic pathologist, working in the bowels of Gotham Hospital and tasked with examining the victims of The Harvester, a gruesome serial killer preying on Gotham’s citizens. Not only will the Super-Hero be forced to face his own mental demons, but he will also have to overcome them in order to save the citizens of Gotham as his alter-ego Batman.

Duke will voice Bruce Wayne aka Batman and Isaac will voice Wayne’s loyal butler and right-hand man, Alfred.
