The upcoming animated film, directed by "Batman: The Killing Joke" helmer Sam Liu, centers on the adventures of Batman and Nightwing as they work with supervillain Harley Quinn to be able to prevent Poison Ivy and the Floronic Man from changing people into plants.
Batman will take his chances with Harley since she is known to be Poison Ivy's constant partner-in-crime. However, Batman must muster enough patience to work with Harley since the supervillain is known to be very unpredictable and hard to trust. The screenplay is written by Bruce Timm and Jim Krieg.
