Which actor voices Batman in the Lego Movie franchise?

Will Arnett voices Batman in The Lego Movie franchise. His performance turns the character into a hilariously self-serious parody while still preserving Batman’s familiar bravado, gadgets, and obsession with fighting crime alone.

Arnett first played Lego Batman in The Lego Movie, where Batman is one of several recognizable characters sharing the film’s imaginative construction-brick universe. The character became popular enough to receive his own 2017 spin-off, The Lego Batman Movie, and Arnett returned for that film and for The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part.

This version of Batman is distinct from the live-action portrayals by Christian Bale and Ben Affleck, and from Kevin Conroy’s celebrated voice performance in animated television and video games. Arnett’s Batman is deliberately comic, frequently singing about himself and treating ordinary emotional problems as if they were epic supervillain battles.

Arnett is also known for Arrested Development, where he played Gob Bluth. His deep, dramatic delivery helped make Lego Batman one of the franchise’s defining characters.
