Which studio distributed The Lego Batman Movie?

Warner Bros. Pictures distributed The Lego Batman Movie.

The 2017 animated superhero comedy was a Warner Bros. production released through the studio’s theatrical distribution arm. It was a spin-off from The Lego Movie, focusing on Will Arnett’s Batman and his difficulty accepting teamwork, family, and emotional connection.

Warner Bros. Pictures also distributed the other theatrical films in the original Lego Movie cycle, including The Lego Movie, The Lego Ninjago Movie, and The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part. This shared distributor is one reason the films are commonly grouped as the Warner Bros. Lego franchise.

The Lego Batman Movie was directed by Chris McKay, who had co-directed The Lego Movie. Its score was composed by Lorne Balfe, not Mark Mothersbaugh, who scored the main Lego films. The movie premiered in January 2017 and opened in the United States on February 10, 2017, later earning about $312 million worldwide.
