Doom Patrol set photos offer new look at a comic book accurate Robotman

September 15, 2018 by Gary Collinson

A couple of weeks ago we got a look Elasti-Woman, Crazy Jane, Robotman and Negative Man on set filming DC Universe’s upcoming live-action Doom Patrol series, and now Just Jared has got its hands on more spy photos, this time offering a rather clear look at the metal misfit Robotman. The character is being portrayed on set by Riley Shanahan, with Brendan Fraser delivering the vocal performance as well as appearing in flashback scenes as a pre-accident Cliff Steele.

Doom Patrol is a re-imagining of one of DC’s most beloved group of outcast Super Heroes: Robotman, Negative Man, Elasti-Girl, and Crazy Jane, led by modern-day mad scientist Dr. Niles Caulder (The Chief). The Doom Patrol’s members each suffered horrible accidents that gave them superhuman abilities – but also left them scarred and disfigured. Traumatized and downtrodden, the team found purpose through The Chief, who brought them together to investigate the weirdest phenomena in existence — and to protect Earth from what they find. Part support group, part Super Hero team, the Doom Patrol is a band of super-powered freaks who fight for a world that wants nothing to do with them. Picking up after the events of fellow DC Universe series “Titans,” “Doom Patrol” will find these reluctant heroes in a place they never expected to be, called to action by none other than Cyborg, who comes to them with a mission hard to refuse, but with a warning that is hard to ignore: their lives will never, ever be the same.

Doom Patrol is slated to air on DC Universe in 2019 and features a cast that includes Timothy Dalton as The Chief, April Bowlby as Elasti-Woman, Diane Guerrero as Crazy Jane, Joivan Wade as Cyborg and Alan Tudyk as Mr. Nobody.
