'Titans': Ryan Potter Cast As Beast Boy In Live-Action Series For DC Digital Service

Titans follows a group of "soon-to-be superheroes from every corner of the DC Universe." Recruited by Dick Grayson (Brenton Thwaites), this fearless band of new heroes includes Starfire (Anna Diop), Raven (Teagan Croft), and of course, Garfield "Gar" Logan, aka Beast Boy.

As a child, Gar contracted a lethal disease on an African safari with his geneticist parents, only to experience some "bizarre side effects" after being treated with an experimental drug. In addition to his skin and hair turning permanently green, the wisecracking, fun-loving Beast Boy is able to transform himself into animals of any size.


At one point, Beast Boy went by the name "Changeling"... and rocked a mullet.

But how does Ryan Potter look in green skin?

Written by Greg Berlanti, Akiva Goldsman and Geoff Johns for Warner Bros TV, the series is slated to premiere in 2018 as part of the new DC-branded direct-to-consumer digital streaming service.

Meanwhile, Potter will reprise his role as the voice of Hiro Hamada in the upcoming Big Hero 6: The Series. Based on the popular animated feature, the Disney XD series picks up where the movie left off.
