‘Titans’ Season 3 Casts Jay Lycurgo as Tim Drake

"Titans" Season 3 has cast Jay Lycurgo in the recurring role of Tim Drake.

Live action Tim Drake! Finally!!!!!!

Interesting note

Drake is described as a streetwise kid who's managed to grow up on the toughest streets without losing his indelible belief in heroism. His easy-going demeanor is backed up by a near-genius mind, a natural detective with a perception of detail far beyond his years. Fans of the "Batman" comics will recall that Drake served with Batman as the third Robin.

Lycurgo is next set to appear in a supporting role in Matt Reeves' upcoming feature "The Batman," though if he will be playing Drake in the film as well remains unclear.

EDIT - Oh yes, he's the "I've made a terrible mistake" face painted kid after RBats beats the holy hell out of that one thug.

Tim Drake is a big Batman fanboy, and if they don't get this aspect right, they didn't get Tim Drake right.

Yeah he's not playing Tim Drake in The Batman, he appears to just be one of the face painted street guys Batman beats up

still cool casting, a little weird with Jason still around, can't wait to see how they turn Tim into a brutal hateful murderer like the rest of the cast

The show is too packed of Robins at just 3 seasons. So... does it means Jason will be gone? Or instantly back as Red Hood. Again, it is just much development for just a short time.

Really mowing through these Robins on this show, huh? I'll cry with laughter if Damian shows up if there's a season 4.

I love Jay's tweet. "I'm the best detective in Gotham." :3

The show almost gets some of the Batfamily stuff right... and to be completely honest, if it's the only way to see Bruce and his kids in live action, I'll take it. But it does have a lot of missteps with Dick and Jason. Particularly not excited to have Red Hood without Jason dying first. I hope they're better with Tim.

Appreciate the heads up!

I am so confused. This show is all over the place, but I appreciate that Tim exists even with that strange backstory.

I'm hoping we finally get a Judas Contract adaptation this season

I mean, that HAS to be coming, right? It's the quintessential Titans saga outside of Trigon.
