Conan O’Brien joins cast of ‘Batman: The Dark Knight Returns, Part 2’

At New York Comic-Con over the weekend, it was announced that late night talk show hot Conan O'Brien (of TBS' Conan) has joined the cast of the upcoming Blu-ray release Batman: The Dark Knight Returns, Part 2. Who will Conan be providing the voice for? He'll be voicing talk show host David Endocrine — how fitting!

I've never read the Frank Miller graphic novel on which the movie is based, so I don't know anything about the character. I suspect it will be a small role, but it's still very cool that Conan can do the voice acting for the part. He's just getting more and more into geek and gaming culture. First video game reviews, now comic book movies. What's next?

Batman: The Dark Knight Returns, Part 2, releases on home video and digital download in 2013. If you want to learn more about Conan's character, David Endocrine, check out IGN's article that contains plot spoilers.
