Ever since it was announced that DC was working on a live action Teen Titans series we’ve been patiently waiting for more news! Well, late last night it was revealed that the pilot is scheduled to be filmed!
After getting questioned about the Teen Titans series by a fan on Twitter, the Chief Creative Officer of DC Entertainment Geoff Johns had an answer! The fan asked for an update on the series. To which Johns replied that the pilot will be shot next year. He also seems just as excited to get Nightwing on the air as much as we are to see it.

Back in September it was revealed that a pilot was nearing order from TNT for a series called Titans to be based on the comic book series Teen Titans.
The television series will focus on the group of young superheroes led by Dick Grayson. In it he will become Nightwing to lead Starfire, Raven, and the other Teen Titans which have yet to be named.
Still no word on who will play the lead role of Nightwing but Steven McQueen (of The Vampire Diaries) certainly isn’t keeping it a secret he wants the role. From the look of the responses to Johns’ tweet, fans are already looking forward to shipping Nightwing and Starfire. So the casting directors better not disappoint!
