== Plot ==
  +
[[Bruce Wayne]] is attending an evening party where he meets [[Selina Kyle]] and his childhood friend and renowned brain surgeon [[Thomas Elliot]], until he receives an alert from [[Alfred Pennyworth|Alfred]] about a child kidnapping from [[Bane]]. After a brief fight, Batman is confronted by [[Lady Shiva]] who tells him an unknown intruder has used the [[Lazarus Pit]]
  +
<nowiki> </nowiki>and asks for his assistance in identifying them. Batman rescues the
  +
child but Catwoman steals the ransom money. As Batman swings through Gotham City
  +
<nowiki> </nowiki>in pursuit of her, a mysterious villain shoots his grapple line and he
  +
falls to the ground, fracturing his skull. He is nearly killed by a
  +
group of nearby criminals until he is saved by Catwoman and [[Batgirl]]. Catwoman delivers the ransom money to [[Poison Ivy]], who is controlling her through a hypnotic kiss.
  +
  +
Alfred summons Thomas Elliot to remove skull fragments from
  +
Bruce's brain. Batman recovers and pays a trip to Blackgate Prison to
  +
interrogate Bane on the whereabouts of the money. Bane eventually
  +
escapes, and Batman strikes a deal with [[Amanda Waller]],
  +
<nowiki> </nowiki>who allows Bane's escape so Batman can track him. Bane leads Batman to
  +
Poison Ivy's now abandoned greenhouse where Catwoman is. Waller captures
  +
<nowiki> </nowiki>Bane and returns him to prison.
  +
  +
Catwoman, seeking retaliation for Ivy's manipulation, offers
  +
information on her whereabouts to Batman in exchange for a kiss and a
  +
tenuous romance blooms between them. Batman and Catwoman follow Poison
  +
Ivy to [[Metropolis]]. Batman finds [[Lex Luthor]], now a probationary member of the [[Justice League]],
  +
<nowiki> </nowiki>and asks for information on a delivery list of an ethylene compound to
  +
track down Ivy's location. There they find Ivy has taken control of [[Superman]]
  +
<nowiki> </nowiki>and she commands the Man of Steel to kill Batman and Catwoman. Batman
  +
observes that Superman is subconsciously resisting Ivy's influence,
  +
holding back on his attempts to kill both of them. Using knuckledusters made from Kryptonite, Batman stalls Superman while Catwoman lets [[Lois Lane]] fall from the [[Daily Planet]]
  +
<nowiki> </nowiki>building. Superman breaks free of Ivy's control to save Lois. Batman,
  +
Superman, and Catwoman work together to capture Ivy, who reveals ( after Catwoman physically threatens to damage her luscious red hair ) that
  +
she was being manipulated by a mysterious foe called [[Edward Nygma|Hush]]. Superman then concludes their business and flies away carrying Poison Ivy to prison by carrying her at bend of her knees and lower back. Unbeknownst to Batman and Catwoman they're observed by Hush on an adjacent rooftop and is now aware of their relationship.
  +
  +
Bruce Wayne goes on a date with Selina, who is unaware of the
  +
former's identity as Batman, much to the encouragement of his family.
  +
The two, along with Thomas Elliot, attend an opera when [[Harley Quinn]] arrives and attempts to kill Bruce. In the ensuing struggle, Dr. Elliot is apparently shot dead by the [[Joker]]. An enraged Batman violently beats Joker who claims that he is innocent, and he is stopped short of killing him by [[James Gordon]]. Bruce attends Elliot's funeral and deduces Joker's innocence as well that Hush must know his secret identity.
  +
  +
After foiling a robbery by the [[Riddler]],
  +
<nowiki> </nowiki>Batman chases after Hush but fails to catch him. Afraid for her safety,
  +
<nowiki> </nowiki>Batman asks Selina to leave Gotham so she doesn't fall victim to Hush,
  +
who vowed to murder everyone close to him. He eventually decides to
  +
trust Catwoman and reveals his identity to her, and the two become a
  +
romantic crime-fighting couple. Later, Batman investigates the office of
  +
<nowiki> </nowiki>Thomas Elliot and discovers one of his patients was someone called Arthur Wynne
  +
<nowiki> </nowiki>who sought an operation for an inoperable brain tumor. [[Nightwing]] and
  +
Catwoman investigate a graveyard break-in and are attacked by the [[Scarecrow]].
  +
<nowiki> </nowiki>Nightwing is overpowered by the fear toxin but Catwoman defeats
  +
Scarecrow and gets Nightwing to safety. However, she is captured by Hush
  +
<nowiki> </nowiki>after Nightwing is taken back to the Bat Cave for medical treatment.
  +
  +
At [[Arkham Asylum]],
  +
<nowiki> </nowiki>Batman interrogates Riddler who reveals that he has been Arthur Wynne
  +
as well as Hush. He had used a Lazarus Pit to cure himself of his brain
  +
tumor and during his time in the pit, he figured out Batman's identity
  +
as Bruce Wayne and formed a plan involving several villains to destroy
  +
both the personal life and the crime-fighting career of Batman. Batman
  +
deduces that Riddler is actually [[Clayface]]
  +
<nowiki> </nowiki>mimicking his identity while the latter communicated via satellite.
  +
After defeating Clayface, Batman finds Riddler's location and the two (along with Catwoman)
  +
engage in a final confrontation. Riddler is nearly killed but is saved
  +
by Batman with his grapnel. However, a desperate Catwoman cuts the line to save Batman's life and
  +
Riddler falls to his death.
  +
  +
In the aftermath, Batman and Catwoman decide to go their separate
  +
<nowiki> </nowiki>ways after a fierce disagreement over Batman's ethical code. Both of
  +
them acknowledge that while their relationship cannot happen presently,
  +
it may someday.

Template:Film Templete (Improvement)

Batman: Hush is the fourteenth installment in the DC Animated Movie Universe. It was released on Digital July 20, 2019 and 4K Ultra HD, BLU-RAY, and DVD on August 6, 2019. Voice cast for the film was leaked on 2 January revealing it to be part of the universe.[1], While it is the fourth Batman film in the DCAMU, the film is not a sequel to Batman: Bad Blood, but instead a sequel to Reign Of The Supermen.

Synopsis

The mysterious villain known as Hush is determined to destroy both the crime-fighting career and personal life of Batman, which is already complicated by his relationship with Catwoman.

Plot

Bruce Wayne is attending an evening party where he meets Selina Kyle and his childhood friend and renowned brain surgeon Thomas Elliot, until he receives an alert from Alfred about a child kidnapping from Bane. After a brief fight, Batman is confronted by Lady Shiva who tells him an unknown intruder has used the Lazarus Pit and asks for his assistance in identifying them. Batman rescues the child but Catwoman steals the ransom money. As Batman swings through Gotham City in pursuit of her, a mysterious villain shoots his grapple line and he falls to the ground, fracturing his skull. He is nearly killed by a group of nearby criminals until he is saved by Catwoman and Batgirl. Catwoman delivers the ransom money to Poison Ivy, who is controlling her through a hypnotic kiss.

Alfred summons Thomas Elliot to remove skull fragments from Bruce's brain. Batman recovers and pays a trip to Blackgate Prison to interrogate Bane on the whereabouts of the money. Bane eventually escapes, and Batman strikes a deal with Amanda Waller, who allows Bane's escape so Batman can track him. Bane leads Batman to Poison Ivy's now abandoned greenhouse where Catwoman is. Waller captures Bane and returns him to prison.

Catwoman, seeking retaliation for Ivy's manipulation, offers information on her whereabouts to Batman in exchange for a kiss and a tenuous romance blooms between them. Batman and Catwoman follow Poison Ivy to Metropolis. Batman finds Lex Luthor, now a probationary member of the Justice League, and asks for information on a delivery list of an ethylene compound to track down Ivy's location. There they find Ivy has taken control of Superman and she commands the Man of Steel to kill Batman and Catwoman. Batman observes that Superman is subconsciously resisting Ivy's influence, holding back on his attempts to kill both of them. Using knuckledusters made from Kryptonite, Batman stalls Superman while Catwoman lets Lois Lane fall from the Daily Planet building. Superman breaks free of Ivy's control to save Lois. Batman, Superman, and Catwoman work together to capture Ivy, who reveals ( after Catwoman physically threatens to damage her luscious red hair ) that she was being manipulated by a mysterious foe called Hush. Superman then concludes their business and flies away carrying Poison Ivy to prison by carrying her at bend of her knees and lower back. Unbeknownst to Batman and Catwoman they're observed by Hush on an adjacent rooftop and is now aware of their relationship.

Bruce Wayne goes on a date with Selina, who is unaware of the former's identity as Batman, much to the encouragement of his family. The two, along with Thomas Elliot, attend an opera when Harley Quinn arrives and attempts to kill Bruce. In the ensuing struggle, Dr. Elliot is apparently shot dead by the Joker. An enraged Batman violently beats Joker who claims that he is innocent, and he is stopped short of killing him by James Gordon. Bruce attends Elliot's funeral and deduces Joker's innocence as well that Hush must know his secret identity.

After foiling a robbery by the Riddler, Batman chases after Hush but fails to catch him. Afraid for her safety, Batman asks Selina to leave Gotham so she doesn't fall victim to Hush, who vowed to murder everyone close to him. He eventually decides to trust Catwoman and reveals his identity to her, and the two become a romantic crime-fighting couple. Later, Batman investigates the office of Thomas Elliot and discovers one of his patients was someone called Arthur Wynne who sought an operation for an inoperable brain tumor. Nightwing and Catwoman investigate a graveyard break-in and are attacked by the Scarecrow. Nightwing is overpowered by the fear toxin but Catwoman defeats Scarecrow and gets Nightwing to safety. However, she is captured by Hush after Nightwing is taken back to the Bat Cave for medical treatment.

At Arkham Asylum, Batman interrogates Riddler who reveals that he has been Arthur Wynne as well as Hush. He had used a Lazarus Pit to cure himself of his brain tumor and during his time in the pit, he figured out Batman's identity as Bruce Wayne and formed a plan involving several villains to destroy both the personal life and the crime-fighting career of Batman. Batman deduces that Riddler is actually Clayface mimicking his identity while the latter communicated via satellite. After defeating Clayface, Batman finds Riddler's location and the two (along with Catwoman) engage in a final confrontation. Riddler is nearly killed but is saved by Batman with his grapnel. However, a desperate Catwoman cuts the line to save Batman's life and Riddler falls to his death.

In the aftermath, Batman and Catwoman decide to go their separate ways after a fierce disagreement over Batman's ethical code. Both of them acknowledge that while their relationship cannot happen presently, it may someday.
