Bruce Wayne is getting yet another incarnation

Actor Iain Glen will take on the role of the wealthy Wayne on DC Universe's Titans, the show announced Thursday. The show follows young DC heroes as they come of age in a gritty take on the classic Teen Titans franchise. 

You might recognize Glen from his turn as Jorah Mormont from Game of Thrones, where he plays a knight who pledged his loyalty to Daenerys Targaryen. 

According to Deadline, it's not clear if he'll be wearing the bat suit at any point. 

In a statement, the show's executive producers describe Bruce Wayne like this: "After decades of fighting crime as Batman, billionaire Bruce Wayne is just as driven to protect Gotham from evil as he was in his prime. Needing to reconcile his relationship with Dick Grayson, the duo hope to forge a new dynamic as Bruce tries to help his former sidekick and the Titans achieve success."
