Kevin Conroy's Final Role Unveiled in New Devil May Cry Anime Trailer

Let the demon hunting begin. Netflix is bringing the iconic video game series Devil May Cry to life with a new anime adaptation, and fans have been treated to a tantalizing trailer that promises an exciting journey into the demon-filled world. Adding to the excitement, the late legendary voice actor Kevin Conroy will posthumously star in this eagerly anticipated series.

Conroy, celebrated for his iconic portrayal of Bruce Wayne and Batman in numerous animated projects, takes on the role of VP Baines in Devil May Cry. His voice can be heard in a gripping voiceover at the beginning of the trailer, adding a layer of depth and emotion to the series. Conroy's performance was recently praised in Justice League: Crisis on Infinite Earths: Part 3, and it's a testament to his enduring talent that fans will get another chance to hear his voice following his passing in November 2022 at the age of 66.

According to the official synopsis provided by Netflix, “Sinister forces are at play to open the portal between the human and demon realms. In the middle of it all is Dante, an orphaned demon-hunter-for-hire, unaware that the fate of both worlds hangs around his neck.”

Studio Mir, the acclaimed South Korean studio behind hits like The Legend of Korra and X-Men ‘97, will handle production duties for Devil May Cry. Fans can mark their calendars for the series' release on Netflix on April 3, 2025, ready to dive into the thrilling world of demon hunting with Dante at the helm.
