As promised, HBO Max has unveiled the first official look at the Waltersin the Red Hood costume forTitans season 3. This is the first time Red Hood has ever been seen in live-action as it has only been seen in animation throughBatman: Under the Red Hoodand in video games,Batman: Arkham Knight. Even though Jason’s time as Robin has been relatively short, it’s exciting that his Red Hood character is finally being seen live.

While it’s not clear whether Jason will die and be resurrected before becoming Red Hood, like in the comics, this is another top-notch costume adaptation forTitans. Laura Jean Shannon, who designed several of the show’s superhero costumes, made a solid adaptation of Jason’s iconic costume. The addition of a real red hood is very reminiscent of its later design inBatman: Knights of Arkham. Since the announcement was made, it has been very clear how excited Walters is for Jason’s Season 3 arc. The biggest surprise is that they ended up letting Jason’s helmet have the classic white eyes.

Another big change to see in Titans Season 3 is that Barbara Gordon will be introduced to the series as the GCPD Commissioner. Additionally, a big Batman villain makes an appearance, as Jonathan Crane aka Scarecrow will also make his debut as the team moves to Gotham City. Since they’re going to be in Gotham on a more regular basis, it would make sense for other Batman-related characters to end up showing up to some extent. After the Season 2 finale, it was revealed that Damaris Lewis’s Blackfire will be a series regular next season. This likely means Starfire will be one of the characters who gets a lot of attention next season as the war with her sister escalates. While nothing more has been revealed, there will likely be more new stories and characters announced in the coming months.

Over the past two weeks, Walters has shared on social media his preparation to become Red Hood, including his extensive research. Given the attention paid to the evolution of Jason’s Red Hood,Titanscould set up a spin-off for Jason after the coming season. This is certainly something Walters would be ready for as he has expressed interest in a Red Riding Hood spin-off before. As production continues Titans season 3, more reveals and announcements are expected to arrive in the coming months after the Red Hood costume.
