Batman's son Damian Wayne wants to be like his dad, and this Christmas, he'll get that gift.

In Prime Video's Merry Little Batman, directed by Regular Show's Mike Roth and written by Morgan Evans and Jase Ricci, the usually felon-decked city of Gotham is free of crime thanks to the caped crusader (voiced by Luke Wilson). So he's free to enjoy the holidays with his kid and new beard. But when the Justice League calls, he's off on a mission, beard and all, despite Alfred's (James Cromwell) feedback.

Meanwhile, Joker (David Hornsby) has his own Grinchy plans to steal Christmas, and with Batman out of the picture, it's up to Damian (Yonas Kibreab) to don a batsuit and get to work. 'Tis suddenly the season for Christmas movies, we guess.

How to watch: Merry Little Batman is streaming on Prime Video from Dec. 8.
