To get Boyd Kirkland to stay on board for more episodes as one of the directors of Batman (1992), WB included in the deal to work on a direct-to-video (DVT) Batman movie. WB was motivated to do a DTV movie since they had plans to release a new Batman live-action movie, Batman & Robin (1997), and they decided to have an animated DTV movie to be released as a companion with the live action film. Kirkland asked Randy Rogel to write a script for the movie. Knowing that Bane would be featured in "Batman & Robin", Rogel and Kirkland devised a story with Bane as an unstoppable Terminator-like villain, along with a subplot exploring Dick Grayson and Barbara Gordon's romance. Somewhere in the middle of all that the creative team got called to a meeting with Warner Home Video and they said, the studio just signed Arnold Schwarzenegger to do the Batman movie and he's going to play Mr. Freeze, so that's who they wanted to be the villain to be in the animated DTV movie. The creative team told them they had already written the movie with Bane to which one of the guys from Warner asked, "Well can't you just use your word processor, and where it says 'Bane' just switch it with 'Mr. Freeze'? Rogel responded by telling the guys at Warner it doesn't work that way since Bane and Mr. Freeze are two completely different villains and just agreed to write a completely different script with Mr. Freeze as the movie's villain.
