Earlier today, DC Comics’ streaming service, DC Universe, has announced that they’ll be developing a live-action drama series based on the team known as The Doom Patrol. But they won’t be the only ones featured in the ensemble series, as the official synopsis revealed that both Cyborg and Crazy Jane will be making an appearance in the show.

The official synopsis of the series so far reads like this:

“Doom Patrol is a re-imagining of one of DC’s most beloved group of outcast Super Heroes: Robotman, Negative Man, Elasti-Girl and Crazy Jane, led by modern-day mad scientist Dr Niles Caulder (The Chief). The Doom Patrol’s members each suffered horrible accidents that gave them superhuman abilities — but also left them scarred and disfigured. Traumatized and downtrodden, the team found purpose through The Chief, who brought them together to investigate the weirdest phenomena in existence — and to protect Earth from what they find. Part support group, part Super Hero team, the Doom Patrol is a band of super-powered freaks who fight for a world that wants nothing to do with them. Picking up after the events of Titans, Doom Patrol will find these reluctant heroes in a place they never expected to be, called to action by none other than Cyborg, who comes to them with a mission hard to refuse, but with a warning that is hard to ignore: their lives will never, ever be the same.”

As mentioned in the synopsis, Doom Patrol will take place after Titans, where they’ll be introduced in the episode “Doom Patrol”,

The series will be written by Greg Berlanti – he’ll also serve as executive producer of the show –, Geoff Johns, and Jeremy Carver.
