The original Batman film franchise is getting a modern makeover, at least where their art is concerned. The digital HD versions of the four original Batman films -- 1989's "Batman," 1992's "Batman Returns," 1995's "Batman Forever" and 1997's "Batman and Robin" -- will soon show off all-new box art, each one featuring head shots of the Caped Crusader and, in some cases, the film's villains. The franchise was steered by two directors: Tim Burton for the first two and Joel Schumacher for the latter pair.

The announcement comes on the eve of the release of the latest Batman film, "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice," on digital HD. The "Ultimate Edition" of the film arrives in stores on June 28 and features a new, extended cut of the film along with a mature-audiences-only rating.
