Based on the Cartoon Network animated television series Teen Titans Go!, it was produced by Warner Bros.

It features the voices of Greg Cipes, Scott Menville, Khary Payton, Tara Strong, and Hynden Walch, reprising their respective roles from the series, while Will Arnett and Kristen Bell join the cast.

Taking place during the events of the fifth season of the television series, the film follows the Teen Titans, who attempt to have a movie made about them in Hollywood while dealing with supervillain Slade.

Warner Bros. Pictures first announced the film in September 2017 with the series' voice cast set to reprise their roles.

They criticize the Titans for their childish behavior and inability to take their positions as superheroes seriously, raising the fact that they do not have a feature-length film to prove their legitimacy.

At the premiere of Batman Again, the Titans' leader Robin is mocked and laughed at by the audience after a misunderstanding leads him to assume that there is a film about him.

Upon arriving at Warner Bros. Studios, they encounter director Jade Wilson, who is responsible for all the superhero films.

On the final day of filming, Jade, who is revealed to be Slade in disguise, steals the crystal back from the Titans Tower.

They show their homemade movie to remind him that he is the hero of the Titans, causing Robin to turn back to normal.

The team uses their rap song to defeat Slade and destroy the crystal, snapping the other heroes and the rest of the world out of their trance.

[16][17][18] In March 2018, it was announced that musicians Lil Yachty and Halsey were part of the cast, as Green Lantern and Wonder Woman, respectively, with Nicolas Cage revealed as Superman the same day.

The film was set to make its network television premiere on TBS on September 12, 2020, but was removed from the schedule and replaced by an airing of Sherlock Gnomes for unknown reasons.

To the Movies distills the enduring appeal of its colorful characters into a charmingly light-hearted adventure whose wacky humor fuels its infectious fun – and belies a surprising level of intelligence.

[26] Laura Prudom of IGN gave the film a score of eight out of ten, calling it a "gleefully unhinged deconstruction of superhero tropes that isn't afraid to take aim at the rest of DC's cinematic roster".

"[30] Frank Scheck of The Hollywood Reporter wrote that "Considering the somberness that afflicts so many DC universe releases, the tongue-in-cheek, albeit admittedly juvenile humor of Teen Titans Go!

From the cute shots at Marvel Studios to the self-deprecating tone on the state of DC movies, you’ll leave the theater with a new set of superhero abs from laughing so hard.

"[32] Brandon Katz of The New York Observer said that the film is "a fun parody of sorts that gently skewers our superhero obsessed culture, and while there may be one too many gags thrown in there which can get a bit tiresome after awhile, it's an enjoyable movie for both kids and adults".

"[34] GameSpot's Chris Hayner, while finding fault with what he deemed excessive toilet humor and some dragging in the film, said that "In a superhero movie landscape where the world is constantly being destroyed by massive CGI abominations, this is a refreshing change... it doesn't forget how funny and exciting these types of movies can be".
