News on which Teen Titans will be featured in the upcoming TNT live action adaption has just hit the Internet and electrified the show's fans.

A few months back it was announced the network was interested in adapting the comic book franchise, and it would seem things are coming along well. The title for the show has been pronounced to simply be 'The Titans'.

Casting for the pilot has recently begun and Nerdist has got the inside scoop on exactly which characters we will see in the series, or at least in the pilot.

According to the site, the pilot will feature:

"Nightwing - Dick Grayson is actually Robin in this iteration (at least at the start), but has left working alongside the Batman. Now a young adult, he is working as a detective in Boston."

"Barbara Gordon - Although never a member of any incarnation of the Teen Titans in the comics, she did have a long-standing romantic relationship with Dick Grayson, which makes her inclusion here make sense. In this version, she was once known as Batgirl, but now finds herself in a wheelchair. She's the team's resident computer hacker, reflecting the character's time as Oracle in the comics."

"Hawk and Dove - The original Hawk and Dove were brothers Don and Hank Hall. Each brother was gifted with powers from the Lord of Order and Chaos. Don died during the Crisis on Infinite Earths, and was replaced with Dawn Granger as the new Dove, and eventually started dating Hawk. This seems to be the version they're going with for the new series, as Hawk and Dove are set to be a romantic pairing."

"Raven - In the comics, it was Raven, daughter of the inter-dimensional demon Trigon, who brought the New Teen Titans together to fight her father. An empath as well as a teleporter, Raven always had to keep her emotions in check, or else she could accidentally unleash her demonic side. In the Geoff Johns' run of Teen Titans in the early 2000s, he gave her the name Rachel Roth, which is how she is referred to in this pilot script."

"Starfire - The alien princess Koriand'r from the planet Tamaran was one of the most popular characters introduced in the New Teen Titans comics of the '80s, as well as on the Teen Titans animated series from the early 2000's. She (as well as Raven) only appear as buttons at the very end of the episode, but considering her romance with Dick Grayson in the comics was a big part of it, expect some kind of love triangle with Nightwing and Barbara Gordon should the series go forward."

The iconic Cyborg and Beast Boy weren't reported to have appeared in the pilot but it doesn't mean that they can't show up later in the series.
