Yesterday, Warner Bros. debuted posters for the characters of Benny (Charlie Day) and Vitruvius (Morgan Freeman) for their upcoming animated feature “The LEGO Movie.” As promised, the studio is bringing in their heavy hitters by delivering one-sheets of Batman (Will Arnett) and Lord Business (Will Ferrell.) Batman will be among one of many superheroes featured in the film. Can the combined might of the residents of this LEGO world stop the efforts of the villain known only as Lord Business? Check these bad boys out!
