With only a little over two weeks to go before its premiere, a new promo for Titans has been released featuring its resident shapeshifter, Beast Boy, in all his glory.
Beast Boy, known by his human name Gar Logan, is shown transforming into a tiger and back again to the dismay of his friends, who look like they’ve just come to terms with the fact that nudity is just part of the process for the hero’s abilities.
“Tigers have always been my favorite,” Beast Boy explains in the clip, appearing unashamed. “Ever since I was a kid.”

His new teammate, Robin (Brenton Thwaites), replies with a less than enthusiastic, “Do you have to be naked?” Meanwhile, their fellow Titan, Starfire (Anna Diop), stands by and giggles.
Titans is the first original series slated to premiere on the new DC Universe streaming service, which launched on Sept. 15. Based on the popular Teen Titans Go! property, the show has been in the pipeline for the past four years. The series will begin with the team not yet fully formed, letting viewers see how Robin, Starfire, Beast Boy and Raven (played by newcomer Teagan Croft) first meet up and band together against evil outside forces.
