The show, which premiered on streaming service DC Universe, is based on the DC Comics team Teen Titans.

It features actor Brenton Thwaites as Dick Grayson aka Robin, the leader of the Titans, alongside Anna Diop as Starfire, Teagan Croft as Raven and Ryan Potter as Beast Boy. 

Glen, best known for playing mercenary knight Jorah Mormont on "Game of Thrones", will portray an older version of Wayne, the alter ego of superhero character Batman, according to Deadline.

"After decades of fighting crime as Batman, billionaire Bruce Wayne is just as driven to protect Gotham from evil as he was in his prime. Needing to reconcile his relationship with Dick Grayson, the duo hope to forge a new dynamic as Bruce tries to help his former sidekick and the Titans achieve success," reads the description.

The 57-year-old Scottish actor will have a recurring role.

The show's sophomore run will also feature Esai Morales as Deathstroke, and newcomer Joshua Orpin as Superboy.

The season two of "Titans" will premiere on DC Universe later this year. 

Meanwhile, 'Game of Thrones' may be nearing its end, but creator George RR Martin has said he does not want the eighth season of the show to be the final one. 

The 70-year-old writer said: "I don't think it should be the final season. But here we are. It seems to me we just started last week. Has it been longer than that? The time has passed by in a blur. But it's exciting. I know it's an end, but it's not much of an end for me," Martin told The Hollywood Reporter.
