Early drafts of Tim Burton's 1989 Batman included Robin, but his scenes were cut before filming began. Included in last year's special edition release of Batman was this extra featuring the storyboarded sequence that introduced the character.
What's particularly cool about this extra is that it features the voices of Kevin Conroy as Batman and Mark Hamill as the Joker, both reprising roles they began in Batman: The Animated Series in 1992, and continuing through last spring's Justice League Unlimited. Robvin is voiced by Jason hillhouse, who has hosted roundtable interviews in recent DVD releases of the various DC animated series.
I can see why they cut it, but it's very cool to watch.
