Danny Cannon will direct and executive produce the pilot for Fox’s highly anticipated
Gotham pilot from Warner Bros. TV and
The Mentalist creator Bruno Heller. Cannon has previously directed the pilots for the
CSI franchise, as well as the CW’s
Nikita and has also helmed the likes of the 1995 Sylvester Stallone
Judge Dredd flick and
I Still Know What You Did Last Summer. The show will focus on a young James Gordon as he works his way up the ranks of the GCPD, and will apparently feature several of Batman's classic villains. As for the Dark Knight himself, the recent news that a casting call went out for a young Bruce Wayne pretty much rules out any caped crusading. Keep an eye on CBM for more updates very soon.
