Gary Oldman was recently asked by Yahoo about the advice he'd give to J.K. Simmons, who will follow in Oldman's footsteps as the next actor to play Commissioner Gordon in Zack Snyder's Justice League Part One. Said Oldman, "The thing you’ve just got to get used to with Gordon is he’s a really sound detective, first of all. And he’s really incorruptible, which is a kind of wonderful quality to play and sort of, like, true blue. He’s like a Watson, oddly. He’s sort of like Watson to Sherlock, is Gordon to Batman."
At the moment, the DCEU news cycle is still firmly entrenched in the Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice circuit, even though Wonder Woman, Justice League Part One and Suicide Squad (reshoots) are all filming right now. As such, little is known about what role Gordon will play in Justice League. Could this actually serves as a small victory for Warner Bros. as they can use the attention currently being given to Dawn of Justice as a means to keep details on thier other projects wrapped in secrecy? So far, there's been lots of conjecture and hearsay about the future of DC Films but nothing in the way of concrete facts.
