GOTHAM: Get A New Look At The Female 'Firefly' With This Image From Tonight's Episode
She was briefly glimpsed in the promo, but now this still from tonight's episode of Gotham gives us a much better look at the full costume sported by Michelle Veintimilla, who'll be playing a female incarnation of Firefly, Bridget Pike. Take a look...
Here's what Not Cool actress Michelle Veintimilla had to say to TV Insider about finding out she'd been cast as a female take on the DC baddie.
“I actually had no idea I would ultimately be playing a villain. It wasn't until my first fitting with costume designer John Glaser that I discovered I'd be portraying the notorious [Firefly]! It was a huge surprise for me.I immediately starting reading up on the different incarnations and quickly realized that Gotham was doing their own take on the character… a new, badass, female version! Bridgit's story goes beyond what you would expect. I'm really excited for everyone to see her story unfold and witness her transformation. It was incredibly empowering to get to play her as an artist and woman.”
Tune in to see Firefly in action on tonight's episode of Gotham, "Strike Force".
