GOTHAM Season 3 Pic Provides First Look At THE WALKING DEAD's Benedict Samuel As The Mad Hatter
Fresh from playing Morgan's sinister prisoner on The Walking Dead, Benedict Samuel will debut on season 3 of Gotham as classic Bat-baddie, Jervis tech, AKA The Mad Hatter. Get a first look right here...
The Mad Hatter was one of the few remaining human/non-superpowered Batman villains yet to be adapted for Fox's Gotham, but that changes when season 3 kicks off next month.
We recently found out that Benedict Samuel (The Walking Dead, Asthma, Underground) had been cast as Jervis Tech, and now thanks to EW we have our first look at him in the role.
This take on The Hatter is described as “a talented hypnotist teetering on the edge of madness. He arrives in Gotham with an unwavering desire to find his sister, Alice, a young woman who went missing in the city years ago. It is anyone’s guess just how far down the rabbit hole he’s willing to go in order to find her.”
Samuel will recur, and is set to make his debut in episode 3. Gotham returns Monday, Sept. 19 at 8 p.m. ET on Fox.
