New GOTHAM Featurette Released; "The Worlds Of Gotham"
A brief new featurette has been released for Gotham, the upcoming TV series which puts the spotlight on a young Detective Jim Gordon following the murder of Bruce Wayne’s parents, and focuses on both of them and younger versions of some of Batman’s most iconic villains.
Everyone knows the name Commissioner Gordon. He is one of the crime world’s greatest foes, a man whose reputation is synonymous with law and order. But what is known of Gordon’s story and his rise from rookie detective to Police Commissioner? What did it take to navigate the multiple layers of corruption that secretly ruled Gotham City, the spawning ground of the world’s most iconic villains? And what circumstances created them – the larger-than-life personas who would become Catwoman, The Penguin, The Riddler, Two-Face and The Joker. GOTHAM is an origin story of the great DC Comics super villains and vigilantes, revealing an entirely new chapter that has never been told. From executive producer/writer Bruno Heller (“The Mentalist,” “Rome”), GOTHAM follows one cop’s rise through a dangerously corrupt city teetering on the edge of evil and chronicles the birth of one of the most popular super heroes of our time.
The featurette above contains a short interview with showrunner Bruno Heller, and some brief new scenes featuring characters like Bruce Wayne (David Mazouz), Detective Jim Gordon (Ben McKenzie), Detective Harvey Bullock (Donal Logue), Edward Nygma/The Riddler (Cory Michael Smith), Fish Mooney (Jada Pinkett-Smith), Oswald Cobblepot/The Penguin (Robin Taylor), Selina Kyle/Catwoman (Camren Bicondova) and Ivy Pepper/Poison Ivy (Clare Foley).
