New Images for the TV Series Gotham

21 March, 2014 gothamtvpodcastgmail-com News Comments Off on New Images for the TV Series Gotham

Very exciting first look images of the new Jim Gordon (Ben Mckenzie) in action whilst filming for the new Fox TV show Gotham were posted by comicbookmovie.com. The pictures show the young Jim Gordon, revolver in hand, on a chase across Gotham and firing at an unknown adversary. Who was he after? Did he catch him or her? These will become clear when the first season gets up-and-running in Autumn of this year. The pictures revealed that the new Jim Gordon, at least initially, does not have a mustache and he is not wearing his trademark glasses.

In quick succession we got more cool images, this time of Oswald Cobblepot (Robin Lord Taylor) on set which were also released via comicbookmovie.com. The criminal Oswald looks dapper and sophisticated with the famous bow tie and we are enjoying the sinister shades that he is wearing. Whilst we don’t see an umbrella in these images, we do see the Gotham Gazette newspaper that may contain spoilers.

If we hadn’t been treated enough to these little snippets from on-set Fox then went and released the first official photo of Donal Logue as Harvey Bullock. With his G.C.P.D. detective badge on display and his gun holstered, he perfectly personifies Gotham and looks every bit the world-weary, hard-edged partner to Jim Gordon. You teach that rookie detective some new tricks.

Another official photo was released by the Gotham Website today, our first look at Camren Bicondova as a young Selina Kyle the future Catwoman. Note the strategically placed Gotham skyline above her head…they sure look like kitty ears!

We’re certainly looking forward to more images from the show and we’ll post them here as soon as we find them. We can’t wait to see official photos of Jim Gordan and Oswald Cobblepot and how Fish Mooney and Alfred Pennyworth are going to turn out for Gotham.

What do you think of the released images. Share your thoughts on the images in the comments section below.

Official Fox site for Gotham now launched

12 March, 2014 gothamtvpodcastgmail-com News Comments Off on Official Fox site for Gotham now launched

Fox TV has launched their official social media presence. Their website is now up and running at https://www.fox.com/gotham/

Fox have also launched their official twitter account @gotham and an official Facebook page.

We’ll be following them all so hopefully we’ll get even more updates about the show through all of these channels.

Just thought we’d share the official news with you as well.

You can hear our thoughts of about what we expect to see in the new series from the cast and production notes we’ve heard so far by listening to our Zero Year Podcasts.

Show Notes

Derek and John return for Zero Year, Episode 2. This time we have a much longer episode that focuses on all the details about the announced cast and characters so far and introduces for the first time the “News” section of the podcast .

News

We begin this week discussing some of the news that has come out since the last episode.

  • At the 2014 Winter Television Critics Association press tour the Chairman of Fox Entertainment has given his description of what we can expect from Gotham with an interesting take of “Gotham teetering on the Edge”.
  • Rocksteady have announced the forth and “Final” game in the Arkham series due out in 2014 on PS4, PC and XboxOne. This is the third game in the series created by Rocksteady and will see a significant upgrade from the previous incarnations. For the first time in this series you’ll be able to actually drive the Batmobile giving you the chance to “Be The Batman” even more than ever before. See the announcement trailer “Father to Son” here:
  • Grant Wilfley Casting has put out a call for extras for the Gotham TV show in New York. Confirming our theory on the filming location for the show. Following Marvels announcement that their four Netflix TV shows will also be filmed in New York we think this confirms New Yorks’ position as Superhero capital of America.
  • We also discuss some casting and news for two other DC properties. Since we recorded the podcast the first full image of The Flash’s costume was released this week and there’s lots of casting for the pilot of Constantine.

Next time on Gotham TV Podcast we’ll be doing our first review show. Derek and John will be discussing their thoughts on the original Batman Year One comic by Frank Miller and the 2011 animated movie adaptation of the same name. This adaptation stars Ben McKenzie as Bruce Wayne/Batman and will hopefully serve as a great introduction to a younger cast of Characters from the Gotham Universe. Expect the episode towards the end of March.

Show Notes

The announcement by Fox Networks of an up-and-coming TV series based around the City of Gotham in the DC Batman Universe was received with excitement and interest by fans of the DC Universe and all things Batman including us.

Based around characters established by Bob Kane and developed by Bill Finger the TV show is set to follow the origin of the young Jim Gordon in the Gotham City P.D. and explore the origin stories of the villans that have made Gotham infamous.

With the show set to be produced by Warner Bros Television and currently in pre-production with Director/Executive Producer – Danny Cannon – and Writer – Bruno Heller – established to guide and develop the Gotham series in its first season.

In this Gotham TV Podcast episode Derek and John discuss our early impressions and thoughts on how this show may develop and pose some questions about the show, such as: How will Gotham function without Batman?

Some major cast announcements have already been made and include Ben McKenzie as the young Jim Gordon, Jada Pinkett-Smith as a new crime boss Fish Mooney, Sean Pertwee as Alfred and Robin Taylor as Oswald Cobblepot (aka the Penguin). These casting choices will be further explored in our next podcast.
