Before Batman…there was GOTHAM.
The first look of the now confirmed TV series Gotham came via the release of the first official teaser and extended trailers last night (5th May 2014) during ’24’.
A moody and intense official trailer gives us a first glimpse in to the chaos and corruption that hangs heavy over the City of Gotham in the aftermath of Thomas and Martha Wayne’s murders. It shows a power battle developing for the dark heart and soul of Gotham with our first official look at Fish Mooney (Jada Pinkett Smith) and confirms the presence of other notable characters Edward Nygma (Corey Michael Smith) and a young Ivy Pepper (Clare Foley). The Gotham City Police Department portrayed here through Jim Gordon (Ben Mckenzie) and Harvey Bullock (Donal Logue) look to be many shades of grey between black and white with a great little sequence of Jim Gordon “questioning” Oswald Cobblepot (Robin Taylor). The trailer exposes a lovely big melting pot that looks both exciting and enticing.
Roll on Autumn/Fall 2014…we can’t wait for this show.
