Gotham Season 2 is to welcome the Clown Prince Of Crime and the Chilly Prince Of Chilblains to its ever-expanding rogues gallery. The story broke at the Fox Upfronts industry pitchfest.
Presumably The Joker and Mr. Freeze will appear as young versions of themselves, in the show’s now firmly-established format. The likes of The Penguin, Catwoman and The Riddler are all up and running, so it was only a matter of time before these big bads were ushered in.
Whoever is cast as Batman’s ultimate nemesis faces some stiff competition from Jared Leto, who’ll take the grown up version of the role in upcoming SUICIDE SQUAD. The latter option has less to worry about – last time we saw Freeze he was lumbering about as Arnold Schwarzenegger in Joel Schumacher’s critically-mauled BATMAN & ROBIN movie.
It looks like Ben McKenzie’s Jim Gordon and Donal Logue’s Harvey Bullock will have their work cut out keeping track of all the villains, never mind catching them. The paperwork alone must be a crippler!
