Fox has released a new 30-second spot to tease the upcoming Batman prequel series Gotham, from The Mentalist creator Bruno Heller. In just a few moments, the video introduces viewers to the three villains that will appear in the pilot - the Penguin, Catwoman and Fish Mooney.
Over closeups of the three characters and some slow-motion shots of them in action, a voiceover wonders how these three very different people could become some of the most dangerous criminals in the world. The answer - they all cut their teeth in Gotham City.
A shot at the end of the video introduces the two main characters, Captain Jim Gordon, played by Ben McKenzie, and Detective Harvey Bullock, played by Donal Logue.
Robin Lord Taylor plays Oswald Cobblepot/The Penguin, while newcomer Camren Bicondova plays the young Selina Kyle/Catwoman. David Mazouz was cast to play a young Bruce Wayne, who will grow up to be Batman one day. Fish Mooney is played by Jada Pinkett-Smith.
Fox has been hyping up Gotham as much as possible, considering it is already in for a full season of the show. A trailer was released early last month with even more action.
Here’s the new spot:
