Fox’s ‘Gotham’ Casts Its Gordon!

Briefly: Fox has found its Jim Gordon.

The O.C. and Southland star Benjamin McKenzie will play the young Commissioner in the currently-in-development pilot Gotham. He’ s no stranger to the world of Batman either, as he voiced the Dark Knight himself in the 2011 animated feature Batman: Year One.

Details on Gotham are still few and far between, but the series is set to tell the origin of the commissioner, and will also feature a young, pre-Batman Bruce Wayne (as well as some of the franchise’s classic villains).

Are you looking forward to the series? Are you hoping for a dark, Batman Begins style Gotham, or something a little more fun? Let us know in the comments below, and we’ll be sure to keep you up to date on all things Gotham.
