The first extended trailer for Gotham—coming this Fall to FOX—is here, and boy oh boy, it’s a doozy! If you loved Chris Nolan’s dark-as-pitch version of Batman, then check out this prequel, in which a young Jim Gordon (The O.C.‘s Ben McKenzie!!) pursues the murderer who killed young Bruce Wayne’s parents, while nearly drowning in a city filled with corruption. Check out glimpses of young Penguin, Catwoman, The Riddler and other pubescent baddies, and keep those SQUEEEEs of delight down to a dull roar. Can’t wait!
Bang bang, choo-choo train, let me see you shake that thang. Wm. Steven Humphrey is the editor-in-chief of the Portland Mercury and has held the job since 2000. (So don’t get any funny ideas.) More by Wm. Steven Humphrey
So it’s a dark version of Smallville?
