No sooner had The CW closed down the scandalous Batwoman show, which was the most successful among those based on The DC Comics, than it was announced that a new show, Gotham Knights, would be launched. It is authored by Chad Fiveash and James Patrick Stotero, who also created Batwoman, but representatives of the channel insist that the novelty has no connection to the closed series or any existing DC project.
Little information has been revealed about the upcoming release, but the creators have presented the first footage from the series, which allows you to get acquainted with its characters. It is known that the release date of the Knights of Gotham series will be in 2023. It is also interesting that at the same time a computer game of the same name is coming out, but the authors also deny any connection with it.
What do you think, is it worth filming a sequel, and what should be in it?
The new project is based on comic books and touches upon the events that unfolded after the death of Batman. The superhero and the protector of Gotham were killed, but the culprits were not found. The public claims it is one of the masked vigilante’s old enemies, but the supervillain’s children claim that their parents are not to blame and team up with Bruce Wayne’s son to find the true culprits. These events are the focus of the new series, whose release date is announced for 2022.
The lead actors in the upcoming series are Fallon Smythe, Olivia Rose Keegan, Oscar Morgan, and others. These are young actors who have not previously starred in major projects, but there is a star in the cast – Misha Collins, known for his participation in the project Supernatural. The Canadian actor managed to get the role of Harvey Dent. He is a district attorney who fought crime in honest ways, but because of a tragic accident, got acid burns on his face. This led to a change in his outlook on life. The former prosecutor became the supervillain Two-Face. This is one of Batman’s most dangerous enemies, appearing in numerous comic books, but it is not yet known whether viewers of the novelties will see his transformation. The Gotham Knights series release date has been announced for the spring of 2023.
Check out information about other TV show sequels like: Elite season 7, Squid Game season 2, Manifest season 5, Titans season 4 and The Owl House season 3.
Verified sources know that Harvey will initially appear as the prosecutor, but given that the storyline says that Batman is already dead in the new show, the timeline of events says that Harvey should already be Two-Face. This could promise time jumps or storytelling in the format of flashback characters. If the theory is indeed correct, viewers may also see Bruce Wayne himself. It is possible that in this way the authors will tell the reasons for his conflict with his son, which resulted in the young man’s rebellion and his association with the villains’ children. How true fans’ theories are, we will know after the release of the show, whose release date is expected in 2022.
