GOTHAM: Featurette & Poster Image

WHAT: "Get an inside look at the new series with Executive Producers Bruno Heller and Danny Cannon, and starring Ben McKenzie, Donal Logue and Jada Pinkett Smith."

I was confused for a while (I confused myself, admittedly ;p), since posting the trailer for GOTHAM and my lackluster "excitement" has since grown to "intrigued" when I realized this series was focused on telling the "origin story of the great DC Comics Super-Villains", rather than the shenanigans of "James Gordon" or even a young "Bruce Wayne" LOL= Makes a hella difference to me!

"Based upon characters published by DC Entertainment and produced by Warner Bros. Television, GOTHAM is an origin story of the great DC Comics Super-Villains and vigilantes, revealing an entirely new chapter that has never been told. Starring Ben McKenzie ("Southland," "The O.C."), Donal Logue ("Sons of Anarchy," "Terriers," "Vikings," "Copper") and Jada Pinkett Smith ("The Matrix" films, "HawthoRNe"), GOTHAM follows one cop's rise through a dangerously corrupt city teetering on the edge of evil and chronicles the birth of one of the most popular super heroes of our time. Executive producer Bruno Heller ("The Mentalist") wrote the pilot, which was directed and executive-produced by Emmy Award nominee Danny Cannon (the "CSI" franchise, "Nikita"). John Stephens will serve as an executive producer on the series.

The first season of Gotham will be comprised of 16 episodes, which will air on Monday nights at 8pm on Fox starting this fall. "
