Gotham Knights: First Look at the Newest Robin In The CW Show
The first poster for its forthcoming Batman-adjacent show Gotham Knights has been debuted by the CW.
The poster sees Turner Hayes (Oscar Morgan) — the Robin surrogate of the show — all front and center. Flanked by Olivia Rose Duela Dent aka Joker’s Daughter (Oscar Morgan), Carrie Kelley (Navia Ziraili Robinson), Harper Row (Fallon Smythe), and Cullen Row (played by Tyler DiChiara).
Gotham Knights was announced by CW last year
Gotham Knights was announced by CW way back in December last year, centering on the rebellious adopted son of Batman” who “forges an unlikely alliance with the children of Batman’s enemies when they are all framed for killing the Caped Crusader. And as the city’s most wanted criminals, this renegade band of misfits must fight to clear their names. But in a Gotham with no Dark Knight to protect it, the city descends into the most dangerous it’s ever been. However, hope comes from the most unexpected of places as this team of mismatched fugitives will become its next generation of saviors known as the Gotham Knights.” The series hails from writers James Stoteraux, Natalie Abrams, and Chad Fiveash, who also serve as the executive producer with Sarah Schechter, Greg Berlanti, and David Madden.
Supernatural star Misha Collins Will Also Appear In Gotham Knights
Another valuable addition to Gotham Knights is Supernatural star Misha Collins, who will play the role of Harvey Dent/Two-Face. “My character will be Harvey Dent for the whole first year,” Collins revealed about his role on the upcoming DC show. “So I have a nice long stretch of not being two-faced. And then I become Two-Face! Yeah, I’m looking forward to it and I’ll be the old person on the show!” All-American star Anna Lore has also been tapped to play the role of Batman ally Stephanie Brown, also known as Spoiler.
