Update On Gotham Season 3

 

With roughly a month and a half to go until Gotham kicks off its new season, Fox has released eight character portraits to raise both awareness and fan excitement. These images offer new looks at a sizable chunk of the principal cast and capture the dark, moody tone the series has become known for. It’s quite interesting that many familiar faces were not included, so it is highly possible that a second round will arrive soon.

One of those left out by this wave of promo shots is that of Leslie Thompkins, AKA Lee, who is played by Morena Baccarin. In a recent conversation with Comic Book Resources, she shared something that is sure to complicate matters in the coming season, stating that her character has a new love interest: New character: It’s Falcone’s son. I think I’m allowed to tell you all this. Nobody’s stopping me. A thunderbolt hasn’t struck me from the sky, yeah!

This new love interest is going to be very interesting because we’ve only ever seen Leslie with Jim. We’ve only ever seen their love story. And now there’s something for him to work for. So it’ll be … it’s exciting as an actor to play that conflict. He’s certainly not a choir boy, so we’ll see what happens with his life. It will not be easy. So they’ll have something to work towards.
Gotham returns for its third season on Monday, September 19 on Fox.
