PENNYWORTH: Jack Bannon, Ben Aldridge Join the BATMAN Prequel

PENNYWORTH, the new EPIX drama that follows a young Alfred Pennyworth, has cast a few key roles.

Jack Bannon will play Alfred, “a boyishly handsome, cheerful, charming, clever young man from London. Honest, open-faced and witty; you’d never take him for an SAS killer. Alfred doesn’t know how to reconcile the kind-hearted boy he used to be with the cold, calculated killer he was forced to become. He’s a man on the make, who doesn’t know what to make of himself yet.”

Ben Aldridge will play (the doomed) Thomas Wayne, “a young, fresh-faced billionaire hailing from the east coast of the United States. Confident and extremely disciplined, this young aristocrat meets an unlikely business partner in Alfred Pennyworth.”

Production of the series starts Monday, October 22, 2018, at Warner Bros. Studios Leavesden in the UK. The drama hails from GOTHAM executive producers Bruno Heller and Danny Cannon.
