GOTHAM KNIGHTS: What You Need to Know About the Series Premiere

The CW is launching a new DC Comics series, GOTHAM KNIGHTS, which is set in the aftermath of Batman’s death.

If you’re counting down the minutes for the show’s bow, take a look at photos from tonight’s season premiere, and an episode tease…

The CW’s description of the premiere: “Batman is dead, and a powder keg has ignited Gotham City without the Dark Knight to protect it.  In the wake of Bruce Wayne’s murder, his adopted son Turner Hayes (Oscar Morgan) is framed for killing the Caped Crusader, along with the children of some of Batman’s enemies: Duela Doe (Olivia Rose Keegan), aka The Joker’s Daughter, an unpredictable fighter and skilled thief who was born in Arkham Asylum and abandoned by her father, Harper Row (Fallon Smythe), a streetwise and acerbic engineer who can fix anything, and her brother Cullen Row (Tyler DiChiara), a clever transgender teen who is tired of being polite and agreeable. With the charismatic and hard-charging District Attorney Harvey Dent (Misha Collins) and the GCPD hot on their trail, Turner will rely on allies including his best friend and formidable coder Stephanie Brown (Anna Lore), and unlikely Batman sidekick Carrie Kelley (Navia Robinson).  But our Knights will soon learn there is a larger, more nefarious force at work within Gotham City. This team of mismatched fugitives must band together to become its next generation of saviors known as the “Gotham Knights.”  Also starring Rahart Adams as Brody March.  Danny Cannon directed the episode written by Natalie Abrams, Chad Fiveash & James Stoteraux.”
