New Batman Film: 5 Actors Who Could Play Commissoner Gordon

4. Damian Lewis

rsz_photo-freres-d-armes-band-of-brothers-2001-41 Questions over his follicle growing abilities aside, Damian Lewis has all the credentials needed to play James Gordon. Many incarnations of Gotham€™s Commissioner have been of the ginger variety, so Lewis would fit perfectly if this was the route the filmmakers decided to go. Not only has he the look, but his variety of roles could help him bring to life the perfect Gordon. Authority is not something foreign to Lewis, as he played Captain Winters in HBO€™s acclaimed World War II series Band of Brothers. With Winters, Lewis brought the likeability and confidence that is so necessary for Batman€™s ally. It doesn€™t hurt that he boasts an impeccable American accent either.

As a pretty nerdy guy, I've loved film and television since I was a wee lad. Growing up in Ireland, The Den was the show to watch with it playing Batman The Animated Series, Star Trek: The Next Generation and everything in between. I have an MA in Radio and Television Production and have written for various sites, hope you enjoy my articles/lists for What Culture!
