Gotham TV Show: 10 Characters Who Must Appear

Other than those we already know will appear...

Gotham Tv Show We're just three short weeks away from the launch of Fox's hugely-anticipated Batman spin-off series Gotham, which revolves primarily around the lives of Detective James Gordon (Ben McKenzie) and Bruce Wayne (David Mazouz) after Wayne's parents are murdered. In addition, the show is confirmed to include the likes of Alfred Pennyworth, Oswald Cobblepot, Selina Kyle, Edward Nygma, Ivy Pepper (based on Poison Ivy), Salvatore Maroni and Carmine Falconi, all of whom will inform Bruce's childhood and lead him to become the Dark Knight in the future. While this is already a pretty extensive line-up, Batman's array of colourful characters is so vast and extensive that there's plenty more who could be included throughout the show's run. While we already know that The Joker, Harvey Dent, Mr. Freeze, Scarecrow and Hugo Strange are set to appear some time in the future, what about beloved characters from the comics and previous movies who we'd love to see given a prequel treatment? Granted, the likelihood of many of these characters appearing hinges hugely on whether the show is going to stick to canon or not (particularly regarding specific characters' ages), but we'd certainly love to see these awesome figures from Batman's history make an appearance of some kind, no matter how fleeting or obscure. Who would you love to see appear in Gotham? What do you make of our picks? Let us know in the comments!
