This fall, Fox is launching its ambitious Batman prequel series, “Gotham;” which will delve into the origin stories of Bruce Wayne and his greatest enemies from the point of view of Detective James Gordon (Ben McKenzie).
Fox has released a new teaser for “Gotham” that puts the focus on the future Catwoman, Selina Kyle (Camren Bicondova), the future Penguin, Oswald Cobblepot (Robin Lord Taylor) and Fish Mooney (Jada Pinkett Smith), a crime boss in the present.

However, after viewing the pilot episode last week, I can say that this promo is somewhat misleading. Both Fish and Oswald have big roles in the pilot episode, but not quite in the way that you might expect. Without giving away too many spoilers, I can say that there are much bigger fish than Fish, there’s a larger mystery at play and Gordon has his own problems to deal with. And Selina Kyle isn’t on anyone’s radar… yet.
“Gotham” will likely premiere in September or October on Fox.
