The Joker Teased in Promo Trailer for GOTHAM!
We've heard that the Joker would be introduced in this first season of Gotham, and now we have our first look at the character in a promo trailer for next weeks episode! It's called "The Blind Fortune Teller" and the spot builds on the suspense of the arrival of the Crown Prince of Crime. At least that's what FOX wants us to believe! It's pretty blatant, with a sinister young man laughing hysterically while being interrogated by Jim Gordon. The promo also declares, "Gotham’s next villain is no joke."
The actor playing the character is 21-year-old Cameron Monaghan (Shameless, Vampire Academy, The Giver), and the character's name being used in this episode is "Jerome". I'm incredibly excited to see the Joker's rise of insanity in this series! We won't get into the meat of the character until Season 2.
