Gotham Knights: Bruce Wayne’s Son Will Investigate Death Of…Batman

“Who will defend Gotham City now when the Dark Knight is dead?”

Based on characters created for DC by Bob Kane and Bill Finger, Gotham Knights is written by the Batwoman trio of Chad Fayvash, James Stothero and Natalie Abrams. Set after the assassination of Bruce Wayne, his rebellious adopted son Turner Hayes (Oscar Morgan) forms an unlikely alliance with the children of Batman’s enemies – Duela (Olivia Rose Keegan), Harper Rowe (Fallon Smythe) and his brother Cullen Rowe (Tyler DiChiara) – when they are all accused of killing the Caped Crusader.

This gang of misfit renegades, the city’s most wanted criminals, must fight to clear their name. But in Gotham City without the Dark Knight to protect the people, the city is more dangerous than ever. However, hope comes from the most unexpected place, as this mismatched team of fugitives will become a new generation of saviors known as the Knights of Gotham. Supernatural’s Misha Collins plays District Attorney Harvey Dent, who is tasked with investigating Batman’s death.

Gotham Knights premieres next year on The CW.
