David Mazouz (Touch) has been cast as the preteen Bruce Wayne, sentenced to a solitary life after the tragic murder of his wealthy parents. Serious and soulful, young Bruce relies on the guidance and protection of Alfred Pennyworth and James Gordon.
(Note: As has been reported previously, GOTHAM is the origin story of Commissioner James Gordon and not a “Batman” show. Please note for stories that David is playing the young Bruce Wayne — not Batman.)
They’ve cast a “preteen” Bruce Wayne (the actor’s actually 13) for the new Batman-related series Gotham. Early reports suggested that plans for the show had the final scene being Bruce Wayne putting on the Batman costume. If that’s really the case, they’re apparently planning on it running for a loooooong time.
