Joker Coming To Gotham By End Of Season

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:19003:]]

Gotham, with all its Batman connections, is currently the highest rated comic book series on TV.

Now it’s learned the most infamous Batman villain of all will be making an appearance of some sort by the end of the season.

“We’ve said you’re going to be waiting a bit longer for it, but this is America — nobody wants to wait,” Gotham Executive Producer Bruo Heller tells TVGuide.com. “So, we will scratch the surface of that story, yes. But just scratch it — a little tap on the door.”

While we wait for the Joker, Gotham will focus on developing two Batman villains, Penguin and Riddler.

“Penguin [Robin Lord Taylor] was born a sociopath and was always going down this path one way or another,” Heller offers. “Nygma is someone who becomes the villain, and we see that journey begin in the second half of the season.”

Regarding Riddler, it’s hinted that Nygma may go bad as a result of a broken heart at the hands of Kristen Kringle, played by Chelsea Spack.

“What motivates people to do things is oftentimes love,” Spack says. “He is slowly starting to break through her defenses, but we take two steps forward and then one step back. It’s not smooth sailing for Edward Nygma. It’s complicated for her to have somebody’s feelings in her hand. It’s not as simple as rejecting somebody and having a clean conscience because she’s starting to realize how deeply he cares.”

Gotham airs Mondays at 8pm ET on FOX.

Terry Brooks Talks Shannara TV Series

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:18990:]]

Coming to MTV is the Shannara TV series which is an adaptation of the Terry Brooks fantasy novels.

Brooks recently answered a couple fan questions about the new series (via suvudu.com).

Difference between the book and the series?

The visuals will lend an astonishing new perspective to your imagining of the story – hopefully in a good way. Also, the writers are fleshing out and adding new material to the book, so that we have some new characters and some new plot lines for the series. This will be a change – again – from the book, but I think we all have to remember that a change of medium requires an understanding that each new effort is an adaptation of the old, not a paint by the numbers. I am way cool with the changes, and I find it interesting to imagine how I would have incorporated them in the book, had I thought to do so. But I think once you’ve done something, you should leave it alone. This is a different imagining, but one that I have kept watch over while it is being developed and which I very much approve.

Is WETA special effects involved (who did The Hobbit)?

WETA is not involved at the present time, although other [New Zealand] special effects companies are. This might change at a later date.

The first season of Shannara will be based on The Elfstones Of Shannara. Manu Bennet has been cast as Allanon, Austin Butler is playing Whil Ohmsford, Ivana Baquero is playing EretriaPoppy Drayton has been cast Amberle Elessedil, Aaron Jakubenko as Ander, and John Rhys-Davies is playing King Eventine.

TNT’s Titans Characters & Info Revealed

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:18976:]]

WB and TNT are bringing the Teen Titans to TV with the live-action series, Titans.

Now the Nerdist is claiming the following information based on a pilot script:

Dick Grayson

It’s said in the current draft of the script, Dick Grayson is still using his Robin identity, but will eventually become Nightwing. It’s said he is dealing with his Batman breakup by serving as a private detective in Boston. 

Barbara Gordon

Aka Batgirl; it’s said she will be wheelchair bound, but will not be going by Oracle. The current script makes her the team’s resident computer hacker.

Hank Hall and Dawn Granger

Aka Hawk and Dove; it’s said their relationship is romantic one and to expect them to be quite different than their comic book counterparts.

Rachel Roth

Aka Raven; will be the character from Geoff Johns’ early 2000’s comics.

Starfire

Said to appear, along with Raven, at the very end of the pilot episode, but expect her to become a major part of the team. It’s also said to expect a love triangle, with Dick Grayson speculated and Barbara Gordon.

It’s said Cyborg and Beast Boy don’t show up in the pilot, but it’s said there is room to eventually include them. 

It’s also said that since TNT and the CW are owned by the same company, Titans could be in the same universe as Arrow and The Flash, which would mean Batman exists in The Flash and Arrow universe as well.

Marvel.com announced the news, but apparently Moss’ character is being kept under wraps as the description doesn’t state the character’s name:

Moss plays a no-nonsense woman who could prove a powerful ally to Jessica…if Jessica doesn’t completely alienate her first.

“Carrie-Anne has proven her ability to play complex characters with deep and layered inner lives,” added Jeph Loeb, Executive Producer/Marvel’s Head of Television. “Her interaction with Jessica Jones will be one of the many highlights of the series.”

Moss, known for The Matrix movies, joins Krysten Ritter (Jessica Jones), David Tennant (Kilgrave), Mike Colter (Luke Cage), and Rachael Taylor (Patricia “Trish” Walker).

Jessica Jones will be released later this year.

Synopsis:

After a tragic ending to her short-lived super hero stint, Jessica Jones is rebuilding her personal life and career as a detective who gets pulled into cases involving people with extraordinary abilities in New York City.

Stephen Amell Wants To Punch This Guy In The Face

Fans of Green Arrow and Hawkeye should get a kick out of the video above.

It features Danish Archer Lars Andersen performing various stunts with a bow and arrow.

Andersen also schools on the proper technique how to shoot the bow and arrow, which is unlike how Hollywood does it (same goes for real martial arts).

Andersen holds the arrows in-hand and shoots on the same side of the bow, while Hollywood uses a quiver and shoots from the opposite side.

Anderson is actually capable of shooting three bows using the technique in under a second. It’s actually incredible.

Arrow himself, Stephen Amell, has seen the video, and from judging from his Facebook post, multiple times.

“Everyone can stop sending me the video of that Danish archer,” Amell posted. “Is it impressive? Sure. Would he be as accurate if I punched him really hard in the mouth. I say no.”

Obviously, Amell doesn’t really want to punch the guy in the face, but we get the picture.

Here is an image of Lars Andersen holding the arrow on the right side (as he is right-handed).

Below, how does Stephen Amell hold it? And Jeremy Renner (left-handed)?

For more about Lars Andersen, check out the YouTube post.

Eclipso Diamond Coming To Constantine

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:18960:]]

Fans of DC Comics continue to get nods and Easter Eggs in the Constantine TV series.

The latest is that the Eclipso diamond will be featured in episode 12.

Showrunner Daniel Cerone told CBR: “We had such an embarrassment of riches with those comic books. I’m literally just leaving playback right now for episode 12. We utilize a black diamond which has an iconic mythology around that in the DC Universe. We did our version of the black diamond. Yes, we use the mythology as an inspiration for that episode.”

Cerone doesn’t specifically mention whether Eclipso will be featured, but the character would make a good pairing with the series as Eclispo is a demon who uses the gem – known as the Heart Of Darkness which was found on the planet of Apokalips as a weapon for Darkseid – to exert his influence over people.

Another bonus is that Eclipso was the first Spirit of Vengeance, prior to The Spectre, who went bad. The Spectre is also set to appear on the following episode of Constantine, episode 13, the last episode of Season 1.

Constantine airs Fridays at 8pm ET on NBC.

Taylor, known for Transformers, Grey’s Anatomy, 666 Park Avenue, Charlie’s Angels and Crisis, joins Krysten Stewart (Jessica Jones), David Tennant (Kilgrave) and Mike Colter (Luke Cage).

Mehcad Brooks Cast As Supergirl’s Love Interest Jimmy Olsen

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:18925:]]

It’s learned that Mehcad Brooks has been cast as Jimmy Olsen in the CBS Supergirl TV series, with it also said Olsen will be the love interest to Kara Zor-El.

The character will actually apparently be called “James” and not Jimmy, and is described as: an attractive photographer at CatCo, the media company where Kara Zor-El works, as an assistant to Cat Grant. Recently, James has been living and working in National City, though the reason is still a secret.

Of course, Jimmy Olsen is known for being a co-worker and friend to Superman/Clark Kent and Lois Lane.

More than likely the casting of Brooks will come with some controversy, similar to Michael B. Jordan as Human Torch in Fantastic Four, as Jimmy Olsen is white in the comic books.

Mehcad Brooks joins Melissa Benoist who will play Supergirl. Greg Berlanti and Ali Adler are executive producing, with Berlanti and Adler also penning the pilot.

Brooks is known for roles in Necessary Roughness and Desperate Housewives.

David Tennant Talks Marvel (Video)

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:18922:]]

Marvel recently announced the casting of David Tennant for the Netflix Jessica Jones series.

Tennant has been named to being playing the villain known as Kilgave.

While not exactly confirmed for Jessica Jones, Kilgrave in the comics is Zebediah Killgrave aka The Purple Man.

Radio Times caught up with Tennant and questioned the actor about Marvel and the character, where you can see in the following video that Tennant happens to be wearing a purple tie.

“I grew up on Marvel comics, so it’s very exciting to be part of their ever expanding entertainment empire,” Tennant said. “It’s great. I love the movies, I love the TV shows that they do, so I’m very pleased to be part of one.

“I grew up an absolute devotee to the worlds of Marvel,” Tennant continued. “So the fact that they’ve expanded now into TV and film is something that I think I sort of fantasized about when I was younger. So now to be part of it, to be on the other side of it is a thrill.

While it’s been said David Tennant will be playing a villain, the former Doctor Who remains coy.

“Who says it’s a villain?” Tennant questioned with a smile. “Make no assumptions. I’m saying nothing. I’ve found myself in another world which I can answer no questions about.”

Watch the video below for more from David Tennant.

“Jessica Jones” stars Krysten Ritter as the titular character and Mike Colter as Luke Cage.

Synopsis:

After a tragic ending to her short-lived super hero stint, Jessica Jones is rebuilding her personal life and career as a detective who gets pulled into cases involving people with extraordinary abilities in New York City.
