"Gotham Knights" First Trailer Unveiled

The CW unveiled Tuesday the first trailer for its newly greenlit series "Gotham Knights".

Based on characters created for DC by Bob Kane with Bill Finger, Gotham Knights is scripted by the Batwoman trio of Chad Fiveash, James Stoteraux, and Natalie Abrams.

Despite sharing the name of the upcoming video game, Gotham Knights is not connected to it, nor is it meant to be a Batwoman or Arrowverse spinoff.

Since 2012, the network has become one of the homes for Warner Bros.' DC properties as executive producer Greg Berlanti's Arrowverse has continued to expand yearly. Almost every year, the CW has released one show after another.

It picks up in the aftermath of Bruce Wayne’s murder, with his rebellious adopted son Turner Hayes (Oscar Morgan) forging an unlikely alliance with the children of Batman’s enemies—Duela (Olivia Rose Keegan), Harper Row (Fallon Smythe), and her brother Cullen Row (Tyler DiChiara)—when they are all framed for killing the Caped Crusader.

The renegade band of misfits fight to clear their names. But in a Gotham with no Dark Knight to protect it, the city descends into the most dangerous it’s ever been. However, hope comes from the most unexpected of places as this team of mismatched fugitives will become its next generation of saviors known as the Gotham Knights.

The series also features "Supernatural" star Misha Collins as District Attorney Harvey Dent, who will eventually become Two-Face.

"Gotham Knights" is set to premiere in 2023. The series release date will be revealed later in the year, as it will join The Flash season 9 and Superman & Lois season 3 during midseason.
