Uh-Oh, It’s The CW’s Gotham Knights Trailer

Uh-Oh, It’s The CW’s Gotham Knights Trailer

, , 8

Few shows in recent memory have had more working against them than Gotham Knights on The CW. It’s from a company that’s slashing projects left and right, with plans to throw out all established multiverses (like this one) in favor of a unified DC, and it’s on a network that’s about to collapse. Oh yeah, and it has to share a name with that bomb video game that came out last year. Of course, they share a name because they’re both based on the same concept: a Gotham where Batman is dead and the remaining members of the Bat Family have to hold things together. The game at least had the privilege of getting to use Batgirl, Nightwing and others. This one couldn’t clear those guys — too “important” for a late-era CW series. So nearly everybody in this Batman Minus Batman show is a brand new character you’ve never heard of, with the exception of Carrie Kelly, the Robin from Dark Knight Returns. This cast of unknowns includes the

Gotham Knights teased fans with a boss battle with one of the villains. The player is playing as Nightwing with Harley Quinn as the boss fight. These two fought in a video game before but not this brutal. Nightwing must capture Harley in the Return to Arkham DLC in the Arkham Knight, but they never engage in physical combat. There was a limitation on man-on-woman violence then. You just beat up her minions, and she will get arrested. He and the former psychiatrist will now engage in a more physical battle. Harley dropped the baseball bat and Mallet for a sledgehammer and some electrocuting traps. She wants to kill Dick Grayson for real. Dick won’t be as gentlemanly anymore as he will now let her experience gender equality when it comes to a criminal like her. Gotham Knights: Harley Quinn Boss fight Harley Quinn has recently appeared in more heroic roles in live-action and animation movies. Then again, Harley Quinn is more of an anti-hero in the animated series. Harley

We don’t know what the future of The CW will be just yet, but we don’t take this as a good sign: the network just picked up three new shows for the 2022-23 season, but cancelled SEVEN. The new shows are the ones that were highly rumored to be picked up, so they aren’t surprising: Gotham Knights, Walker: Independence and The Winchesters. The first is about “Batman’s rebellious adopted son who forges an unlikely alliance with the children of Batman’s enemies when they are all framed for killing the Caped Crusader.” We’re hoping it will be a more competent take on Batman Minus Batman than Batwoman was. The second is just more Walker except more Western-y, taking place in the 19th century. The third is a Supernatural prequel series about Sam and Dean’s parents, ghost hunters themselves. The cancelled shows are Legacies, Charmed, Naomi, 4400, In The Dark, Roswell New Mexico and Dynasty. It’s really a miracle most of those lived as long as they did, achieving some of the

A couple months ago we told you about Gotham Knights, another “Batman Minus Batman” show WB was considering making for The CW. At the time it was just a proposed idea, but it just came one step closer to happening. The CW has greenlit the production of a pilot episode. As we said before, the premise of Gotham Knights is that Bruce Wayne has been murdered, and his adopted son has been framed for the crime — and they are still not revealing which son that is. Batman’s been around for a long time and has gone through multiple wards….this could be either Tim Drake, Jason Todd, Dick Grayson or Damien Wayne, who isn’t adopted and is Wayne’s legitimate kid but he’s not out of the running here. Also co-framed for the murder are the children of Gotham’s former villains Batman defeated. Unidentified Adopted Wayne Person will have to form uneasy alliances with them to take down their common enemy….but who could it be? Cue season-long search for answers. That’s

There must be some kind of contest at Warner Bros over how many ways you can make a live-action Batman TV series that doesn’t use Batman. There have been at least five at this point, most coming out within the last ten years, and nearly all of them frame Bruce Wayne as either too young, not born yet, missing, or in the case of the proposed series Gotham Knights, DEAD. Yes, Bats is dead — and his adopted son has been framed for his murder! We have no idea which adopted son (aka which Robin) they’re talking about. Depending on the canon, we’ve got Tim Drake, Jason Todd, Dick Grayson or Damien Wayne, who isn’t adopted and is Wayne’s legitimate kid but he’s not out of the running here. Also co-framed for the murder are the children of Gotham’s former villains Batman defeated. Unidentified Adopted Wayne Person will have to form uneasy alliances with them to take down their common enemy….but who could it be? Cue season-long search for answers.
