TRAMA
I detective del Dipartimento della Polizia di Gotham City, guidati dal capitano Sarah Essen, il giovane James Gordon e il suo nuovo partner Harvey Bullock, vengono ingaggiati per risolvere uno degli omicidi più sconvolgenti e di alto profilo a cui Gotham abbia mai assistito: l'assassinio di Thomas e Martha Wayne. Durante la sua indagine, Gordon incontrerà il figlio dei Wayne, Bruce, ora sotto la tutela del maggiordomo Alfred Pennyworth, che darà informazioni utili a Gordon per trovare il killer. Lungo il suo cammino da detective, Gordon dovrà confrontarsi con diversi boss della mafia e delle gang (uno dei quali è Fish Mooney), e con quelli che saranno i futuri villains dell'universo di Batman, tra i quali Selina Kyle (la futura Catwoman), il Joker e Oswald Cobblepot (colui che diventerà il Pinguino).
An action-drama series following rookie detective James Gordon as he battles villains and corruption in pre-Batman Gotham City.
The series flash-forwards 10 years into the future, as Bruce is set to return to Gotham for the opening of the new Wayne Tower. A series of crimes leads Gordon to believe Penguin and The Riddler are up to their old tricks. However, when Bullock is framed for a murder, Gordon begins to piece together an even more sinister plot targeting the city, and a new figure emerges from the shadows to be the hero Gotham desperately needs.
As Bane enacts his final plan for Gotham’s destruction, Gordon rallies his former enemies to save the city. Meanwhile, Nyssa al Ghul kidnaps Barbara’s newborn daughter, with ambitions to raise her as her own. Then, Bruce’s decision to leave Gotham points him to his destiny, while devastating Selina.
On the precipice of Gotham’s reunification, Gordon and Bruce find themselves face-to-face with a newly transformed Eduardo, and discover the real mastermind behind the city’s current chaos. Meanwhile, a pregnant Barbara turns to Lee for help.
After Gordon is shot in an attempt to establish a cease-fire, he hallucinates a trial for his life that could have deadly real consequences. Meanwhile, Ivy (guest star Peyton List) returns and puts her spell on Bruce, leaving Selina to defend herself. Lee has a life-changing moment as Barbara and Penguin consider their next move.
Bullock's past comes back to haunt him when he and Gordon investigate two murders at Sirens. Meanwhile, Bruce and Alfred explore the tunnels beneath the city, and Penguin and Nygma's plans to escape are thwarted by the least likely of suspects.
