Gotham, this year’s most promising TV drama will be premiering first and exclusively in Malaysia next Thursday on September 25th! Catch it on WarnerTV HD (HyppTV Channel 613) and the HyppTV Everywhere mobile app.
Although the series hasn’t begun, it was named the Television Critics Association (TCA) most anticipated new TV series of the season. Gotham will debut in Malaysia just three days after the US world premiere, so you won’t have to worry about missing out! This prequel series explores the extraordinary good-versus-evil struggles in broken Gotham City; the birthplace of the world’s most infamous criminals and legendary superheroes.
The origin story of these DC Comics villains and vigilantes reveals a brand new chapter that’s never been told before – before Batman, there was Gotham. From executive producer and writer Bruno Heller, this one-hour drama follows one cop’s rise through a dangerously corrupt city tottering on the edge of evil and chronicles the genesis of one of the most popular superheroes of our time.
With a reputation synonymous with law and order, Commissioner James Gordon (Ben McKenzie) is one of the crime world’s greatest foes. But, what is known of Gordon’s rise from rookie detective to police commissioner? And what did it take to navigate corruption that secretly ruled Gotham City, the spawning ground of the world’s most iconic villains?
The crime drama follows Gordon’s turbulent rise through the Gotham City police department, and also highlights the characters who will become DC Comics’ most renowned and enduring villains, including a teenaged Selina Kyle – the future Catwoman (Camren Bicondova) and Oswald Cobblepot, also known as The Penguin (Robin Lord Taylor).
To celebrate the debut, a Gotham Villain Hunt, a nod to the sinister escapades of The Penguin, one of the series’ eccentric criminal masterminds, will also be hosted. From the 25th September to 2nd October 2014, you will have a chance to take part in a city-wide scavenger hunt to find hundreds of penguins.
Scavengers need to find limited-edition Gotham-branded penguins, which are about a foot tall with a swing tag and a unique code. Anyone who finds one can keep the penguin and enter a lucky draw on WarnerTV Asia’s Facebook page to win some prizes, ranging from exclusive branded premiums to high-end electronics.
The clues to locate the penguins will be released on WarnerTV Asia’s Facebook page and HyppTV’s Facebook page. Don’t forget to use the hashtag #GothamOnWTV on social media when you take photos with your penguins!
