Gotham: Synopsis for New Episode Teases Jerome’s Return

By AI Creative Media

Back in Season 2 of Gotham, we saw Cameron Monaghan’s dastardly Gotham villain, Jerome, meet his end at the hands of Gotham City mayor Theo Galavan. But the popularity of the character (due in huge part to Cameron’s memorable portrayal) didn’t stop fan speculation of his possible resurrection in some way or form.

Recently, the show isn’t making a secret about Cameron Monaghan’s character return. With the mid-season finale “Beware the Green-Eyed Monster” weeks ago, the first trailer for Gotham’s 2017 season teased the return of the deranged villain, while actor Monaghan himself took to Twotter in September to confirm his return:

The response from Gotham fans to the character has been overwhelmingly positive from the start, so bringing him back from the grave should give us an exciting season ahead.

Here’s the synopsis for January’s midseason premiere of Gotham, titled “Ghosts.”

Cameron Monaghan and Paul Reubens Return
Falcone places a hit on Gordon after learning that he shot Mario. Gordon and Bullock discover a follower of Jerome (guest star Cameron Monaghan), who plans to bring him back to life. Meanwhile, Penguin spirals out of control before the biggest television interview of his Mayoral career, and Bruce and Selina deal with Selina’s mom’s return to Gotham.

Gotham returns on January 16, 2017.

Historically, the Producer Guild Awards (PGA) is considered a strong indicator of how Oscar best picture will turn out. Consider this metric: over 80% of PGA nominees have become Oscar nominees since 2009.

However, it has been a wide-open awards season so far. Aside from the consensus building around Spotlight, Oscar front-runners this year seems more difficult to determine.

This year, PGA keeps it interesting with the surprise inclusion of a few well-reviewed films — the artificial intelligence thriller “Ex Machina”, and the border drama “Sicario”.

Here is the list of the PGA’s film nominations. The awards will be given out Jan. 23.

“The Big Short”
“Bridge of Spies”
“Brooklyn”
“Ex Machina”
“Mad Max: Fury Road”
“The Martian”
“The Revenant”
“Sicario”
“Spotlight”
“Straight Outta Compton”

Winners will be announced on Jan. 23 during a ceremony in Los Angeles.

Gotham Season 2: What we know so far

Posted on by

Season two of Fox’s “Gotham” will premiere later this month.

By Armando

Fox has been releasing promo materials the past few weeks as we head into Gotham’s second season premiere later this month. Judging from these promos, it appears that Jim Gordon and Harvey Bullock will be busier than ever as Gotham’s villains old and new begin to rise to power.

Star Ben McKenzie recently revealed on EW that the show’s story arcs will be more serialized in it’s treatment of villains, as opposed to season 1 wherein new villains were revealed and disposed of in the same episode.

Here’s the official synopsis that Fox released to go along with the announcement of the premiere date.

“The stakes are higher than ever as Gotham explores the origin stories of some of the most ambitious and depraved Super Villains, including The Riddler, The Joker and Mr. Freeze, and Bruce Wayne (David Mazouz) uncovers more secrets from his father’s past.”

A new promo video can be seen below:

“This is not a red herring,” writer/producer Bruno Heller told E! Online in February. “It’s the beginning of the story of how the Joker came to be, how the Joker was created, where he came from, who he is. Now, that doesn’t necessarily mean that Cameron Monaghan is the Joker. He might be.”

And to fans who have been waiting for Gotham’s season 1 Blu-ray, all 22 episodes will be available on Tuesday, September 8th in glorious 1080p. Additionally, it will also be available for streaming on Netflix beginning September 21st, the same day season 2 premieres on Fox. The 4-disc season 1 on blu-ray will include special features that will not be available via streaming services.

“Gotham” Season 2 premieres Monday, Sept. 21, on Fox at 8 p.m. EDT.
