Gotham: Dissecting The Characters Of The Batman Prequel

I think it's safe to say that Gotham is one of the most highly anticipated new shows premiering this fall. The Batman prequel is brought to us by The Mentalist’s Bruno Heller and is hoping to showcase some of the most admired and feared characters in the history of comic books, television and movies.

5) Selina Kyle

Portrayed By: Julie Newmar, Lee Meriwether, Eartha Kitt, Michelle Pfeiffer, Maggie Baird, Halle Berry, Anne Hathaway

Current Actor: Camren Bicondova

What to Expect: First observation of this young actress? She doesn’t even need to utter a word to get across that she is curious like a cat. But more on that later.

We first lay eyes on the young Selina Kyle walking down the street doing what she does best — stealthily stealing. Soon she finds cover in an alley (like all cats do, right?), but while she’s “minding her own business,” she witnesses a bloody crime. This one moment opens Selina’s eyes to a particular someone, who she just might become infatuated with.

As mentioned earlier, Bicondova doesn’t speak (seriously, she doesn’t say one word in the pilot), but she is quite adept to crouching like a cat and putting her curiosity to good use. I definitely look forward to seeing what she’s brings to the table — words and all.
