Speaking at the WonderCon’s “Gotham” panel, on April 4, executive producer and writer John Stephens revealed what we can expect for Bruce Wayne in the second season of the show:
Several fans asked about the possibilities for more familiar characters, starting with the development of Bruce Wayne, with Stephens responding, “That’s one of the fun things we can look forward to next year. The Bruce Wayne that we all know – there’s Batman and there’s Bruce Wayne. There’s the fake playboy, light, carefree Bruce Wayne, and in Season 2, you’re going to start to see that Bruce Wayne develop, as he starts creating a public face to hide who he actually is. So we watch that schism start to take place.”

“We’ll see the ongoing development of Bruce Wayne,” Stephens told a young fan who was wondering if we’ll ever see the character’s Batman transformation. “When everybody thinks about who Batman is and what he’s become, he’s the world’s greatest detective. We’ll never see Bruce Wayne put on the mask and the cowl, but you will see the young Bruce Wayne develop those strengths and characters, guided by Alfred and by Gordon, that will allow him one day to become Batman.”
