Today marks the 10-year anniversary of the “Gotham” pilot, which first aired on September 22, 2014, on FOX. To celebrate, writer Alex Zalben published an oral history of the show, compiling interviews with creator Bruno Heller, executive producers Danny Cannon and John Stephens, and cast members David Mazouz (Bruce Wayne), Camren Bicondova (Selina Kyle), Sean Pertwee (Alfred Pennyworth), Ben McKenzie (Jim Gordon), Robin Lord Taylor (Oswald Cobblepot), and Donal Logue (Harvey Bullock).
They reminisce about the casting process, shooting the pilot, the relationship between Bruce and Alfred, Selina and Bruce’s first kiss and David and Camren’s friendship on set, showing the pilot at San Diego Comic-Con for the first time, the show’s premiere in New York, having Batman in the finale, Camren not playing Catwoman in the finale, the impact the show had on their lives, and much more. It is an absolute must-read!
You will find below some excerpts from the interviews, but make sure to read the whole piece here!
[David Mazouz] We all knew this show was different. This show was special. The amount of executives that had their hands in this show, the amount of money that had so obviously gone into it, the amount of thought and care and the unique world that it was a part of, there was never really a question that it was going to go to series, especially after showing up for that table read and shooting that pilot.
Camren Bicondova was a guest on The FSF PopCast (a conversation recorded a month prior), where she mainly talked about “Gotham”. You can watch the video below:
To summarize, Camren talks about how proud she is of the character of Selina and “Gotham”, how her broken foot impacted her work on stunts in season 5, and how she didn’t feel pressure at the time playing Selina because it was an origin story, which had never been done before. She praises Cameron Monaghan and his work on the show, says she wouldn’t see her version of Selina in another universe as “Gotham’s”, but would love working on a limited series showing Selina’s life after Bruce left and before she became Catwoman.
Camren Bicondova was on Instagram Live a few days ago (April 10, 2020) and took the time to answer some fan questions about “Gotham”. Watch below an edited video of her answers, including her talking a bit about her decision not to play the adult version of Selina Kyle in the series finale.
