Who do you think should play a young Gordon? I first thought of Andrew Garfield as the young rookie Gordon but what are your thoughts?

I'm intrigued by this idea for a show. Interesting to see if they try and eventually tie it into any known canon universes yet or strike out on their own. While Garfield might be a good fit I don't see them getting him seeing how he is working with Marvel and is quite tied up with Amazing Spider-Man for at least the next few years. I'm not really sure who would be a good choice other than that though.
I was trying to think about it too. Not a lot of people are like Gary Oldman. I thought of the marvel/dc thing but look Ben Affleck is doing it. From Daredevil to Batman. (I'm willing to give him a shot). I see Garfield as a real young Gordon in a way but I'm not sure who would be an olderish Gordon.

Affleck wasn't under contract with Marvel though when he signed on to do Batman. I'd love to see the two sides work out a deal if Garfield gets put into the running to allow it but I'm not going to hold my breath.
Haha I hear ya. I'd love to see who is on the list to play Gordon. I'm a hardcore Batman fan and so I'm curious. Some suggesting Bryan Cranston but he's a little old for a young Gordon.

If they go for an older Gordon doing a memoir type thing then Cranston could work. They'd still need to cast a younger version however.
Very true, I can see Cranston in the memoir type but the younger is such a puzzle. I wonder what villains they'll use. I'd like to see some lesser known ones, we've all had enough Joker and Dent to last forever.

Going off of enemies and to tie into your signature I'd love to see Solomon Grundy. Not right away but if it got picked up for more than a season I think it would be a great villain to throw in there.
I agree, maybe have Grundy is a cliffhanger to season 1 or something. Hmm probably Riddler or Great White or something

Sounds interesting, I'd see that. I loved the Scarecrow in Batman Begins

It would be cool to introduce origin stories to the villians so people unfamaliar with the comics could have some idea of the motives and rationale of the enemies in batman universe

I just really hope they work closely with DC. I don't want them to try and throw a Joker origin that makes no sense at all.
Exactly. I wanna see Zsas too, show his origins also and Calendar Man .
