Fallon Smythe and Tyler DiChiara have joined The CW’s pilot for Gotham Knights as series regulars.
Last month, it was revealed that director Danny Cannon would be helming the pilot for Gotham Knights, which starts filming in April. With principal photography around the corner, the cast for the pilot is beginning to take shape. Variety reports the pilot has cast its first roles with Fallon Smythe and Tyler DiChiara joining Gotham Knights.
Fallon Smythe will play Harper Row, a “streetwise, acerbic and often underestimated, the blue-haired bisexual is a gifted engineer who can fix anything. But what Harper wants most of all is to repair the broken lives of her and her brother, Cullen, the only person she trusts.” Meanwhile, Tyler DiChiara joins Gotham Knights as Cullen Row, described as the following, “after years of hiding his true self from an abusive parent, the transgender teen is tired of being polite and agreeable. Clever and adept at reading human nature, Cullen is ready to fight his own battles.”
Here is the premise for The CW’s Gotham Knights:
In the wake of Bruce Wayne’s murder, his rebellious adopted son forges an unlikely alliance with the children of Batman’s enemies when they are all framed for killing the Caped Crusader. And as the city’s most wanted criminals, this renegade band of misfits must fight to clear their names. But in a Gotham with no Dark Knight to protect it, the city descends into the most dangerous it’s ever been. However, hope comes from the most unexpected of places as this team of mismatched fugitives will become its next generation of saviors known as the Gotham Knights.
