Joining a cast that just yesterday added four more names, Fox and Warner Bros. Television have announced that Donal Logue (“Terriers,” “Sons of Anarchy”) has been cast as Harvey Bullock in their upcoming series “Gotham.” Originally rumored for a different role in the series, Logue’s Bullock is described as Jim Gordon’s partner and mentor. The rough-around-the-edges detective plays loose with police procedure, but he gets results … and he does it with old-school, forceful panache.
The series has also cast Ben McKenzie as James Gordon, Robin Lord Taylor as Oswald Cobblepot, Sean Pertwee asAlfred Pennyworth, Zabryna Guevara as Gordon’s boss at the GCPD, Captain Essen, and Erin Richards as Gordon’s fiancee, Barbara Kean.
Bruno Heller (“The Mentalist,” “Rome”) wrote the pilot script and will serve as executive producer on the series. Danny Cannon (“CSI,” “Nikita”) will direct and executive produce the pilot.
