Gotham star Jessica Lucas has mentioned she would like to see the series bring villain Bane into the fold eventually.
Since then, Bane has been a big part of Rocksteady’s Arkham games, The LEGO Batman Movie, and DC’s Rebirth comics.
Christopher Nolans included Tom Hardy as Bane in 2012’s The Dark Knight Rises, and the character was finally taken more seriously again.
Starting as something of a big deal for Batman, Bane “broke the bat” in 1993’s “Knightfall” arc, before losing all his credibility when starring in Joel Schumacher’s Batman & Robin.
