As we haven’t seen any official photos of Wright in character as Gordon in The Batman, it had been unclear if this new version of the Gotham City Commissioner would retain the character’s familiar facial hair, but it now appears we have our answer.
The Batman is currently shooting in London and star Jeffrey Wright has been photographed near the set looking much more like Commissioner James Gordon.
Older Batman fans may also remember Neil Hamilton’s version from the ’60s TV series and Batman: The Movie was also free of facial hair.
Had Wright gone without the mustached for The Batman, he wouldn’t have been the first baby-faced version of Jim Gordon.
