'Gotham' Season 2 Spoiler: Is James Frain's Character This Iconic DC/Batman Villain?

| By

"Gotham" season 2 spoiler two months ago said James Frain will be a series regular.

That detail suggests maybe the new cast member is playing an iconic DC Comics character in the Fox TV series which will premiere on Sept. 21, someone in the level of the Joker, the Riddler, or the Penguin.

That is not the case though as the same "Gotham" season 2 spoiler revealed he will be playing Theo Galavan which did not even originated from the comics. This character is related to one famous Batman villain though, Tigress.

James Frain has many "Gotham" fans excited. The audience might feel even more stoked with this new details shared by showrunner Danny Cannon.

Theo Galavan is unknown for now. However, when the episodes start rolling, he might turn into someone Batman fans are very familiar with, the Head of the Demon Ra's al Ghul. A theory by TV Guide suggests, based on Cannon's statements, that Frain's character is more than what was written on recent "Gotham" season 2 spoilers.

"Theo Galavan arrives in Gotham as a prodigal son returning," Cannon says. "He comes from a very wealthy family with ancient roots in the building and foundation of Gotham. It takes a while for us to understand why he came back to Gotham and what his plan is, but it's an insidious one, obviously. He's a little bit like the Great Gatsby and Dracula coming to town with money and influence and charm and trying to bend to Gotham to serve him."

Cannon added "Gotham" season 2 will revolve more on how "one man will unleash and empower the villains." Ra's al Ghul is one of the greatest Batman villain who in the show is only 12 years old and played by David Mazouz.

According to"Gotham" season 2 spoiler from Ben McKenzie who plays lead character James Gordon, the show's return will be about the rise of the rogues.

Among those who have been confirmed to appear are Mr. Freeze and Mad Hatter. Season one villains Oswald "The Penguin" Cobblepot (Robin Lord Taylor) and Edward "The Riddler" Nygma are also expected to get bigger storylines.
