Portrayed By: Neil Hamilton, Pat Hingle, Gary Oldman

Current Actor: Ben McKenzie

What to Expect: As Detective James Gordon, McKenzie shines a naive light on the man known for putting tons of criminals behind bars as the commissioner of Gotham City.

If you’re curious, at the end of the first episode there is one particular action that will prove just where James stands.
