Gotham TV Series Cast David Mazouz Says He's Taking Christian Bale's Approach In Dark Knight Series To Portray His Role As Young Bruce Wayne

Nov 07, 2014 05:06 AM EST | By Staff Reporter

David Mazouz's young Bruce Wayne in Gotham TV series is someone who seems to be mad at the world, always angry and sad. Well, that's the primary effect of losing your parents to shooting and not getting any justice. His quest for justice will take longer and that means people will only see a young Bruce Wayne who was robbed of his childhood. For Mazouz, he understands the dark clouds surrounding his character in Gotham TV series. To convincingly portray such character, he is taking inspiration from one of the most recognized actors that portrayed Batman, Christian Bale.

"We all know Batman as The Dark Knight but you never saw that more serious side of him. Adam West and Michael Keaton were a little more fun and campy. Christian Bale was really dark and serious as Bruce Wayne - I think that's the approach that I've been taking in Gotham," the Gotham TV series star told Channel 5 as per MTV UK.

"It's an iconic and interesting role," he continued. "He's dark and angry at the world. He's lonely and going through a really interesting grieving process. It's going to be really interesting to see him getting over his parents' death."

In another interview with Buddy TV before Gotham TV series debut, Mazouz described his character as someone who is determined although not yet strong. He even teased readers that they will get to see a Bruce Wayne who knows how to fight by the middle part of the season.

"He's smart and he's looking into Gotham. You'll also see about half way through the season, he starts to have some anger and you'll see him want to learn how to do that more, how to fight, you will definitely see that this season. Batman's obviously a fantastic fighter. And you'll see his intelligence and his ability to find clues. You'll see those character traits throughout the first season."

Aside from Mazouz, the show also stars Ben McKenzie as Jim Gordon, Robin Lord Taylor as Oswald 'Penguin' Cobblepot, and Jada Pinket Smith as Fish Mooney.
