Los Angeles, Sep 26 (IANS) Actor Ben McKenzie has asked fans of “Gotham” to brace themselves for a “whole new crop of villains including Mad Hatter” in the forthcoming season three of the American TV show.
“We’re bringing in a whole new crop of villains, including Mad Hatter, who is a personal favourite of mine from the comics. I’m fascinated to see what the actor we have hired – Benedict Samuel – does with that,” McKenzie said in a statement.
