Gotham Scoop: Morena Baccarin Checks In as Mythic Batman Figure

TVLine:
The doctor is in, and she’s hot for Detective Gordon!

Homeland‘s Morena Baccarin is joining Gotham in the iconic DC Comics role of Dr. Leslie Thompkins, TVLine has learned.

Thompkins is a gifted and dedicated physician who was a friend of the late Thomas and Martha Wayne. She is determined to use her skills to aid Gotham’s most in need, which currently means working at the newly opened Arkham Asylum’s Home for the Criminally Insane.

In addition to her medical skills, her coolness under pressure will serve her well as she finds herself drawn to Ben McKenzie’s James Gordon and into more and more dangerous waters.

She'd have made for an excellent Talia Al Ghul imo. I know Gotham being a prequel and all, but if theres any role suited to her, its Talia.

Arrow should get her casted asap.

Totally. Missed that opportunity. More a temptress than the parental figure.

FOX just can't stop going to the well with the show cast they booted, hah. Guess she's the right age for the role, given Bruce's likely to take up the cowl 15-20 yrs. later, but I'd have pictured Jane Seymour if they cast a Batman-era Leslie. Then again, I'm just thinking of Dr. Quinn.

If we're talking Firefly cast members and prequel era Batman characters, I'd go with Jewel Saite. Then, I'm just thinking of StarGate Atlantis. Dang. Can't stop thinking of my fav sci-fi shows that got canned. *sniff*
