Deadline has reported that The CW’s Gotham Knights pilot has filled up another lead role as Rahart Adams (Pacific Rim: Uprising) has joined as a series regular.
Adams will play a character named Brody. The description for Brody reads:
Confident and charismatic, Brody’s got the brains and the looks — and he knows it. However, his entitled attitude covers his insecurity and jealousy of anyone who rivals him.
Gotham Knights follows Batman’s adopted son, who teams up with the children of his enemies to clear their names after they are framed for the murder of the Dark Knight. The pilot has been written by Batwoman writers Chad Fiveash, James Stoteraux and Natalie Abrams, although it is separate from that series and the wider Arrowverse.
Adams becomes the latest addition to a cast that includes Fallon Smythe as Harper Row, Tyler DiChiara as Cullen Row, Olivia Rose Keegan as Duela, Navia Robinson as Carrie Kelley, Oscar Morgan as Turner Hayes, Misha Collins as Harvey Dent and Anna Lore as Stephanie Brown.
Gotham Knights will follow Bruce Wayne’s rebellious adopted son in the wake of Bruce’s murder as he’s forced to forge an unlikely alliance with the children of Batman’s enemies after they are all framed for killing the Caped Crusader.
As the city’s most wanted criminals, this renegade band of misfits must fight to clear their names. But in a Gotham with no Dark Knight to protect it, the city becomes more dangerous than it’s ever been. However, hope comes from the most unexpected of places as this team of mismatched fugitives will become its next generation of saviors, known as the Gotham Knights.
