DCTV fans were left rather disappointed, when Fox had embarked on a cancellation spree back in May, giving the boot to many a popular series. Amidst all the reshuffling, though, cult-favorite Gotham made the cut, as the network revealed that the Batman-centric story has been renewed for a fifth and final season. With season 5 all set for an early 2019 release, however, some major developments are in the works at the Warner Bros-produced TV drama. So what if 'Gotham' is setting the stage for a final showdown, it looks like the series is gearing up to introduce some iconic characters before it finally bows out of Fox. 

The news comes courtesy of That Hashtag Show, who unveiled a breakdown of a new character who will be joining the upcoming season in some specific episodes.
