The versatile actor explains how he and Robert Pattinson pulled off the intimate, yet distant, relationship between their two characters.
“Of course, Gotham is fashioned after New York City, so I looked at the current mayor of New York City, Eric Adams, who is a former cop I admired,” Wright tells. “He first came to my attention back in the ’90s during these major police brutality cases in the city. So I used him as a touchstone. And now, the current police commissioner of the NYPD is a Black woman named Keechant Sewell.
Well, for the most part, he is Jim Gordon as we know him to be from the past, but we didn’t dive too terribly deep into the specifics of his backstory. Matt has some ideas. I have some ideas. Perhaps, we’ll get to explore a bit of that going forward. There were some things in this script that alluded to some of the more personal aspects of his life, but some of them may or may not have made it into the film for various reasons. So those questions remain to be asked and answered.
Well, I think it comes out of a sense of desperation, more so than anything, and utility. It’s early on, but whatever the public perception might be of the Batman, Gordon sees him as useful. And the thing that kept returning to me about Gordon is that he is not an institutionalist. He’s working on behalf of ideals and the citizens of Gotham, so he’ll do whatever it takes within the bounds to succeed at that, and he is beginning to understand that the Batman may be aligned with him.
I’d seen those films, obviously, but again, I don’t find value in going back and watching the films that are referenced too much. I’m sure Matt has specific references for himself, and there may even be shots that are referenced. But for me, it’s more about referencing tone and more about referencing the landscape. I’m not trying to recreate someone else’s performance.
There’s a moment where Gordon thinks he’s next up on the Riddler’s kill list, but Batman refutes him by saying that the Riddler is only targeting the corrupt. Was that the first time Gordon realized that he was the exception among his peers?
