"Gotham" Chills With 'Mr. Freeze'



According to "Gotham" executive producer Danny Cannon, the 'Batman' super-villain 'Mr. Freeze' will appear on the new series.


"...about the villains in this show...they need to be very credible and relatable and the science behind them needs to be real," said Cannon, "so I had a couple of stories that I'd held onto - real, true stories - and one of them just related to 'Mr Freeze'. I know a real way to create an origin story."


Other 'Batman' comic book villains including 'Edward "The Riddler" Nygma', 'Selina "Catwoman" Kyle', 'Harvey "Two-Face" Dent', 'Oswald "The Penguin" Cobblepot' and 'Ivy "Poison Ivy' Pepper.


Mr. Freeze has been a favorite comic book character to adapt for live-action, having been played by George Sanders, Otto Preminger and Eli Wallach in the 1966 "Batman" TV series, and by Arnold Schwarzenegger in the feature "Batmanb & Robin" (1997).
