EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW: Misha Collins Previews Gotham Knights' Harvey Dent

Another year means another new DC TV show for The CW as we are returning to Gotham City, but a very different one this time around. This week, Gotham Knights finally premiere on The CW, which follows the story of Turner Hayes and a group of teenagers who get framed for Batman's murder. As they have to clear their name, a key player will also emerge in the form of Harvey Dent, played by Supernatural star, Misha Collins, who is trading in his angelic wings for a powerful business suit as the District Attorney. 

The Flash Podcast and Multiverse of Color's Andy Behbakht recently had the honor of chatting with Collins about his entry into the DC Universe. Throughout the interview, the Supernatural and Gotham Knights lead reflects on getting the gig and the lengths the show takes this Harvey before becoming the infamous Batman villain, Two-Face. Collins also opens up about meeting fan expectations before the show has even premiered and how Gotham Knights stand out from The CW's many DC TV shows.

“Pilot” — (9:00-10:00 p.m. ET) (TV-14, DLSV) (HDTV)

SERIES PREMIERE — Batman is dead, and a powder keg has ignited Gotham City without the Dark Knight to protect it. In the wake of Bruce Wayne’s murder, his adopted son Turner Hayes (Oscar Morgan) is framed for killing the Caped Crusader, along with the children of some of Batman’s enemies: Duela Doe (Olivia Rose Keegan), aka The Joker’s Daughter, an unpredictable fighter and skilled thief who was born in Arkham Asylum and abandoned by her father, Harper Row (Fallon Smythe), a streetwise and acerbic engineer who can fix anything, and her brother Cullen Row (Tyler DiChiara), a clever transgender teen who is tired of being polite and agreeable. With the charismatic and hard-charging District Attorney Harvey Dent (Misha Collins) and the GCPD hot on their trail, Turner will rely on allies including his best friend and formidable coder Stephanie Brown (Anna Lore), and unlikely Batman sidekick Carrie Kelley (Navia Robinson).  But our Knights will soon learn there is a larger, more nefarious force at work within Gotham City. This team of mismatched fugitives must band together to become its next generation of saviors known as the “Gotham Knights.” Also starring Rahart Adams as Brody March. Danny Cannon directed the episode written by Natalie Abrams, Chad Fiveash & James Stoteraux (#101). Original airdate 3/14/2023. Every episode of GOTHAM KNIGHTS will be available to stream on The CW App and CWTV.com the day after broadcast for free and without a subscription, log-in or authentication required.”
