Not Watching Gotham? Now You Have a Reason to: Morena Baccarin!

We loved her as Inara in Firefly, just as much as we loved her as Anna in V. Now, Morena Baccarin is going to be in Gotham, which has received rather good ratings, although some hardcore comics fans were skeptical after the first episode.

If you haven’t started watching Gotham yet, then if there’s one reason you should start, it’s the addition of Morena Baccarin in the cast.

Based on a report by Deadline, the gorgeous and talented actress will show up in this season as a recurring character; and in the second season, she is going to be a regular figure.

She will play Dr. Leslie Thompkins, a gifted and dedicated physician who was a friend of Bruce Wayne’s parents, Thomas and Martha. She is determined to use her skills to aid Gotham’s most in need, which currently means working at the newly opened Arkham Asylum’s Home for the Criminally Insane. In addition to her medical skills, her coolness under pressure will serve her well as she finds herself drawn close to James Gordon and into more and more dangerous waters.

So it seems like she is going to be one of the good guys, or then again, maybe she might turn into something/someone else.

In any case, it’s great news for all Firefly, V, and Gotham fans.

Who’s as excited as I am?
