Gotham is adding Once Upon A Time alumnus Jamie Chung to its cast to play Valerie Vale in season 3!
It looks like fans can expect great things from Gotham season 3! A report by TV Line reveals that Jamie Chung has joined the cast in a recurring role. She’ll be playing Valerie Vale who is described as, “a crackerjack reporter dead set on uncovering the truth behind Indian Hill. Confident and dogged, she will do anything to get the scoop.” It’s also teased that Valerie will go after Gordon who she thinks is the key to the whole story.
If you’re wondering if Valerie has any relation to Vicki Vale from the comics, the answer is yes. Valerie is reportedly Vicki’s aunt. Vicki Vale is also a reporter in the comics and closely follows Batman’s activities. She was known for trying to figure out Batman’s true identity and often came close to connecting him to Bruce Wayne. Fans will have to wait and see just how well her aunt preforms at trying to solve the mysteries of Gotham.
The series is also actively casting a new actress for the role of Ivy Pepper/Poison Ivy. For the past two season on Gotham Clare Foley has played a young version of the character, appearing every so often. Now the role is going to be expanded and the character is being given a boost in age. It’s expected that the new Poison Ivy will be in her late teens.
The Mad Hatter is also supposed to be added to the cast, though there’s no word yet on who may be playing the character or how big the role will be.
