Gotham PD Creator Says The Batman Spinoff Was Like a “1970s Cop Show”
2020 saw the emerging HBO Max streaming platform unveiling plans for a “Batman” spinoff series titled “Gotham PD,” nestled within Matt Reeves’ Batman Epic Crime Saga. This series would delve into the intricacies of Gotham City’s corruption, offering a corrupt cop’s perspective. The production was set to be overseen by Matt Reeves and Dylan Clark, with Terence Winter, acclaimed creator of “Boardwalk Empire” and writer of gangster dramas such as “The Sopranos” and “Tulsa King,” serving as the series’ writer and showrunner. However, later in 2020, Winter departed from the Warner Bros. Television project, attributing his decision to creative disagreements.
