New ‘Gotham’ Trailer Reveals Jeremiah As Batman Villain The Joker

Fox released a new Gotham trailer that seems to confirm Cameron Monaghan’s Jeremiah Valeska is, in fact, this series’ incarnation of Batman’s arch-enemy the Joker.

When Cameron Monaghan’s Jerome Valeska debuted on Gotham, it was impossible to avoid the obvious similarities between the insane villain and Batman’s arch-enemy The Joker. However, the creative team insisted the character was more of a prototype version of the Joker and his eventual demise seemed to confirm he was not the actual Clown Prince of Crime. Then, Cameron Monaghan returned as Jerome’s brother, Jeremiah, and this new role was also very much like the Joker in every way except for the name. Now, the latest trailer for Gotham seems to reveal Jeremiah will become the infamous Batman foe after all.
