On how close Leslie Thompkins is to the source material:
"Yeah. They’re not sticking too close to the original mythology from the comics. Basically she and Jim meet at Arkham Asylum where he winds up working after the last episode. And they sort of hit it off because they’re both two people who are trying to do the right thing in a city that’s corrupt. And, like him, she’s someone who doesn’t really stand for bulls***. She’s very pragmatic and isn’t fazed by the craziness of Gotham. So they’re pretty drawn to each other and they wind up teaming up."
On working with Ben Mackenzie, who plays James Gordon:
"Yeah, he’s great. He’s really giving it his all. Everything he’s got. He’s super fun. We have a good time and he and I make a really fun pair of characters on the show. They have a great interaction between them and it’s only going to grow. It’s been great."
