Batman's buddy with a badge has been through a number of interesting phases.
Jeffrey Wright made history as soon as he joined The Batman cast as James “Jim” Gordon, becoming the first Black actor to ever play the trusted Gotham City cop (most commonly referred to in comics and DC movies as the city’s Police Commissioner). Of course, each of the previous portrayals of this unmasked ally of the Dark Knight from various comic book adaptations are special and important in their owns ways, but only a chosen few have stood out to true Batfans.
As a Batfan myself, I thought I would share my picks for the all-time best James Gordon depictions in Batman movies and TV shows. So, let’s flip on the Batsignal and start things off with a portrayal that surely no list of this kind would be complete without.
