Gotham Renewed for Final Season That Promises to Reveal [Spoiler]
Young Bruce Wayne’s caped crusade will not be coming to an abrupt end after all.
In an 11th hour decision, Fox has renewed Gotham for a fifth and final season, TVLine has learned. An episode count remains TBD. The pickup will allow producers to properly “wrap up” the Batman prequel saga, with the final season focusing on Bruce’s transformation into Batman.
