‘Pennyworth’ Batman Prequel Series In The Works At EPIX

THR reports that EPIX has ordered a Batman prequel series entitled 'Pennyworth' that will focus on the younger years of Alfred Pennyworth.

The new series won't be directly connected to 'Gotham' but is brought to us by Gotham executive producers Bruno Heller and Danny Cannon. 'Pennyworth' will focus on Alfred's time as a former special forces officer in London and his time working with Thomas Wayne. 

EPIX President Michael Wright had this to say:

“As genuine fans of these classic DC characters, as well as the incredibly talented Bruno Heller and Danny Cannon, we couldn’t be more excited to make Epix the home of this series. We can’t wait to work with Bruno and Danny – along with Peter Roth, Susan Rovner, Brett Paul and the team at Warner Horizon – on this fantastic origin story.”
