Gotham Season 5: As The City Falls, The Villains Rise (TEASER)

Think Gotham City is a rough place to live now? Imagine taking a pre-Batman Gotham City and isolating it off from the rest of the world – pretty scary thought, right? That's the premise behind The Dark Knight's backstory series Gotham when the series returns to Fox for its fifth -and final – season on January 3, 2019. When the (in)famous city finds itself the target of a terrorist attack and cut off from the rest of the world, some of the city's most prominant citizens will rise to answer the call.

Unfortunately, "the city's most prominant citizens" consists of some of the hardest-hitting criminals a young Bruce Wayne (David Mazouz)has ever had to face before. In the following 'Day 1' and 'Day 22' clips, viewers witness firsthand (along with some familiar faces) the destruction of the main bridge. Three weeks later, the situation goes from bad to righteously bad as food, supplies, ammo run low – and plans are underway to make something happen.

With Gotham on the brink of total anarchy and cut off from the outside world, only Jim Gordon, Bruce Wayne and a handful of heroes remain behind to retake the city. Inspired by the "No Man's Land" arc from the comics, villains including Penguin, the Riddler, the Sirens and Jeremiah have taken claim on various regions of the city. Will order be restored, or will chaos reign in Gotham?
