He's got the grin, the laugh, and the penchant for chaos, but
Gotham's Jerome (Cameron Monaghan) isn't the Joker; at least, according to the series showrunners. As for the show, it hasn't really gone out of its way to persuade viewers otherwise.
Monaghan has given a performance mirroring the villain despite lacking the official moniker, and some recent
set photos showed the actor in Joker-esque garb, complete with a white face and red lips (though lacking the facial scars the character recently acquired).
In the latest promotional material for this week's episode, "Mandatory Brunch Meeting", Jerome is seen assembling a team of supervillains (which he dubs the Legion of Horribles), comprising of Mr. Freeze, the Penguin, Scarecrow, and more. The trailer promises, explosions, chaos, and "a secret that will change everything". Could we finally discover the mystery of the Joker? We'll have to see this Thursday.
