In Gotham, he’ll be “a moral beacon for young Bruce Wayne” who bonds with Bruce over their determination to “uphold Thomas Wayne’s legacy.” Bruce could certainly use the help, considering Gotham City is practically drowning in future supervillains, run-of-the-mill criminals, and otherwise untrustworthy types.
Chalk is a theater vet known for his recurring roles on HBO’s The Newsroom (as Gary Cooper) and Showtime’s Homeland (as Tom Walker). Additionally, he has guest-starred on FX’s Sons of Anarchy and Justified. His big-screen projects include 12 Years a Slave, in which he played Solomon’s fellow captive Clemens.
