Gotham’s David Mazouz Reveals Which Batman Costume He Wants To Wear

When it comes to Gotham, every fan wants to know if and when young Bruce Wayne, played by David Mazouz, will put on the Batman costume. The question they forget to ask is, “Which Batman costume?”

Mazouz finally had that question put to him. He seemed to have a hard time choosing at first but came down on a relatively recent cape and cowl set straight from the DC Comics universe.

“I’ve never thought about this. I’m sure I’m going to go home and think about it and be like, ‘aw, I should have said this,’” Mazouz told the Gotham TV Podcast. “What’s coming to me now is, I think my favorite one is, the Batman costume from the ‘Court of Owls’ storyline…I think its really cool, the kind of gray with the elongated bat symbol on the chest.”

The “Court of Owls” should be familiar to Mazouz since the latest season of Gotham was heavily inspired by the storyline, which was written by Scott Snyder and drawn by Greg Capullo. The storyline was the first arc of Batman following the New 52 relaunch. The costume used in the series was designed by DC Comics co-publisher Jim Lee.

But while Mazouz went to the source material for his batsuit of choice, he went even more recent and into live-action when picking a Batmobile.

“I really like the Ben Affleck Batmobile,” he said. “I think I’m going to have to go with the Ben Affleck Batmobile.”

Gotham Season 3 concludes next week with the two-part finale “Heroes Rise: Destiny Calling” and “Heroes Rise: Heavydirtysoul.” IN the finale, “with the deadly virus spreading throughout the city, the search for the antidote continues, as Fish Mooney (guest star Jada Pinkett Smith), The Riddler and Penguin reveal plans of their own. Bruce meets Ra’s Al Ghul (guest star Alexander Siddig) and completes his last task in order to fulfill his destiny, but realizes he can’t let go of his past. Meanwhile, Gordon tries to win back Lee, and past alliances within Gotham City are broken, while new alliances are formed.”

In Gotham‘s Season 3, the fight for order and control in Gotham is deadlier than ever with the introduction of cunning, new DC Super-Villains who might alter the future of our heroes and their beloved city. With the Indian Hill fugitives on the loose, Jim Gordon takes matters into his own hands as a bounty hunter in order to save the city that he loves, but will he accomplish his mission to find deranged mastermind Hugo Strange and Fish Mooney, one of Strange’s villainous subjects? While Gordon plays bounty hunter, Gotham City Police Department’s Bullock and Barnes remain on the frontline in Gotham, fighting against crime and destruction in the monster-ridden city. The city seems to be descending further and further into chaos and darkness as burgeoning DC Super-Villains Penguin, Edward Nygma/The Riddler and more are joined by the future Poison Ivy, now transformed into a young woman who’s harnessed the full power of her charms, and Jervis Tetch aka Mad Hatter, a. talented hypnotist teetering on the edge of madness. All the while, a young Bruce Wayne discovers that there are still more secrets behind his parents’ murder as he peels back the curtain on the infamous criminal organization known as the Court of Owls.

Gotham airs Mondays at 8 p.m. ET on Fox.
