Gotham Casts Jessica Lucas As Tigress

It's a jungle out there—especially in Gotham.

That's because FOX's Gotham has just cast Jessica Lucas as the villain Tigress for its upcoming second season. As Tigress, a.k.a. Tabitha Galavan, Lucas will play an enforcer for Galavan's brother Theo, an evil industrialist with plans to completely control Gotham. And while Theo will be one cold calculator, Tabitha will embrace her alter-ego's namesake by seeking sensual satisfaction in her crime.

Fox's describes Tigress, according to TV Line, is "sexy" and "violent." And, get this, she'll carry a bullwhip. Now who does that remind you of?

Gotham returns for its second season on September 21 at 8:00 p.m. on FOX.
