In the Season 4 episode of Gotham, “A Dark Knight: One Bad Day,” the city of Gotham falls into complete anarchy thanks to the dapper and devilish Jeremiah Valeska (Cameron Monaghan). After Mayor Burke (Larry Pine) promoted Gordon (Ben Mackenzie) to police captain, Burke has been nowhere to be found. Holden Pritchard is the Interim Mayor of Gotham City. But for how long seems to be up to Jeremiah not Gordon.
Mayor Holden Pritchard is portrayed by Scottish-born actor Peter McRobbie. He’s known for his roles on The Alienist (Mayor Lafayette Strong), Daredevil (Father Lantom), Boardwalk Empire (Supervisor Frederick Elliot), Law & Order: Special Victims Unit (Judge Walter Bradley), and Damages (Judge Sanford Toomey), among others. McRobbie is also recognized for his roles in the films Bridge of Spies (CIA director Allen Dulles, see link above), Lincoln (George Pendleton), Brokeback Mountain (the Gyllenhaals’ father John Twist), and in several Woody Allen films including Zelig, The Purple Rose of Cairo, Bullets Over Broadway and Might Aphrodite. Gotham airs Thursdays at 8pm on FOX.
