The streets of Gotham better watch out because there's about to be a new face on the streets for season four and it looks like she'll be a powerful presence.

Marina Benedict, who you probably spotted in the recent Prison Break revival, has been cast as the owner of a fight club - and she's not someone to mess with.

She'll be playing Cherry, whose club is in the dangerous neighbourhood The Narrow and is frequently filled with Gotham's biggest delinquents, so we know she's going to be well placed to know exactly what's going on.

Also joining the newbie club, according to TVLine, will be Benjamin Stockham, who's set to take on the role of Master Bruce's new bestie.

He'll be playing Alex Winthrop, the grandson of a museum curator who Bruce happens to be in contact with when tracking a mysterious artefact - how very handy.

However, when Gotham's most dangerous crooks target the item, the two teenagers go on the run together.

UK fans will have to wait AGES to see the two new characters as season three hasn't even aired yet. Boo.

However, it has been confirmed that Netflix is taking over from Channel 5 and will be showing the third series of the Batman origin story from September 1.

Meanwhile, the US will get to enjoy the show's fourth outing which kicks off on September 21.

It will feature the villainous Scarecrow and see Bruce Wayne embracing his vigilante side as he takes one step closer to becoming The Dark Knight.

Gotham season 4 will premiere on Fox on September 21.
