Gotham is ending this coming season, and it's safe to assume that a lot will go down in the final episodes.

Cameron Monaghan, one of the stars from the Batman prequel series, has teased what fans can expect from his Joker-inspired character Jeremiah Valeska.

"He is enjoying himself more, but he is also more emotional – and caring – about his relationship with Bruce," he told IGN. "By the end of the season, boy, we have a whole new evolution with him.

David Mazouz, who plays Bruce Wayne, added that there will be scenes further exploring Bruce's relationship with Jeremiah.

"[Jeremiah] does awful things that he thinks will eventually make Bruce come around to him, but neither can end this cycle since Bruce cannot kill and Jeremiah doesn't want to hurt Bruce."

Executive producer John Stephens previously promised that the story of Gotham will come to a "satisfying end".

Meanwhile, set pictures have shown the Riddler and Penguin in classic costumes, a menacing Bane, and Bruce suiting up in a costume that is beginning to resemble the iconic Batsuit.

The final season is back on Fox in the US tonight (January 3) – but no UK premiere date has been announced yet.

Gotham airs on Fox in the US and is available for streaming on Netflix in the UK.
