“gotham” Stars Ben Mckenzie, Morena Baccarin Sign On For Denver Comic Con 2017

RYAN ATWOOD ALERT! Ben McKenzie and Morena Baccarin, who play Detective James Gordon and Dr. Leslie Thompkins on Fox’s “Gotham,” have signed on to join a growing list of TV and film stars at Denver Comic Con 2017. Even for those who haven’t seen “Gotham,” these will be familiar faces. McKenzie, born and raised in Texas, was cast as bruiting Ryan Atwood and stole hearts of girls across the country on “The O.C.” on Fox from 2003 to 2007. His film appearances include “Junebug” with Amy Adams and “88 Minutes” with Pacino before he returned to television in “Southland.” Baccarin’s face has been all over televisions and streaming services with her Emmy-nominated performance on “Homeland” and appearances on “The Good Wife,” “The Mentalist,” “Las Vegas” and “How I Met Your Mother.” Sure to be hot topics for the Comic Con crowd, she appeared on the sci-fi drama “V,” was a regular in Joss Whedon’s post-“Buffy” series “Firefly” and she starred opposite with Ryan Reynolds in 2016’s “Deadpool.” And for those still holding out hope that Ryan and Marissa will end up together, sorry, Baccarin and McKenzie are engaged.
