Rumor: Is DC Comics Planning a New TV Show Titled PENNYWORTH?

DC Entertainment has had much success on television in recent years, with shows such as Arrow, Gotham, Supergirl and The Flash all being very successful. Rumor has it that yet another series has entered development, but this one sounds…interesting, to say the least.

According to Bleeding Cool, DC Comics has registered a trademark for the name Pennyworth, and the trademark “seems to be” for a new TV show. Of course, Batman fans will recognize the name as that of Alfred Pennyworth, Bruce Wayne’s trusted butler and ally.

No further details are given for Pennyworth. Bleeding Cool speculates that it could be a Gotham spinoff starring Sean Pertwee’s Alfred. Other possibilities include Alfred’s daughter, Julia Pennyworth; a tie-in for Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice‘s Alfred; and a new animated direct-to-video feature. Or, Pennyworth could be something else entirely.

Hopefully, we’ll hear official information on this soon.
