The CW's Gotham Knights: Ethan Embry & Sunny Mabrey To Recur

Ethan Embry and Sunny Mabrey have signed on for recurring roles in Season 1 of The CW‘s upcoming series Gotham Knights.

Mabrey will play the character, Crystal Brown. The character will appear in Episode 5 and is described as elegant and eye-catching, as the wife of a local celebrity, Crystal exudes a natural, camera-ready charisma. However, to those closest to her, Crystal runs warm as sunshine one minute, and brutally ice cold the next, because she’s battling a secret addiction that could ruin the lives of her entire family.

Embry will play the character, Arthur Brown. The character will appear in Episode 6 and is described as a meticulous and eccentric host of a Jeopardy-like game show, Arthur is always the smartest person in the room — and he knows it. On the surface, he’s charming and perfectly coiffed, with high expectations for his daughter, the only person who comes close to matching his intellect. But a dark side lurks beneath the surface, with Arthur extremely careful to keep his family’s personal life from becoming public fodder, even if it means breaking a few rules.

“We were blown away by Sunny’s audition for Gotham Knights. It was immediately clear she had the expansive emotional range needed to play this deeply polarizing character. And then we were delighted to discover that Sunny’s husband is an actor who has many fans among our cast, crew and writers. Ethan’s brought Arthur to life in such rich, delightfully disturbing ways. We hope to surprise fans of the mythos with where our story is going, though we’ll give you a clue… Quiz Bowl airs weeknights in Gotham,” said executive producers/showrunners Chad Fiveash & James Stoteraux and co-executive producer Natalie Abrams.

The new series premieres on March 14th.
