From a new set video, it looks like Bruce Wayne, a.k.a. Batman, could appear in some capacity in The CW's Gotham Knights.

Gotham Knights officially kicked off principal photography this month in Toronto, Canada, rather than in Vancouver, which is where most of the Arrowverse series film. The Gotham Knights pilot is being helmed by Gotham and Pennyworth director Danny Cannon, making this his third Batman TV project.
