Gotham Knights Star Confirms Duela Is The Joker’s Daughter
One of the stars of The CW's Gotham Knights confirms that Duela will indeed be depicted as the Joker's daughter in the upcoming DC TV show. Since 2012, The CW has partially become known for its superhero properties through Greg Berlanti's Arrowverse, as it has launched one show after another. 2023 will be no different as the network is adding a new DC TV series to their now-slim slate of comic book projects.

One of the DC players that will be featured in Gotham Knights is Duela, who will be portrayed by Olivia Rose Keegan. DC fans will know Duela as none other than Joker's daughter, who has quite the complex history in the comic lore.
