The CW series Gotham Knights has cast the parents of Stephanie Brown (Anna Lore!)
Real-life married couple Ethan Embry and Sunny Mabrey (Cobra Kai, Once Upon A Time) are set to recur in Gotham Knights Season 1 as Arthur and Crystal Brown. Sunny Mabrey will make her first appearance in episode 5, while Ethan Embry makes his debut in episode 6.
Arthur Brown is described as “the 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.”
Crystal is described “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.”
“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,” Executive Producers/Showrunners Chad Fiveash & James Stoteraux and Co-Executive Producer Natalie Abrams sait in a statement.
Gotham Knights premieres Tuesday, March 14 at 9PM ET. For more updates on the series, be sure to visit our dedicated @GothamSite Twitter feed!
