The role was aged up for season three, forcing young actress Foley — who had recurred — to be recast.
Transformed to a 19-year old, Ivy “Pamela” Pepper isn’t playing Selina Kyle’s sidekick anymore. With the Ted 2 actress now taking on the role, a newly confident and empower Pepper will be moving towards her poisonous persona and Bruce Wayne.
Of course, as fans of the Bruno Heller developed show know, Season 2 ended not just with a hoard of Prof. Hugo Strange’s strange Indian Hill experiments on the streets of Gotham but a Bruce Wayne look-a-like. So, with a grown up Poison Ivy after David Mazouz young Bruce and more, Season 3 of the Ben McKenzie led Gotham could make Season 2’s Rise of The Villains motif look like child’s play – and Batfans will like that indeed.
