Gotham's Drew Powell '98 Appears on Morning News Program

October 20, 2014

Drew Powell, a 1998 graduate of DePauw University and one of the stars of the new Fox television show, Gotham, paid a visit to the studios of Indianapolis Fox affiliate WXIN this morning to talk about the program and his career.  The segment began with Powell giving a shout out to his alma mater and the Tiger football team.

In Gotham, which airs Monday nights on Fox, Powell portrays Butch Gilzean, a recurring character described as "the deceptively clever and ambitious second-in-command to sadistic gangster boss Fish Mooney (Jada Pinkett-Smith)."

An English (literature) major and Media Fellow at DePauw, Powell's resume includes a role in the big screen remake of Straw Dogs. He's also made appearances in The Mentalist, NCIS: Naval Criminal Investigative Service, Grey's Anatomy, Modern Family, Castle, Necessary Roughness, Bones, Leverage, Malcolm in the Middle, True Blood, CSI, Ponderosa, The Office, 1408, House, Psych, Memphis Beat and ER.
