Delivering another Batman prequel spin-off that comes after Fox's "Gotham" and in the 80th year of the Caped Crusader in popculture, Epix has released the first look of Jack Bannon as a young Alfred Pennyworth - in the first photo for "Pennyworth" released in the show's Twitter page.

The series will debut this June, and will consist of 10 one hour episodes chronicling the early days of the SAS agent who works as a bouncer and crosses paths with Thomas Wayne - the father of the future Dark Knight, Bruce Wayne.

Batman's butler Alfred gets own prequel TV Series in "Pennyworth"

Looks like Batman fans will have something else to look forward to besides the fifth and final season of Gotham down the line, as Gotham showrunner Bruno Heller is going to tackle the early years of a certain "faithful butler" of the Dark Knight - namely Alfred Pennyworth as Epix was handed a 10 episode - straight to series order for "Pennyworth".

While no release date has been given for the series yet, it is slated for a 2019 release. Heller, who is  producing the show, will be reunited with fellow Gotham producer Danny Cannon  - who will also executive produce and direct the pilot of the show.
