All 4 DC Comics Characters Morena Baccarin Has Played On TV, Ranked
From animated series to live-action adaptations, Morena Baccarin has become a DC Comics mainstay and it's not hard to see why considering her best performances.
Morena Baccarin's extensive filmography reveals her experience with both comic book characters and science fiction TV shows. She gained recognition through her roles in shows like *Firefly*, *Stargate*, and *V*, before transitioning to DC Comics characters. Among her appearances, her vocal performance as Talia al Ghul in two DC animated movies, *Son of Batman* and *Batman: Bad Blood*, stands out. However, Baccarin has taken on four different DC Comics characters in TV shows, with varying levels of significance.
At the lower end of the ranking is Cheetah from *Batman: The Brave and The Bold*. While Cheetah is a formidable adversary for Batman, the animated series' quirky tone limits the depth of character exploration. Baccarin provides a skilled performance, but the role feels more suited to younger audiences.
Morena Baccarin's most memorable DC Comics role is Dr. Leslie Thompkins in Fox's *Gotham*. This character appears throughout the series' five seasons, providing Baccarin with ample opportunity to showcase her acting prowess. Thompkins is an on-and-off-again love interest for Detective Jim Gordon, and Baccarin's performance adds emotional depth and sincerity to the show.
From her unhealthy attachment to the mob to her experimentation with a virus that brings out her darker side, Baccarin's portrayal of Thompkins is a standout moment in her career.
