Commissioner Gordon Could Appear in Batman v Superman Dawn of Justice

Gary Oldman brought Commissioner Jim Gordon to life on screen in Christopher Nolan's Dark Knight trilogy, but it seems a new actor could get the chance to portray Batman's friend in Zack Snyder's upcoming Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice.

Batman-On-Film reports that Gordon could appear, albeit in an extremely small capacity, in the superhero movie, as Ben Affleck's Batman has been firmly entrenched in this cinematic universe for years; however, the site notes a caveat with its report:

"According to the aforementioned FOBOF (friend of Batman-On-Film), that's what he's hearing. Since the Batman of BvS is supposed to be a 'seasoned, weary, grizzled crime-fighting veteran,' it's safe to assume that most - if not all - of the Batman Family (and Bat-Villains) already exist in the new DC Cinematic Universe. Based on that line of thinking, a short appearance by Jim Gordon certainly isn't out the realm of possibility. However, I've got to think that since the role of Gordon is such an iconic and important part of the Batman mythos, if the character was really in the film the part would have already been cast and we'd know with whom."

This is a good point, but if Gordon only appears in the movie for one or two scenes in a cameo role, then perhaps we wouldn't know the actor's identity just yet, especially if Snyder and company go with a less-known actor for the part.
