It’s a baby girl for Morena Baccarin and Ben McKenzie! McKenzie plays Det. James Gordon – one day to become Commissioner Gordon – and Baccarin plays his on-show love interest, Dr. Leslie Thompkins.
For those wondering about some of the names the newborn is carrying, “Setta” and “Schenkkan” come from Baccarin and McKenzie’s original surnames, respectively. He told People, “It’s exciting and it’s something that I’ve wanted for a long time.
When asked what she was looking forward to, Morena responded, “I’m looking forward to not being pregnant anymore”. ‘All are happy and healthy and appreciate the well-wishes’.
The R-rated superhero film, led by Ryan Reynolds, soared to the top of the box office, having pulled in $315 million to date.
According to court documents obtained by ET, Baccarin will appear for a deposition in the case just 30 days after the birth of her second child.
