Now, Wong is opening up about the inner workings of his characters warped mind. Check out the report below to hear what Strange things Wong has to say about the new villain, as well as a look at tonight’s all new episode.
Recently, B.D. Wong spoke to The Hollywood Reporter about the twisted mind of Doctor Hugo Strange:
"He loves controlling people, he loves manipulating the human brain and messing with people and seeing if he can use his knowledge to actually change a person.”
Wong went on to discuss some of Strange’s obsessions as well as his “God complex.”:
“I see him as someone sophisticated, not an average, scrappy villain, but someone who's intellectually superior and articulate, and in some ways elegant. His obsession with psychiatry and the human brain leads him to behavior and choices and activities that lead him to feel better than other people. He has a God complex.”
Be sure to tune into tonight’s all new episode of Gotham, tonight at 8:00 p.m. eastern. Or you can catch up with the first season on Netflix and Season 2 on Hulu Plus.
