Things are starting to heat up on CBS’ Supergirl and we are not talking about Hank Henshaw’s eyes. CatCo has its very own love triangle brewing between Jimmy Olsen (Mehcad Brooks), Winn (Jeremy Jordan) and Supergirl herself, Kara (Melissa Benoist). recently the show’s executive producer opened up about how each one is a hero, which good news for those who afraid that Winn would turn out like his father, the Toyman.
Recently, Supergirl executive producer, Andrew Kreisberg, spoke to EW’s Spoiler Room where he opened up about the Winn/Jimmy/Kara love triangle:
“Winn is obviously blind with jealousy that Kara has taken a shine to James, but what’s hilarious is that James has absolutely no idea that Winn is into Kara. He’s so pure of heart himself that he just doesn’t even see it. The nicer he is to Winn, the more it chafes at Winn. At the end of the day, both of them care so much about Kara and really are heroes in their own right, that whatever tension there is always gets put in the backseat when it comes to saving the day.”
It is nice to here Kreisberg refer to Winn as a hero. Winn Schott shares his name with the comic book villain the Toyman, who just so happens to be Winn’s father. Recently, it was revealed that Winslow, Sr is in prison for doing some very bad things. This comes as a relief to those of us who didn’t want to see Winn become a villain himself, as was originally predicted before his father was mentioned.
Recently, DC Entertainment Chief Creative Officer Geoff Johns] and Warner Brothers released a statement to the press about Schott, Sr, reading (via Comicbook.com):
"Winslow Schott, Sr. is a classic D.C. supervillain, a mad criminal genius known as Toyman -- and Winn’s estranged father. Toyman weaponizes toys to wreak destruction and revenge but is ultimately driven by one thing – the obsessive desire to reunite with his beloved son."
Henry Czerny has been cast to play the Toyman in the series.
