"Obviously I’d like to see him become more and more powerful, but at the same time I like it when he fails. I like the struggle, and watching him figure things out. All I can say is that I hope the other villains get established, so that I have more fun folks to play off of."

Penguin is definitely having struggles trying to run the club he took over from Fish Mooney, it’ll be interesting to see if and how he turns that around. Be sure to check out the rest of the interview with Cultured.com, where Taylor also talks about possibly working behind the scenes, and how cool he thinks comic book fans are. And be sure to catch him as Oswald Cobblepot aka The Penguin on Gotham when it returns April 13th on Fox!
