Recent "Gotham" episode guide have it that the newest villain "Ogre" (Milo Ventimiglia) is now aware he is being investigated by Jim Gordon (Ben McKenzie).
Other GCPD officers said the case of is something no one touches because Ogre hunts the loved ones of those who try to chase him. For Jim Gordon, it seems he will see himself in a tight spot in the next episode as Ventimiglia's character sets his eyes on Barbara (Erin Richards).
Ogre is targeting beautiful single ladies and then kill them. At first, he will try to win their hearts, bring them into his loft and then suddenly he will lose his mind and decide, maybe it is fun to kill those girls.
What are the things that made Ogre snap? What is his motivation? Is he really a bad guy. In the comics, Ogre, who will be seen in three "Gotham" episodes, is a genetically altered man who just wants to get justice from those who experimented on him and his brother. In the Fox TV series, he has different story and Ventimiglia is thinking maybe is really not that bad.
"Playing someone that is more selfish than selfless is fun. At the same time, I never wanted to make a guy who is without humanity, without some kind of human quality. Luckily, the words on the page helped me out with that. He's (Ogre/Jason Lennon) a guy who is looking for love. He is looking for a partner," Ventimiglia told People when asked about the difference of his character in "Heroes" and in "Gotham."
When asked if Jason will ever change, Ventimiglia said it might be a closed door for his character.
"I think that there are some people you can't necessarily reprogram. I think that there's a degree where you have to give someone an opportunity to prove that they see a different side of life, but at the same time, some people are just evil. We all have within us the capability to be completely deplorable and evil. Like, what are those things that trigger that and allow us to explore that darker side?"
The Batman-prequel show will return tomorrow for the episode titled "Under the Knife" with Milo Ventimiglia still as the main villain. Read full "Gotham" episode guide by clicking here.
