What was your first reaction when you heard you were being offered the role of The Riddler?
You know, I’m not a jump-around-the-house kind of person. I’m a quiet, “holy-shit” kind of person. But to be honest, until I read the script, I was quite cautious. Then a few pages in, I knew I was in really good hands. Matt [Reeves] really opened the door for me by beginning with an interpretation of this character that I don’t think has been seen before. Which is scary, but I think mostly exciting, because it gives us the chance to really go somewhere.
