“Robin Lord Taylor is a fantastic actor.”
“I am a huge fan of 'Batman'. As a kid watching it, there are certain things that I'm not going to latch onto as much as when I've gotten older.”
“I think, a lot of times, network shows are under a lot of mandates. There's a lot of moving pieces. There's a lot of money. There's a lot of people who are going to be disappointed if anything goes wrong.”
“I can quote every single line in 'The Big Lebowski' from start to finish. That's what happens when you see a movie two dozen times.”
“God, I don't think I could give advice when such other incredible actors have done it before me and done such amazing things. I think it would be unfair of me.”
“Filming is such a nerve-wracking and stressful process for me. I love it so much, and it's so fun, but I never have a time to fully appreciate it until after I'm done and I get to step back and look back at it.”
“I was home-schooled for my entire high school experience, so I never went to prom.”
“There's this character, Theo Galavan, who becomes the ringleader for the revolution of villainy in the city of Gotham. He becomes this mentor figure for Jerome that really inspires him to go off the deep end, and it's really fun.”
“To work with anyone you admire and respect, and have for a very long time, is a surreal thing.”
“One of my favorite things, coming of age, reading comics, was these ideologies and these philosophies of these characters. Seeing those on the page really represented in amazing ways some of my favorite 'Batman' comics like 'The Killing Joke' or 'The Dark Knight Returns.'”
“I grew up watching movies and television, and one day when I was really young I told my mom I wanted to become an actor, and she was really supportive and got me involved in local theater and commercials. From there I moved up to auditioning for movies and television.”
“I'm always happy to support the gay community.”
“I play drums and guitar, I snowboard, I do martial arts and acrobatics. I go to the movies every Friday.”
“I think I heard about 'The Giver' being made from when I was 11 or 12 years old. When I got the audition for this movie, I already knew that Meryl Streep was attached to it, and Jeff Bridges, obviously.”
“Penguin is this interesting figure within the city of Gotham. He's this guy who has worked in the shadows and publicly. He's skirted the line between lawful and completely chaotic or villainous. He's risen and fallen multiple times in the ways that pretty much no other character can dream of.”
“You can't be too concerned with the philosophical meanings of the character and how it will affect everything else.”
“One of my favorite movies of all time is 'Fargo.'”
“I love puppies, and I love animals in general. Besides that, I do martial arts: extreme martial arts. I also play real guitar and drums, and sing. And I'm taking some college classes, hoping to major in English and creative writing.”
“People are attracted to confidence and a commitment to ideas, no matter what those ideas are. People can gravitate towards something being said passionately or violently or expressively.”
“It seems like the requirements for my characters are that I have to be either mentally ill or disturbed in some way, or I have to be physically beaten. It's in my contract.”
