Henry Czerny to play Toyman in Supergirl

October 27, 2015 by Gary Collinson

Ahead of tonight’s premiere, Comic Book has revealed that Henry Czerny (Revenge) is set to play Winslow Schott – a.k.a. Toyman – in CBS’ Supergirl series.

The official character description from Warner Bros. reads: “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.”

Winslow Schott made his first appearance as a Superman villain way back in Action Comics #64 in 1943.

Supergirl premieres on CBS tonight.
