We had a chance to talk to Jeremy Jordan, aka Winn Schott, about the apparent death of Toyman. Does he think his character’s dad is actually gone for good? “Yeah, I think he’s dead,” said Jordan. “I do. I mean, listen, I’m always up for a surprise, but generally when you’re found dead in your cell in prison or on the news, I think it’s harder to fake that. But granted he did bribe a prison guard who was the villain of the episode to take his place, so you never know who else he could have gotten under his belt.” Truthfully, I don’t have much narrative time or energy invested in the character of Toyman past his relationship to Winn, but I also wouldn’t be surprised if he popped back up at some point. Everyone knows that, if your character isn’t killed on screen (and, even sometimes if he or she is), then there’s a strong possibility that they will be back—especially in the superhero genre. What does that mean for Winn’s storyline in the rest of Supergirl Season 3? “A few things start to happen in the next few episodes where Winn… Winn’s life is constantly being threatened on the show, but I think in the next few episodes, it starts to be a little bit more real to him,” teased Jordan, “the idea that life is impermanent, and the threats that surround him are very, very real. And has he gone as far as he can go before, in this line of work inevitably something’s gonna happen to somebody. And has he succumbed to that?” Yikes! Well, now I’m kind of worried about poor, sweet Winn.
