Congrats on Supergirl being picked up. Having read that you are a comic book fan, was Hank Henshaw a character you ever envisioned playing?

 

DH: Not at all. Never. I didn’t even know the character existed to be honest with you. I was an incredible Hulk fan. I was into Superman and the Superman mythology, so the character of Hank Henshaw was a surprise to me than Cyborg Superman. I’m very excited about it. We have a long way to go before we get to what he eventually becomes. He’s a really driven character and having been blown up in Homeland and blown up in Spooks: The Greater Good, I’m delighted that Hank Henshaw is indestructible. So, I won’t be getting blown up anytime soon. That’s very pleasing.
