We talked to Gotham’s Charlie Tahan about what goes into creating one of the creepiest characters on TV.
TonightsGothamwill pull us even further into the fear-driven world of The Scarecrow.
You know,Gothams specialty.
How didGothamdo it with Jonathan Crane/Scarecrow?
We had a chance to chat with Charlie Tahan, the 19-year-old actor behind the Scarecrow mask.
I was surprised by how much time has past, Tahan told us over the phone.
It feels like it was last year, but it was, like, three years ago.
We have Tahans high school friend Colin to thank for helping.
Colin is a huge Batman, and specifically Scarecrow, fan, according to Tahan.
I think people like that version a lot.
And yeah, honestly, I kind of give a shot to impersonate my friend.
For Tahan, the challenges of creating a character while wearing a mask are balanced by some perks.
So that was nice.
I think it seems like Jonathans gone, but its still his body and his brain, said Tahan.
I dont think hes a completely lost cause and Gordon in the second episode proves that.
Id probably see a lot of things, said Tahan.
Id probably see an airplane since I dont really like flying that much.
Id probably be having a plane crash or something.
Hopefully, Tahan steers clear of the Scarecrows fear juice.
He is a busy actor.
