But we won’t get to see him until the second half ofSeason 2. It isn’t known if Hugo Strange’s connection toArkham Asylumhas changed between then and now, but we’ll find out early next year.
While responding to a fan on his Twitter page,B.D. Wongrevealed that he believes Hugo Strange’s debut will come on February 29, but he isn’t totally sure at this point. The first photo he revealed features several different looks for Hugo Strange, but he added that the producers still aren’t sure what look they should go with. The actor added he may not know for sure until “the last minute,” while teasing, “This guy is definitely into gas masks and water sports. Be afraid.”
