Sylar confesses…uh, i meant, Zach Quinto was interviewed
The man behind Sylar was finally revealed two episodes ago, but his presence has been felt since the start of the season.
We got to know him at “Six months ago” as this mild-mannered watchmaker Gabriel Gray who got obsessed with consuming other people’s abilities to feed a need for significance and power.
“The sad part is, he’s initially well-intentioned. He wants to improve his life,” Quinto said. “He wants to make a difference. He wants to matter. Through the process of realizing how to do that, he gets blinded and loses himself in the pursuit of it and goes a little crazy — ‘a little’ being an understatement.”
“When Horn Rimmed Glasses (a k a Claire’s dad) gets me in captivity, he’s kind of merciless in trying to get at the root of what I’m doing and why I’m doing what I’m doing,” Quinto said of Sylar’s Lecter-like incarceration. “You really see (Sylar’s) anger, the darkness that comes out. I don’t like being in captivity, and I don’t like being overpowered.”
Evil is lurking in this killer’s mind.
