Gotham: Cory Michael Smith on Ed's Evolution and "Shocking" Reveals

We all know Gotham Season 5 is going to be insane.

When we last left The Riddler, he and Lee and killed each other in a bizarre, yet romantic Romeo and Juliet moment.

Penguin had taken them to Professor Strange to work his magic.

Riddler now finds himself in a state of confusion, blacking out with no knowledge of where he's been or what he's done.

At the New York Comic Con this past Fall, Cory Michael Smith sat down to share his thoughts on Ed's evolution and what we can expect from him in the new and final season of Gotham.

He said Jim, Penguin, and Riddler will once again cross paths and it's going to be an "intense environment."

"Gotham breeds crazy," he said, "and it requires crazy to survive."

He adds, "There are some events that really rock Gotham, and it's really shocking when you realize who's responsible and who's controlling things."

That's quite the tease, and we can't wait to see how it's all going to end.
