His performance earned him his first Emmy nomination. John Glover soon found himself cast as a series of notable villains such as the pornographer-blackmailer in "52 Pick-Up," the mad scientist Dr. Jason Woodrue in "Batman & Robin," a manic TV executive in "Gremlins 2: The New Batch" and a drunken murderer in "Masquerade."
